After spending the last year and a half working from home, I need some reminders about how to get dressed up again, so I’m relying on an office capsule wardrobe more than ever. In the mornings, I don’t like to spend time thinking about what I’m wearing. Instead of trying on endless outfits, I would rather spend my time sipping a morning latte, catching up on the news, and scrolling through the latest updates on my Instagram feed. To cut back on the time I’m spending deciding on what I’m wearing to work, I’ve narrowed down my options to some key office essentials to develop an easy work capsule wardrobe.Â
Ahead, see the 18 pieces I rely on for my outfits to wear to the Who What Wear office or for smarter days working at home. I will admit that these are pieces I wear to a fashion-centric work environment (that take the latest trends into mind), so they may not be suitable for every workplace, but you can tailor them to your particular workspace. Go on to see my outfits and shop the workwear staples I can’t live without.
I tend to invest in great basics that I can wear and re-wear them regularly.
A black blazer elevates a simple outfit like a T-shirt and jeans but can also be layered over slip skirts or midi dresses.
I gravitate toward T-shirts with a slightly boxy, oversized silhouette.
There’s a reason a pencil skirt is a classic office-wardrobe staple.
Though you might opt for a more subdued style in some workplaces, I like to wear an updated take on the classic.
I replaced my flimsy canvas carryalls with a leather tote bag, which instantly makes my work outfits feel more pulled together. If you end up carrying your laptop and other items back and forth from your home to the office, I recommend finding a great bag to use on the regular.
A timeless work bag you can use forever.
Few things are as easy to throw on as a matching set. Trouser suits are great, but I also love a cropped bottom.
Classic prints like plaid are a personal favourite for officewear because they always read well put together.
How stunning is this as a set?
Once you hit the cooler months, refined outerwear is an easy way to finish an outfit. A long double-breasted coat is a perfect thing to throw over just about any look.
A tailored leather blazer is a key piece I rely on to pull together so many looks.
