See a pattern here? #FashionGirlProblems, indeed. As quickly as trends go in and out of style is how quickly you will forget about fall fashion. We’re all working women, so we’re naturalborn multi-taskers and planners, right? Luckily, at TheWorkingWardrobe, we love to foresee problems such as these and help eliminate them before they get out of hand. I took it upon myself to become your Fall fashion forecaster and personal style advisor so you can flawlessly incorporate the hottest INTERNATIONAL trends into your work wardrobe. I believe I have put together the ultimate fall style guide to help you reach internationally-acclaimed style status at your office.
Trend: Patterned Pant Suits Designers: Miu Miu, Anna Sui, Prada As much as we all appreciate Miuccia Prada for taking a standard business suit and transforming it into a wearable Pablo Picasso painting, organized chaos doesn’t always translate well to the typical office environment.
The trick to making this bold trend work for your work wardrobe is to incorporate at least one solid piece into the ensemble to act as a neutralizer. Because patterned pants are so popular right now, I used the daring pattern on the pant instead of the blazer. Also, from a practicality standpoint, patterned pants can be mixed and matched more effectively with other items in your closet. To incorporate another popular fall trend, I mixed contrasting patterns with a button down shirt to go underneath the blazer. And, instead of pairing the pants with a matching blazer as Miu Miu and Anna Sui did on the runway, I swapped it for a solid-colored plum blazer. Keep in mind that sporting a patterned business suit is a stylish way to wear fall’s boldest and trendiest colors. Have fun with your look by
