What to wear to the office: 5 smart casual outfits for every week
Smart casual office outfits for women and men: five combinations built from a few real pieces, and how to see them on yourself before buying.
Most offices now say “smart casual” and mean “please do not wear gym clothes”. Five pieces cover a whole week: a blazer, straight trousers, a knit, a white shirt and clean shoes.
5 outfits
Monday: blazer, white tee, straight trousers. Tuesday: fine knit polo with pleated trousers. Wednesday: white shirt, dark jeans, loafers. Thursday: a knit dress or a knit with a midi skirt. Friday: the blazer again over a striped top and light denim.
Colours that mix
Keep the base neutral: navy, grey, beige, white and black. Add one colour you love in the knit or the shirt. Everything then goes with everything, and you buy less.
