Brat Girl Dressing At The Office – Embracing The New Cool
Every summer brings up a surprise when it comes to sartorial fashion. There has been the Barbie summer, the tomato girl summer, and now, thanks to Charli XCX’s brand-new album, it’s time for the brat girl summer or whatever little is left of the summer. It’s doing all the regular stuff while serving looks! While it’s not possible to wear all the brat girl stuff much like how the girls turned up at Charli XCX’s 2024 birthday party, however, you can still take out a few elements from their fashion book. Incorporate the same into your office wardrobe and make work fashion fun! Rethink your office fashion and make it trendy.
Goodbye Power Suits, Hello Waistcoat Trousers!
Okay, let’s get it straight: power suits may not go away in a hurry, but cooler and more trendier versions of them are certainly doing the rounds. Instead of the same old stuff, how about incorporating a fun and cheeky t-shirt with an oversized blazer? Or you can hop onto the trend of waistcoat trousers or skirts. These outfits can make fashion fun within the realm of professional fashion. Or to amp up your Friday dressing a little more by ditching the trousers and settling for flared denim. Enhance your office girl aesthetic with a messy bun, and unassuming studs. If you like what you read, then browse through the fabrics of The House of Textiles and buy the fabric to make your kind of power suit.

Smart dresses for the win
Office wear dresses don’t have to be typical. Instead, you can experiment with different hemlines and collars of the dresses. A dress in knitted fabric is one of the more trending ways of achieving a classy, perfect look. Throw in a blazer if it gets too stylish for your regular office environment. Ditch the heels to settle for Mary Jane shoes or brogues to tone down a stylish dress. A ponytail can tame the flyaways and achieve a neat office look. You can also wear printed dresses and offset the same with a cool monotone blazer. Small hoops or studs, delicate necklaces, and a watch can tick off the accessory list. You check out this neutral shaded fabric from The House of Textiles to create a smart office-appropriate dress.

Colour-Coded Office Wear Looks
Office wear doesn’t always have to be the same old colours like navy and beige. You can experiment with different colours without going overboard. You can also pair bright colours with pastel shades to tone down the brightness of your outfit, yet manage to add a pop of colour to the outfit. A few unusual colour combinations to try are an ochre shirt with a brown pantsuit and a light green shirt with a leafy green blazer and skirt. Do you get the gist? Now you can experiment with different colour schemes, and that will surely stun your colleagues and clients. You can also add a pop of colour to your outfit with your shoes. Experimental colours like neon can bring out the zest in the otherwise boring outfit.

Conclusion
While it is always fun to experiment with different styles and colour combinations, remembering too much all of a sudden, isn’t going to work. Instead, go slow and incorporate one thing at a time if your office is a little stern on the fashion front.
