first so I'm typically a 31 in my 1:23 denim I'm in a 30. so you can tell it's 1:26 still oversized it's still easy to wear 1:29 I'm going to suggest you go down one 1:31 size from what you would typically wear 1:32 you're still going to get this great 1:34 expression of fit this wonderful wide 1:36 leg Great Wash nice white washed out for 1:41 summer but also appropriate for work 1:43 there is no deconstruction anywhere on 1:45 these jeans I know women like clean 1:48 jeans for work and then you've got this 1:50 great strong cuff what I love about this 1:53 is it makes your jeans look kind of more 1:54 like trousers right so you kind of get 1:56 more of that suiting feel I love love 1:59 this Jean highly encourage you to take a 2:00 little risk a little dare 2:02 um and get this wide leg jean into your 2:04 work assortment then you compare on some 2:07 of these every Basics so this is the 2:09 Kinley Blazer love this little blazer 2:12 really all of our every Blazers this 2:14 spring I am loving 2:16 um it's got great fit it's got a little 2:17 bit of a shoulder pad to give you a 2:19 little bit of a power suit up top 2:21 um judge up the sleeves and you've got a 2:23 great little basic then I had just have 2:25 on this every tank this Miley tank it is 2:28 black kind of a sheer feel with a little 2:32 I don't know if you can see this on 2:33 camera but it's got a little bit of a 2:35 nodding throughout here and also on the 2:38 sleeve it's gorgeous and it would also 2:40 be a great little date night time 2:42 um so great little pairing and then the 2:44 accessories so the heel this is by 2:46 Splendid and it's a great little block 2:49 heel so it's going to give you a lot of 2:50 comfort but also a lot of style and it's 2:53 in this really pretty gray so if you can 2:57 see it's not quite black it's like a 2:59 it's like a metal gray and it's 3:02 beautiful and I think just adds a lot of 3:05 flair to that Workwear and then just 3:07 little accessories by goryana I love my 3:10 goriana I've got my little Hoops in 3:12 um those are mine and then just layered 3:14 on two little snake chain and a little 3:16 CZ nice petite but does a little 3:19 Finishing Touch okay infusing more wide 3:23 leg into our Workwear but let's also 3:25 talk about work events right we have 3:27 work events we have different things 3:28 we're attending 3:29 um this would be a great little jumpsuit 3:32 this is actually a jumpsuit it's one 3:34 piece a great little jumpsuit that would 3:36 get some Double Wear 3:38 um in your wardrobe so let's first talk 3:40 about the jumpsuit this is by ever Eve 3:42 crushing it ever Eve designers this is 3:44 the Miley jumpsuit it's this great 3:47 cotton flowy wide leg pant so nice and 3:52 then it's paired back to this little 3:53 knit top it's a jumpsuit all one piece 3:56 so it's kind of a little bit bloused 3:57 here there's Pockets love the pockets 4:00 and then there's two little straps at 4:03 the top but you could definitely take 4:05 off the Blazer this could be again 4:07 something in the evening event you could 4:09 take off your Blazer this would be a 4:11 great little wedding cocktail anything 4:13 you need this is a great little jumpsuit 4:15 for it but I also think it would be a 4:18 great piece to do for work so I just 4:20 layer it on with our ever eat Brandy 4:22 Blazer I've shown this one to you before 4:24 I absolutely love it I think it's a 4:26 staple for spring and summer if you 4:28 don't have a great go-to Blazer this 4:30 little Brandy Blazer is going to do so 4:33 much work for you and then look at this 4:34 View beautiful print I mean they did 4:36 such a good job it's this cream a little 4:39 pop of yellow kind of gold to it which 4:42 really sets you up for these great shoes 4:44 these are by shoots they have a cork 4:46 heel to them gold little strap again 4:49 great base of a heel I'm never going to 4:51 show you a heel I don't if you can wear 4:52 it all day because I don't believe in it 4:54 okay I want to show you this little shoe 4:56 and I didn't think I was capable of 4:58 getting it off my foot but we have an 5:00 extra so again this is that shuts sandal 5:03 cork on the bottom really solid here 5:05 heel for Comfort but look at that pretty 5:07 gold band around the top and it's just a 5:10 slip-on there's no little latch nothing 5:12 you have to worry about super super easy 5:14 but beautiful and then I just took it 5:15 down to one little simple goriana 5:18 necklace added my Jenny bird hoops and 5:20 just nice polished accessories where 5:23 you're going out or work event book okay 5:26 more wide legs for work I've done a 5:28 little bit of a dare super wide leg Jean 5:30 with a very power cuff doing a very very 5:34 full floral bottom in a jumpsuit I get 5:37 it I'm like daring you a little bit 5:38 today but to this outfit is easy peasy 5:41 okay everyone can do this if you're 5:45 Basics to add to your wardrobe these 5:46 will be Staples and workhorses for you 5:48 so let's start with this great wide leg 5:51 pant this is by Monroe it's their Chino 5:53 it is super super soft and it comes in 5:56 guess what small medium large extra 5:58 large it's phenomenal I'm in a large 6:00 which is true to size for me so I think 6:02 take your your true to size and what you 6:04 normally wear super fun has like one 6:06 little back pocket not on the other side 6:08 I don't know kind of quirky and fun just 6:10 a fun little detail super wide at the 6:12 bottom I'm 5'7 again for reference that 6:14 comes right at my ankle great length for 6:17 work I just put back on that little 6:19 Splendid heel so great little pop at the 6:22 bottom and then this little blouse this 6:24 is by citizens I'm such a sucker for a 6:27 Citizens top and the reason being it is 6:30 a bit of an investment piece but they 6:31 work so hard for you they're so 6:33 beautiful the detail in the fit is 6:35 phenomenal this one is their little 6:36 Penny blouse this spring and summer 6:39 you're going to see a lot of camp shirts 6:41 which just means a little bit of an 6:42 oversized blouse it's got a little bit 6:44 of that kick sleeve which is perfect for 6:47 work right because sometimes you don't 6:48 want to be sleeveless and then in the 6:50 dead of Summer it is so stinking hot you 6:52 don't want to be in a Blazer so you've 6:54 got just that little kick sleeve that's 6:55 going to get you through make you feel 6:57 put together look at all the pleating on 6:58 the back side so it's kind of in an oval 7:00 on the back great pleading wonderful 7:03 covered buttons I mean you are 7:05 definitely definitely investing in this 7:08 piece 7:09 um super fun then back to Jenny bird I 7:12 kept on my little hoop but I added in 7:14 some fun bracelets so this little paper 7:16 clip bracelet if you can see it's a 7:18 combination of gold and silver would be 7:21 great to mix in with your stacks and 7:23 then these are little Jenny bird 7:24 bracelet or excuse me Bangles those are 7:26 in Gold what a great little classy stack 7:29 for work there you have it I hope that 7:33 you are able to take a little bit of a 7:35 dare work a little bit of this wide leg 7:36 Trend into your work wear and enjoy work 7:39 we go there every single day we should 7:42 look great we should feel good about 7:43 ourselves and I think adding a little 7:46 bit of wide leg denim is going to make 7:48 you do that
