Have you thought about your winter work wardrobe?

3 August 2011

The summer months bring bright colours and light layers and a new found confidence to show some skin, however all that changes with the dark nights and even duller days.

Though it may not be the greatest weather for wearing dresses, with the help of some cute blazers and office-appropriate heel

s, your a/w work wardrobe can still remain fun, professional and of course with that added hint of sexy-sophistication that sets off the green-eyed girls in the office and is just the right distraction for stealing some make attention.

Ted Baker is a great designer for getting office looks right and this is just another example. The waist is tight enough to show off what you've got but teamed with the length keeps it perfect for brightening up any office. Simply accessorise with your blackberry and some well chosen stilettos and you're ready for anything work throws at you! £159.

The mid-maxi length of this office appropriate number is very trendy. We'll be seeing a lot of different cut lengths next season, so you'd be making a fashion forward decision in snapping up this from Bank for £24.99. Make a statement with some different coloured shoes to keep it fresh and pop!

Alexander Wang has a great collection at Liberty London and this is one of the dresses available. The grey stripes are professional, but the shape keeps it interesting if you're looking for something different to wear to work. The mid-sleeves are also great for autumn as they'll keep off some of the brisk chill and will still look good under a fitted blazer. The gathered material at one side is a lovely detail for those wanting to show off their curves! £125.

The maxi is more versatile than we would believe. This beauty from Miss Selfridge has some great office potential (depending on where you work.) It aims to keep everything covered, flatter your figure and all the while has the air of 'office optional' to it. Wear with some cute loafers, boy-fit blazer and chunky scarf for warmth and style. All for £20.
