BLOGGED: Workwear pants! As we’ve been talking about business casual style, I have been building my own little business casual capsule. After all, in order to help you with work looks I actually need workwear. :P As a result, I tried on a bunch of workwear pants and I'm reviewing them today!

N&S summer sale!!! Deciding between these gorgeous, suuuuuper lightweight and very comfy statement earrings! http://liketk.it/2VhJn #liketkit @liketoknow.it

New arrivals from @nickelandsuede got me like 😍! CAN’T. EVEN. @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2GBfO

The BEST most COMFY statement earrings! I’ve always loved statement earrings, but I stopped wearing them for years because they were always too heavy and hurt my ears. Not these! These are all LEATHER, which makes them *incredibly lightweight* and easy to wear all day. They’re so comfy I even nap in them! 😆

These are also the best quality leather earrings out there. They never curl and never flip around like cheaper knockoffs do. They look amazing all the time!

They have tons and tons of styles, but these are some of my favorites and most-worn through out the years.

I usually wear size M.

BLOGGED: Last week I surveyed you guys asking what level of casual vs business your business casual environment was. It was so fun and helpful to hear more about your work environments.
.
Today on the blog, we are opening up that discussion further. I’m definitely NOT an expert when it comes to business casual style. But I do have input from over 1,000 PMTers to share!
.
We're talking about the range of business casual outfits, talking about a super simple outfit formula for business casual, and talking about how to adjust it to make it more casual or more business. Fun stuff!

You guys are encouraging, warm, and upbeat, and you make it fun to connect here, on Instastories, and through DMs!

BUSINESS CASUAL QUESTION! I’ve heard from over a thousand women about what’s appropriate in your business casual work environment and I can safely say this: It is ALL. OVER. THE. PLACE. Ranging from jeans being totally okay as business casual to no jeans but colored denim is okay (???—why does this make sense to employers? 🤷🏻‍♀️) to strict no jeans and closer to business professional and everything between. There is a spectrum of more casual business casual to more professional biz cas, all under the name of “business casual,” and every work environment has a different standard. It’s truly all over the place!
.
So, I’m curious. If you work somewhere with a BUSINESS CASUAL dress code (not casual, not business professional), which of the outfits above would fit your workplace? 1, 2, or 3? A combo of them? All of them?
.
I’m working on business casual Starter Kit Wardrobe Guides and want to know how casual or business-y most of you need to dress for work. 😊 TIA! http://liketk.it/2zT0U #liketkit @liketoknow.it #businesscasualstyle #puttingmetogether #pmtoutfits

If you work from home, do you still get dressed each day—or at least WANT to get dressed? 😆 I still get dressed everyday. Even if it’s not fancy and just jeans, a tee or a sweater, and earrings. (And fuzzy slippers of course. 😉) I feel like it kickstarts my mindset into “work” mode and helps me focus. If I don’t get dressed, I’ll spend my day meandering and wasting a lot of time.
.
My go-to combo is usually jeans and a striped tee or easy sweater. BUT one way to freshen up that combo is change the jeans to colored bottoms—just anything that’s not regular blue jeans. Super, super easy!
.
And if you have not heard me preach on the importance of colored bottoms yet, head to me blog, use the search bar, and type in “importance of colored bottoms” to find Part 3 of my Building a Remixable Wardrobe Series. It miiiight just blow your mind! 🤯
