THIS LOOK
But now let’s talk about this look because I’m sorta obsessed. I’m noticing a ton of kimono style tops in the storefronts and in the magazines. I wasn’t sure at first how I’d be able to incorporate this fall trend into my work wardrobe, but then I found this silk blazer that felt very office appropriate. I love that it is black, but not boring and that it fits slightly longer (which I find to be a flattering style.) It feels cool without being “costume like” – which is important whenever you’re trying to take a new trend into the office. If this one felt a little too loud for you, I also loved this kimono top from Topshop. This one is also under $100, which is better for something so trendy that may not last you more than a season or two.
The pants are my absolute favorites – tell me if I wear them too much!! – the Rag and Bone Simone pant. They are a little bit of a splurge, but if you are updating your wardrobe for fall, you should definitely consider these pants. They are the most comfortable pair of pants I own and feel like I’m wearing leggings. Because the bottom of the pant is not skin tight around the ankles, though, they look like formal slacks. Yes, I know, I have an obsession. But seriously, check them out!
