Helping women love what they wear on a budget

What I Wore- Casual Work Week

September 17, 2016 by Katie Haller

I hope everyone had a great workweek.  I’m so happy that the weekend is here.  The last couple of weeks have been so busy, I’m looking forward to spending a quiet weekend at home with my boys.

As promised, I’ve been trying to step up my work week wardrobe a bit.  The weather is finally cooling down, so I can actually wear more of the clothes in my closet.  This week I kept it simple for work, as always.  I feel like these days a lot of people have a casual work dress code like mine.  My outfits are good ideas if you have a relaxed work dress code.  Because I work with kids and I’m also a mom, my work looks are also great if you’re a stay at home mom or work as a nanny.  Just because you’re around kids all day doesn’t mean that you can’t dress cute. Right?

Here are my work outfits from this week.

Top- Kohl’s
Leggings- Forever 21
Necklace- Nordstrom Rack
Shoes- Target

I have always loved cardigan sweaters. Lately I’ve been wearing them buttoned up, which is an easy way to update the style and wear it in a new way!
