Hello there darlings. Welcome to my little space on the internet. Hope life is treating you well. Welcome to a new week, after a long Easter break. Tbh, I'm not ready for to go back to work but seeing as I don't want to go broke, I have to be ready. And just in time for work tomorrow, I'm publishing this post incase you need some work outfit inspiration.

Today's post is about switching up the basic white and black combo. Gone are the days when this combo used to be a strictly choir uniform. You know the white shirt, black skirt with red beret/turban, yes that.

Today, white and black is a complete fashion statement if done well and I'll be giving you tips on how to switch things up so you make a statement of your own. Ready?

Go for an unconventional blouse/shirt. Try exaggerated sleeves, bell sleeves, asymmetrical cuts, peplum, shirts with detailed buttons, etc. Little details like these will make your outfit stand out.
Give your outfit a nice cut with the addition of a waist detail. This can be your belt, scarf, etc.
A red lipstick maybe. I know this is debateable but red lipstick against a white blouse is essentric and it screams class. Try it.
Add some drama with your shoes.
Pay attention to your accessories.
Your hair gotta bang sis.
