What I Wear To Work: Fall/Winter Edition

Just a simple edition of Ways to Wear this week. I work  (waitress) in a place where I need to wear all black. I love black but wearing it everyday?? It’s pretty hard going! I’m lucky enough to be able to wear whatever hair accessories or jewellery I like so that’s a big help! (If I couldn’t I think I’d be going crazy!) I also have a lot of fun choosing different scarves, bags and outerwear to wear in so at least I feel like I’m leaving the house in something different everyday.

I have three winter coats – a black, a cobalt blue and an orange. I wear my black coat probably 3 days out of 5. I know it’s kind of weird to choose black so often when I’m wanting a change from my work black. I think it’s especially important to have a great dark neutral coat though. The black goes with black and all the colours I absolutely love to wear!

For me I feel the greatest change in my look happens when I move the position of focus. So on Monday we focus on the scarf and bag – Tuesday on the hair and the colour of the coat – Wednesday the belt and gloves – Thursday the scarf and Friday the coat and bag. I also like to wear quite different colours/patterns from the previous day too.
I’ve happily worn just my three coats throughout the entire Fall/Winter here in Australia and I’m not bored with them yet.
I like how I look on Friday best. What about you? Which one is your favourite?

I choose items based on my own wardrobe – these are all from Polyvore though.  Most should be for sale (click on images to see their details) but they are a bit of a mix in price and location. 

I’m doing another post about coats tomorrow – ‘The 5 essential coats to have’ something like that. I came up with so many ideas in writing this post today.
