Work Wardrobe

Hi everyone!! I actually attempted to do this post as a vlog, however I think I am not ready for vlogging just yet! So I am going to stick to my blog posts! If you left me a comment in the past I haven't seen them because blogger was being very annoying and wasn't letting people comment.

I have recently bagged a lovely internship in a skin care boutique in Chelsea (YAY ME). For all of you who don't know Chelsea, it's known to be a high class area, so I need to look the part (or at least try). I know you all must be sick of hearing about my sister who has taken my whole wardrobe, but I have to mention it once more. Due to everything in my wardrobe being stolen, I have been left with one jumper which is now losing its colour (making it look like I never wash it - trampish behavour) and two dresses I had purchased from Thailand one year ago. I was actually out in Thailand for a summer school program, studying Marketing Communications in their most prestige University in Bangkok. While I was out there I got to go SHOPPING (of course) and I got these two cute dresses, which do not fit into current trends unfortunately - SO, sadly when I went shopping with my boyfriend (our FAVOURITE thing to do) I was REALLY embarrassed *hang my head in shame*.

I got some great clothes for my internship which I wanted to share with you all, so here goes - everything which I bought for my work wardrobe!

 
Firstly this adorable 'cable pom pom hat' - OK so it's not REALLY for work it's more for the coming cold which is already beginning to take over London. I have always wanted a hat like this and this was just perfect, it's good for keeping my ears warm too, so thumbs up from me!

Brand: Topshop
Price: £14.00

These trousers were a perfect fit for me! Because I'm quite curvaceous and short I always find it difficult to find the right trousers - but Zara had all the right stuff. Usually I don't shop it Zara because I always find it out of my price range but on this occasion they seem to have the best garments for work. Also, because Winter is now here I think I would feel a lot more comfortable and warmer in trousers at work rather than a dress. I love the checked design and the colours - it's black and grey so I can match it up with a wide range of colours.

Brand: ZARA 
Price: £29.99

These trousers are the same type as the one above, but the design on the material is different. You can't see from this picture but I would say it has a stoney or marble design. They are just perfect for work and again can be matched up with loads of different colours.

Brand: ZARA
Price: £29.99

If you read one of my earlier posts, you'll probably know I was on the look out for a good coat. Although I was obsessed with the Burberry coat from their latest collection, unfortunately I couldn't find anything similar to it. This is a beautiful trench coat, again from Zara. I have always wanted a trench coat because I feel it always compliments your body and outlines your curves (which I definitely have). The colour I chose is a beige/off white colour, it's comfortable to wear and is actually warm.

Brand: ZARA
Price: £69.99

This is a CUTE shirt I got from Forever 21. I have become a little too obsessed with browns and tea colours which had lead me to pick up a lot of shirts this colour. However this was the one I decided to keep because I love the ruffle on the shoulders and the two black strings which come down from both sides, allowing me to make a cute little bow. It's perfect for work and I could also wear it day to day with a pair of jeans.

Brand: Forever 21
Price: £16.75

 This is a lovely colour, it was actually chosen by my boyfriend *surprised* - sometimes it can be a good thing having your boyfriend around when you're shopping but other times they just chose the worst things (which also happened). There is a cute pleated detail from the shoulder to the elbow, which you can't see in this picture but it gives the shirt a really nice touch. I love the buttons on it because it looks like mini studs which is a craze at the moment - I would also like to add that although the buttons are gold they aren't a tacky gold.

Brand: Forever 21
                                                Price: £19.75

This is different from the other two shirts I chose, that's because I wanted something different and I've had this new love for the colour pink. The design on this shirt is very different, it's flowers with the petals being holes in the shirt (obviously I would have to wear a strap top underneath). I like the colour and the design - Perfect!

Brand: Forever 21
Price: £16.75














I have always wanted a pair of wedges and I found the perfect ones for work. Firstly, they are Forever 21 shoes, their heels are SO unbelievably comfortable I don't even have words to explain! These are just plain black wedges which are perfect for work.

Brand: Forever 21
Price: £19.75





This is my new wardrobe for work now as well as day to day (on occasions) - What did you think of the clothes? I would love to know, leave me a comment below!
