The Office

Posted by ALDO Insider on November 10, 2008 in Style Guide by Occasion

From Monday mornings to casual Fridays, you want options that take you from the boardroom and beyond.  Stay a step ahead and pull together a look that fits the agenda in style!

For Her

Don’t skirt the issue – simply put, skirts are hot! Waistlines are rising and fitted blouses are back. Forget prim and proper and think tailored, sexy, and chic in fitted silhouettes, ruffles, covered buttons and chiffons.  Colors are jewel-rich in sapphire blue, deep plum and soft amethyst.

Wear this look with the mid heel pump – it’s back and better than ever! Peruse options like contoured wedges and block heels, round-toes and vintage treatments. Opt for smoky grays and glossy blacks as the ideal complement!

Come Friday, pull out your favourite fitted blazer and layer over a light tank or simple top, add a thin scarf and finish it off with a crisp pair of denim jeans – skinnies and wide legs can both apply for the job of pulling this look together.

And don’t leave home without a great oversized tote or structured satchel.  
Who knew weekdays could be so wonderful.  It’s easy when you’re the most
stylish candidate!

For Him

Navy is the new black.  Yup, and relax, it’s actually just as easy to wear. Start with a staple like a navy blazer. Wear with a fitted dress shirt and add on a V-neck for a more relaxed look. Pair with a great pair of tailored khakis; – think cleaner fit and front panel. A bit of sheen or brushed cotton can make all the difference. Even corduroy is re-appearing, so don’t be afraid to welcome back this familiar friend into your wardrobe. It’s great in grey too! And corduroy blazers are perfect with dark denim for casual Fridays. 

Pair this look with a classic pair of loafers.  This season’s top picks are offered in simple finishes, luxurious materials and with impressive stitch detailing. Another great choice is the low-key ankle boot for a style that wears well beyond the office. 

Be sure not to forget about your everyday essentials - a great watch keeps you on time and a leather messenger bag can double as a laptop holder - a must-have for the modern-day multi-tasker.
