MONDAY
In the absence of any work days in London this week or big meetings that I needed to get dressed up for, I started the week getting dressed with the prompt - ‘What would I wear to work if I worked in the Tibi office?’. I must have been watching one of the Tibi Style Classes as I got ready in the morning and just felt v.inspired by the whole thing. I love how Amy does oversized on oversized ALL THE TIME and it just works. So this was my take on that. It did mean that I was strutting around the house all day in a blazer and did it feel a bit bizarre eating my tuna salad in it? Yes! But from what I remember about Monday I got a lot done! And I felt good whilst I was doing it. Not something that I’d wear Monday to Friday if I was working from home, but it was fun to play dress up.
TUESDAY
I shared Tuesday’s outfit on Instagram and got a… erm, mixed response. And I get it. Looking back it’s all a bit busy. There was a A LOT of texture and if I was to do an outfit re-do I’d probably wear it with a tamer top, like my oversized black Toteme knit*. Something a bit plainer to make the trousers sing, but my thinking here was to be bolder than usual and push myself out of my comfort zone and sometimes it’s good to do that. You learn! And I learnt that a bolder piece with a softer quieter piece is an outfit formula that feels most like ‘me’. Good try, maybe next time…
