Dress || Heels || Clutch || Bracelet
Welcome to the first day of April! Now that a new, Spring month is here, I’m so ready to embrace the season and pepper in as many bright colors as I can, even at the office. Teachers aren’t always known for dressing up. We tend to be more partial to comfy leggings and flats, but it’s still fun to look more corporate, especially when a dress this fun is involved!
This gorgeous dress is from J. Crew Factory and is a new favorite for the season. The kelly green is bright, cheerful, and even prettier in person. If you’re not looking for such a statement color, it’s also available in navy, and would make for a great office staple. Whichever you pick, you really can’t go wrong because this little number is as flattering as can be.
The secret to pulling off such a dramatic statement color in a more traditional setting is to let the color stand on its own, without competition. By keeping the rest of your accessories neutral, you create a very professional look that is perfect for Spring and even into Summer. For this particular shade of green, I opted for my go-to black heels from Sam Edelman. If you need a layering piece, I love the idea of crisp white blazer, like this one from J. Crew.
Bright work-ready pieces are not just limited to jewel colored dresses. You can sprinkle in fun hues with blazers, pants, skirts, or even heels. A fun accent scarf can also go a long way. You can shop my favorite picks below and be sure to let me know your favorite way to bring a touch of color to the office.
Love from NYC,
Katie
