Building an work wardrobe: Aritzia

Categories Selfie Sundays, Uncategorized, , , , 22 Comments on Building an work wardrobe: Aritzia

One of my biggest challenges has always been finding clothes I feel comfortable in, and that look appropriate for work – generally, I enjoy wearing yoga pants and graphic t-shirts.  But recently, I started a new job where I meet with other business professionals on a daily basis – and needles to say, I need nice fashion for work.

I can’t buy a whole new wardrobe at once, but if Stacey and Clinton (What Not to Wear) have taught me anything,  it’s to collect solid pieces, that you can mix and match. I hope you can join me as I work to develop my own style, and please leave your suggestions and related links.

My first new items of clothing include Aritzia’s Talula Exeter Blazer, dubbed a school boy blazer with a snug fit, and a couple of coloured T. Barton tanks, available for only $35 at Aritzia. They’re  perfect for layering under sweaters, shirts and evidently blazers.

  1. Love the outfit! 🙂 I need to be better about getting solid pieces to mix into my wardrobe.

    I was going to reply to your comment on my blog (thank you, btw!) but you’re a noreply blogger! 🙁 Google+ is weird about that. So, when you leave a comment on a bloggers blog, we cannot reply to you. If you didn’t mean for that to happen, lmk and I can show you how to fix it so I (and everyone else) can reply to your lovely self!!! 🙂

    1. I had no idea that G+ did that, I would love some advice on how to resolve that problem. That would actually be amazing. Thank you, Gayle! 🙂

    1. Np, Jamie. You have an adorable blog, and I noticed you had some DIY-type posts, which I always enjoy … they always give me inspiration for gifts and help me not break the bank!

  3. Hey!

    I’m just popping over quickly it’s 2am and why I’m still up I’m not sure – but I wanted to say thank you for stopping by my blog – I’m now following you as well and I really can’t wait to read more from you I love your clean layout, your pictures are amazing and I just really love your style :).

    1. Awww well, I know sometimes I find it hard to sleep too. I read your About section, and I am glad you took something negative and made it a positive. Obviously, you have been inspiring people with your posts because I see the great community you’ve managed to built. I hope to achieve for the same, one day.

    1. Thank you so much, Martina. I am hoping to get the blazer in a few more colours this season! 🙂

  12. From this man’s point of view (and a non-fashionista), you (as in “you”) make the clothes and you look like a young sophisticate. The smile is a perfect accessory. Enchanting. 🙂

    1. OOh why thank you, Phil! Your comments are so thoughtful, which as a blogger, I appreciate so much!
