HFW: Day 1 - Work Wear

Finally it's here!!

The Hijabi Fashion Week 2011!!

So for Day 1 outfit post, 'Work Wear'

The Outfit

This is what i would wear for work. Basically, my company do not have a strict code when it comes to dressing up. It depends on what type of work that you are assigned to. As for myself, i work in an office, but also i had to perform some work task in a production line, where you have to work with operators and machines, and sometimes you need to involve with the process, too. However, it really doesn't matter if you wear a pants or a skirt because my work usually on a documentation wise.

The Dress Code

Whenever i need to do a paperwork or presentations, I'd prefer something classy yet fashionable in my own way. And that is why i chose dark-colored maxi skirt, matched with lace dark blue tops with a black long-sleeve underneath, with wide metal-buttoned belt to accessorize the outfit beside the bracelet and also a plain-colored cotton scarf.

The 'Brief' Case & The Shoes

For my personal belongings, i normally bring everything from my make-up case, to other necessary stuffs that all girls should have in their bag, for example like my cards holder, my wallet and a coin purse, facial-cottons, small water bottle, mobile charger, small paper bags, hair clips, scarf pins, or even an umbrella. All these stuff could be well fitted in my large dark-blue retro Topshop-alike bag. And, as you need to be professional ala Legally Blonde style, you'd pretty much prefer a nice Charles & Keith heels. I'm not into pumps, i am more the 'peep-toe' type. You can also wear a flats but that would be perfect with slack pants. As for skirts, high-heels are the best, don't you think?
