When I first started buying/wearing Liz Lisa, I used to think that wearing a pair of Liz Lisa pumps or using a Liz Lisa bag with my regular (non-Liz Lisa) work clothes was "incorporating Liz Lisa into my work outfit". Now, I feel like there's definitely a lot more obvious options for work attire! Some people are still crying for what used to be, but I'm definitely on the side of embracing what's in front of me especially because there's still plenty of the old spirit continuing.
I still used some non-Liz Lisa items in these coordinates (especially because I prefer non-Liz Lisa bags for these kinds of looks), but the main pieces and shoes are all Liz Lisa! I also tried not to repeat any of the items throughout the 9 looks, but there could definitely be more if I were to reuse a few ♡

In truth, I don't always dress like this for work, mostly because it's allowable for me to be slightly more casual/not always so strictly modest. Not everyone's work environment is as casual as mine, but I hope there's still some inspiration here for you! It's not all himekaji-type outfits but Liz Lisa doesn't only produce himekaji-type items which is something that I've really grown to embrace. There's definitely been a multitude of items over the last several years that can be easily worked into business casual outfits like these and I'm always happy to have more opportunities to wear my favorite brand.
To see what I most often wear to work on a daily basis, consider checking out my (bi-)monthly OOTD posts or my Instagram account! I hardly go anywhere besides my job, so most outfits I actually wear are for work.

omg these outfits are so cute in themselves, you could leave work and no one would think they were work outfits. Ahh, I am jealous that you can dress like this for work! I wouldn't want to change my job just so I could dress nice, but it would be an added bonus for sure! I love how you use cardigans, I really need to use mine more.
ReplyDeleteI definitely love to use cardigans to make an outfit a bit more "conservative" or "work appropriate"!
DeleteLove all these outfits! A lot of the simpler/more grownup styles work nicely for work. You look super cute in these outfits :D
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteSo cuuute! I wish I could wear this kind of stuff to work ;__; (have to wear a stupid uniform and khakis lol) The cardigans and purses are such a nice touch~ My goal is to work in a nice office and dress as fashionable as you!

Haha sometimes I think a uniform would be so much easier (and hopefully I'd spend less money on clothes!). Hope you find your ideal job soon!
DeleteGosh, so adorable. The prevalence of collared dresses is real (and loved). I feel outfit 1, 4 and 8 are things I could actually wear to the office, and in NYC where everyone is always in black, that's a real success. Thanks for another lovely post!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteYour wardrobe is goals😍😍😍

Haha it's just a lot of clutter.
DeleteThese outfits are all so pretty and classy! I wish I could more easily wear coords like this to work... I usually spend a decent chunk of my day in the lab, which requires closed-toe shoes and covered legs (plus involves a reasonable risk of getting gross stuff on yourself), so I usually don't bother, haha.
ReplyDeleteDo any of your co-workers wear cute or feminine styles that are at all similar to yours? Or are you a significant outlier in that regard?
I'm definitely lucky that my work environment is pretty forgiving! While my immediate department is relatively small, we work in an area that's shared with many other groups and a diverse collection of individuals but most are a bit on the older side and I think have bigger things to worry about than buying clothes like this and dressing with a purpose. I'm in the lower 10% in terms of age. For a bit, I was the youngest in the office haha.
