Business majors have earned ourselves a reputation for having sharp wit, being smooth talkers, and generally looking like we’ve got ourselves together. If there’s one thing I learned by documenting a week’s worth of my outfits, it’s that I certainly dress the part. Here’s what I wore in a week!
Day 1:
RIP to the crazy weather we had a couple of weeks ago. I donned my favorite spring outfit (above) for a trip to Washington, D.C., before we slipped into a springtime polar vortex.
Day 2:
It was a cold, gloomy Monday when I had class and I honestly didn’t feel like putting together a real outfit. Styling my comfiest jeans and T-shirt combo with an army jacket, booties, and a trench coat kept me warm and made for a timeless outfit. After swiping on my favorite rollerball perfume and tossing my notebooks and iPad into my work tote, I was all set for class.
Day 3:
Today I had one class, my internship, and a community service event I was staffing after work. I pulled together another classic look, though this one was obviously more professional to accommodate the day’s schedule. Since I was putting forth a bit of extra effort, I also wore my favorite tinted moisturizer and longwear lipstick from Chanel before tackling the day ahead of me.
Day 4:
Another gloomy day, another trench coat, am I right? I classed up my jeans and sweater look with my favorite pair of loafers before heading out to my own birthday dinner with my best friend. Not only was I comfortable (Are you noticing how I prioritize comfort when picking my outfits?), but I also know I looked hella cute while fumbling with chopsticks and a delicious bowl of seared duck ramen. Yum.
For my fifth and final day of this weeklong challenge, I styled myself for another day at the office of my internship. What really made this outfit pop was the long waistcoat I picked up from a local boutique that I frequent. Combined with the leather booties and the printed Vera Bradley work tote that goes with anything, I felt prepared to slay at work.
As for documenting everything I wore during the workweek, I highly recommend it! It definitely gave me insight into how I actually structure my outfits and how I define my style. For me that means comfortable, classic outfits that are appropriate for wherever the day might take me. Tweet us a photo of your go-to outfit for class or work at @HerCampusDrexel!
