I am starting a new job in two weeks and have a week off in between during which I plan to do lots of shopping! It's a relatively senior corporate role so need to look smart, but need to walk 25 mins to do nursery drop off on the way
I have a wish list of things I think I need and would appreciate any recommendations:
- flat black knee high boots to wear to and from (and perhaps in) the office
- flat black shoes - loafers maybe - for warmer days
- smart black coat with hood for when it inevitably rains on the way to work
- nice bag either black or tan, large enough for fitting a laptop in ideally
- some basic black/navy/camel long sleeve tops to wear under sleeveless dresses if its cold
- I have lots of dresses for work but always on the lookout for more so if anyone has seen any bargains
I tend to wear simple styles in plain fabrics - dont like patterns except stripes and tend to wear black, navy or camel most of the time
Budget - Willing to spend £100-£150 each on boots, shoes, coat, bag. Maybe £50-£100 for dresses. £500-£600 ish in total. Have some birthday money and a nice bonus to spend!
Live in London so any shop is a possibility
Thanks!
