Friday Frocks: Work It, Girl.

By |August 19th, 2011|Friday Frocks, Why Did You Wear That?|

I know.  It’s Friday and the last thing you’d like to be doing is thinking about work.  However, it’s a reality that we all must face.  Having been lucky enough to work in fashion offices for most of my “career” I never really had to do the whole “work appropriate” attire thing.  You see, in many fashion offices skinny jeans are equivalent to trousers and even ripped boyfriend jeans will fly (pending we are selling them in store and they’re on trend).  That said, I know that many of you stylish sisters aren’t working in such lax office environments and must adhere to a certain “dress code.”  That in no way means that you must dress like a stuffy secretary.  Fortunately, there are plenty of fashionable frocks that won’t make your boss frown.

1. MICHAEL Michael Kors Sleeveless Zipper Dress, $99.99, 2. Calvin Klein Ruffle Front Sheath Dress, $118,  3. INC International Concepts Cowlneck Striped Dress, $69.50, 4. Black Halo Pattison Sheath Dress, $330, 5. XOXO Cap Sleeve Fitted Peplum Sheath, $39.98, 6. Single Belted Sheath Dress, $149, 7. DKNY Cherry Cap Sleeve Sheath Dress, $450, 8. Black Halo Keyhole Ruffle Sheath Dress, $349, 9. New York & Company Colorblock Dress, $64.95, 10. Calvin Klein Stretch Ruffle Sheath Dress, $89

Plop a blazer and sensible (but still chic) shoes on and you’re all set for the day.  When it’s time for happy hour, you’ll be able to transition smoothly from day to night.

It’s 5 o’clock somewhere, right?
