OOTD: Simple Workwear

Taking blog photos now the clocks have gone back is an absolute nightmare! I have to take the pictures in doors with so much lighting and they still look rubbish! I've been waiting for the weekend to take blog pictures, but as this is a workwear post I had to do this tonight! 

Doing something interesting but appropriate with workwear is really hard to do unless you work in a cool, London office! I like mixing dark trousers in different cuts e.g. culottes or skinny black jeans, with bright colours and different textures of tops. I also like dresses, but as I'm currently on a placement with children I have to get on the floor and play a every day, but then look sensible to talk to parents. dresses aren't practical.

This is my simple workwear look -  I'm wearing skinny trousers from Warehouse (who have a huge sale on at the moment!), a pink vest top from Warehouse (similar here), Brogues from Dorothy Perkins (similar here) and a tweed jacket from TK Maxx. I've accessorised it with some pink lippie and a really simple silver necklace c/o Marc Jacobs from Harvey Nichols

I have to show you a close up of this necklace - it's so delicate and interesting!
