Inspiration for informal office clothes

7 replies

Visiblyabove25 · 08/03/2025 20:02

After years of mostly home working, I’m starting a job based mostly in an office. From the interview, my impression is it’s quite relaxed, but I still want to use it as an excuse to get some new bits! I tend to like dresses with boots, but would like some nice trousers too… Brands I like include Emily&Fin, Louche, Joanie but I’m very open to suggestions! Any suggestions for places/ pieces to look out for?

Not much help, but where I work is casual and I wear dresses from my wardrobe or charity shop and DM -type boots

I like Plumo

If you’re considering something less ditsy for office wear have a look at:

Community Clothing Link is to trousers.

Or if you want similar to your own wardrobe but upgraded, you may like:

Palava Link to dresses.

This sounds like the beginning of rather a nice wardrobe. (Absent the Boden.)

@Visiblyabove25 ,MandS are good for smart looking stretchy pull-on trousers that are as comfortable as leggings. Supermarket clothes like Tu are pretty good too. Once you know what you like from the ££ brands, lookj for something similar but cheaper. Like with any brand, be a little fussy.
