Work Week Wardrobe: Color Me Purple

Happy Monday! As you might have noticed, I’m not the only one with a new look this week. Cocoa & Lace is modeling a new layout, designed to showcase each post’s content in a more clean, elegant manner.

Similarly, this week’s office attire starts with a simple foundation in order to highlight the main attraction: the color purple. Nude heels keep the look grounded in neutrality while ensuring that the purple peplum dress gets all the attention. The addition of a green bag compliments the bold color palate and plays up the fun factor without overdoing it. Rich tonal jewelry adds the perfect finishing touch for a dazzling week ahead.

Have a great day!

Work Week Wardrobe: Cloudy with a Chance of Polka Dots

Happy Monday! Despite the gray clouds looming over much of the country today, there’s never a reason to be without a little brightness in your wardrobe. Add a splash of fun to any forecast with whimsical polka dots laced in bold floral print. This skirt ties it all together with a few silk ruffles in vibrant purple hues. Patent leather pumps and a classic black cardigan make this look perfect for the office as you take on the week ahead.

Have a fabulous week!

Work Week Wardrobe: In Uniform

 

As we begin our wardrobe transition from summer to fall, layer up with these fatigue-inspired essentials: nautical navy, crisp white and army green. Build your outfit to outsmart Mother Nature by keeping simplicity at the core. A classic white blouse gets a fun twist with a navy tee and military jacket, topped off with neutral accessories. The look ensures that you’ll be ready to dress down for the heat or fight against the cool autumn breeze without sacrificing style.
