Grey Slacks - Victoria's Secret, Black Sweater - Mango, Heels - Lulu's, Bag - Michael Kors 

Shopping for work appropriate outfits isn't something I particularly enjoy, partly because the style of clothing can look uncomfortable and to be honest, boring.  I'm lucky to work in an office that is "business casual," however sometimes for meetings and things like that, it is nice to dress up a bit.  Usually I always go for a pencil skirt with a silk blouse because you can't go wrong but it is really useful to have a couple of good pairs of slacks that you can wear for work.  That is where these Victoria Secret slacks come in.  They offer structure, a great fit, comfortable material and the slits at the ankles gives a little touch of "unexpected-ness" that keeps the whole outfit from seeming too corporate and boring.  I swoon over little details like that because it is the small things that make all the difference. Also, another tip for work wear is to add a burst of color, either with your handbag or a bright scarf or nice piece of jewelry, to keep everything looking young and fresh. To find your perfect pair of slacks, check out Zara--they have some amazing cuts and styles (per usual).
