Incorporating White in Your Professional Wardrobe
By Danielle Gonzalez
Updating an office outfit can be as simple as adding a little white to give your business attire some pop. White on black especially adds a modern and polished tone to any ensemble. To spice up the classic black suit, a crisp white blouse underneath always does the trick, but to give the woman’s business suit some flair, go for an off white silk, it’s unexpected glamour adds a soft femininity. A dress with a bold white on black pattern is mature and fresh, paired with a black cardigan and black pumps makes its an understated power outfit. And don’t forget about the white or creme jacket. A long coat is more appropriate for dressier occasions and seen during the evening, but a cropped white jacket can be paired with any classic or trendy look in your professional wardrobe. Even white accessories such as a purse, jewelry, or scarf gives a striking impression that is impossible to ignore in its intensity.

Glad be of help, I wrote the article after reviewing my obsession with an all black wardrobe as well. Just because black is dark needn’t mean it isn’t fun or youthful.
