How-To Style Guide: Coral For The Office
Color palette can be the difference between a good and extraordinary look! It’s true- color means everything in our world. The right color can brighten your mood, put your anxieties to ease, or even make you more attractive in someone’s eyes. Sound like magic? Well, it’s a little more about science and psychology- but I won’t get into that! The truth is if you want to transform an ordinary look into an amazing one, start imagining colors in pairs.
My favorite pair of colors right now is coral and tan. I can’t tell you why- when I see it, I just think ‘wow!’ Coral is such a bright, fun color for the summer. But depending on how conservative your office is, you may be pushing the envelope a bit. I toned down the vibrance of the dress by pairing it with pretty neutrals- light gray, tan, and gold accents. This makes it more office friendly and you don’t have to worry about being too bold.
The coral dress is a LC Lauren Conrad textured cut-out fit and flare dress from Kohl’s. I absolutely love it! It has a nice, flattering fit as most fit and flare style dresses do. It’s definitely a silhouette that flatters many different body types! It’s made of a light, cotton fabric that is comfortable and perfect for the warmer weather. You can throw a blazer or leather jacket over it in the spring, and rock bare arms during the hot summer. I loved it so much I bought it in blue, too!
I paired it with my light grey LC Lauren Conrad blazer. For jewelry, I chose my gold rose pendant White House Black Market necklace and tan La Mer Collections wrap watch.
This is my favorite new bag! It’s Dana Buchman’s Hillary Satchel from Kohl’s. It’s a classic silhouette and it’s really spacious. The top is pretty open, so I can easily access the contents of the bag without fumbling. The tan peep-toe flats are probably my favorite spring shoes. The knot design is so cute and I can show off my pedicure. I’ve had these shoes for 5+ years and they’re still in great shape!
love how you paired the purple blazer with the dress.
