Valentine’s Day Work Outfit
Hey everyone! I thought after last week’s casual Valentines Day outfit, I would do something that is more work appropriate but still celebrates the day of love.
Again not anything skimpy or sexy (this is a work day after all!) but a play on red, pink and white.
As you can see from the pictures we were getting quite a bit of snow. It was gorgeous on Friday I totally should have taken some time out of my day to take pictures then but this is the reality of Winter in Canada. Either we are complaining about the snow, complaining about the cold, or wondering what the heck happened to Winter.
I am a bit of a walking JCREW advertisement with this outfit, which I totally didn’t realize until writing this up, because the sweater, pants and boots are all JCREW.
I think this outfit would be even more festive topped with a white coat but I decided to downplay the whole Valentine’s Day look with a navy peacoat.
Outfit details: Sweater JCREW (old, inexpensive option, similar & love this), pants JCREW Eaton Boy Trouser (sales), Boots JCREW (very old), Hat Club Monaco (sales), Broach, bracelet, necklace all vintage, other bracelet Joe Fresh, Peacoat Coat Zara (sales, only $40!)
Do you dress festively for Work? Or is that me and those who work with children?

Love the Valentine’s Day outfit! Great planning, I have a great pink blazer that I need to get some snaps of before Valentine’s Day comes and goes and it feels too late to post it!

So basically I love anything red, and those pants are fierce. I am going to have to invest in a pair! Pictures are brilliant with the snow and my goodness, you wore a pink I haven’t seen on adults in a long time — looks pristine and chic! Thanks for sharing on #RealMomStyle xo

I’m a new WAHM and in my former life I dressed up festively for holidays/occasions. I miss that part. I’ll have to make sure I do the same now that I’m at home! Love the pink and red duo…and gorgeous hat!

Thank You Lani! Even if you just put on a red sweater or something festive it will honour the day.
