Trying to up my style quotient, because if I'm being completely honest, I probably have the least exciting wardrobe in my office. What's everyone wearing? What's a staple you can't have missing in your wardrobe?

Love my jumpsuits. And my flannel shirts+pants. I don't wear the flannels as a shirt jacket, I like to rock them for what they are.

It’s a big mix where I’m at, some people are very trendy and stylish and others are more on the expected business casual side, myself included. Challenged myself before the summer to get some new and different pieces, some more summery dresses, but still work wear. Mixing those up with fun patterned belts. I say experience with a couple pieces and see what works for you.

A cozy ponte or sweater blazer is a great way to up your style game, whether you're dressing casually or business casually in the office. Comfy shoes and some colorful pieces that demonstrate your personal style or interests can be fun, too! Be creative! That's a perk of working in the creative space. People are more likely to love it when we think outside the box... even with out outfit choices!

I wear a lot of white and black because it always looks classy. I love Everlane, J Crew, and Eileen Fisher when I have the $$$ to spare. I'm attached to my Everlane linen trousers, and I have like 3 pairs in different colors lol. Quality is so good and they're so comfy

OP one thing I have been working on lately is collecting more staple pieces that I can wear with anything. I feel like I have a lot of exciting and fun clothes but then none of the staples to wear with them. So alot of my fun clothes don't ever get worn because I have nothing to go with them.

Fun shoes. Dying for a pair from charlotte stone. Can give a lot of personality to a basic outfit.
