The fabulousness of a great work dress

February 23, 2012 Afterwork

A great work dress for me is a frock that feels professional and polished when in the office and chic enough for heading straight out for drinks after work. An importnat factor is that said frock should be appropriate length. This is something I constantly have an issue with as I’ll find fashion-forward numbers that [...]

The magic of colourful pants

February 22, 2012 Autumn

Colourful pants. I was having a chat with a friend on the weekend who wondered aloud how the young people in her conservative workplace could think that bright red pants were appropriate. Sure, I hadn’t seen the offender myself but I insisted that colourful pants can be work-appropriate if styled properly – and today’s BusiChic [...]

February 19, 2012 Black Dress Project

In Week 7 of the Business Chic Little Black Dress (LBD) Project I add a light-weight trench to keep summer rains off my LBD. So what do you do when you’re ducking out for a coffee as it starts to the drizzle? I don’t always have a brolly on me, so I find it handy [...]

You’ve got heart (H-art)

February 16, 2012 Contemporary business wear

It’s the final image from my time spent with Liz from the Sustainable Living Festival as she handed out H-arts to busy Melburnians.

Kylie’s all-noir ensemble is interesting because her blazer is well-fitted, her blouse has lovely ruffle detail and an open-toe [...]

Another photo today from the Sustainable Living Festivals H-art campaign – activities of which seem to be popping up in media outlets all over town! I like Gizelle’s creative take on Contemporary Business Wear – it’s conservative enough for the office but interesting enough to stand out in the crowd. Normally I would not advocate [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day, BusiChic! If you’re feeling sceptical about my salutation then please, read on. First off some context: I get as excited about Valentine’s Day as the old Scrooge did about Christmas.
