Transitional Workwear

I find myself saying “What the heck do I wear today?” when checking the weather lately in the morning. You know the days. It’s cold in the morning and then by the end of the day you’re sweating outside in your layers. This is what is referred to as a transitional time. Its the times during the year as the seasons seem to be like a pendulum swinging back and forth. You get a taste of spring one day and the next you’re freezing and wondering if you should buy another coat or pair of snow boots. Bikinis are staring at you as you shop around the Target aisles, but you’re still layered up in scarves and boots. While I’m confused on the reg, I find myself struggling with what to wear to work most during this time of year, so today’s ‘Workwear Wednesday’ post is all about transitional workwear.

A trench has to be one of the most classic, yet versatile pieces of clothing. You can legit wear it year round. I layer over and under it during the colder months and in the summer I wear it on a rainy day. A trench is timeless.

If this dress is a little too short for your preference in the workplace, you can always add tights underneath. I have a long torso, so dresses tend to be shorter on me. Another option is a lower heel. This dress comes in twelve amazing colors and is under $50. It can be worn so many ways and it is by far one of my best purchases! Dress it up or down, wear it to work or for play, but you can restyle this piece again and again. It’s so comfortable that I find myself reaching for it no matter what my mood.

I’ve talked about this bag before, but it’s my favorite for work and for travel. It has a padded compartment for your lap top and tons of organized compartments inside. I use different ones for headphones, chargers, etc. It has a strap inside that easily clips to your keys so you don’t use them, a place to keep a water bottle or coffee mug, and a place to store pens. I swear, they thought of everything! It comes in several colors, including a light blue one that is just screaming to be carried around this spring. I’ve gotten so much use out of this bag and know that I will continue to for so long!

We booked our hotels for our trip to France this coming summer last night. We are going to Paris for a week and then down to the South of France for a few days. We are so excited! We’ll be ringing in our one year wedding anniversary in Paris. Actually, now that I’m thinking about it I also confirmed hotel stays for an upcoming trip to Las Vegas and to Miami this week. Lots of fun travel ahead! I swear, having travel to look forward to gets me through tough work days or weeks. That and lazy weekends. I’m an either end of the spectrum kinda gal! haha

I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine’s Day today! We are celebrating by grabbing drinks with one of my best girlfriends who is newly single and then going to eat a good sushi dinner. We don’t get too caught up in the occasion, but I do love any excuse for a good meal. No matter what your plans, I hope you spend it with loves ones indulging a bit! XO
