Hey beauties! It’s been a little while since I’ve shared an OOTD and I figured this particular one was long overdue! For this post, I’ve decided to do my take on a Casual Dress Day look, showing one of the exact looks that I wore at my corporate job! Also, more info on the place I took all these photos is coming soon. That’s another project I have for this upcoming week!
As some of you may know, I am not one to dress up very often. It’s not that I don’t like to do it; I just prefer to be comfortable over looking good all the time. However, I’m about to contradict what I just said by saying that I feel there’s a way to do both. Half of you are probably like…”What?! How the heck do you ‘be comfortable’ in heels?” Of course there’s an easy way to do that as well…find comfy heels!
When I was in the corporate world, Friday was our designated Casual Dress Day, in which we could wear jeans. Of course there were rules with this, as there usually are in this type of environment. There were to be no holes or frayed edges and they also had to be of a darker denim. Now if you know me, you know I was not a fan of this silly rule, but I learned to realize that it just came with the territory. While I’ll admit I wore sneakers with my jeans mostly, there were times that I wore heels with them, and they were comfy of course!
Though most may feel that heels are a bit dressy (and I happen to agree), when you pair them with a nice pair of jeans, it creates a nice balance that is perfect for the workplace and anything you might have planned afterwards!
Though most of my looks are tomboy, vintage chic, I tend to slide more feminine looks in from time to time. I can’t wait to hear what you beauties think of this look! 😘

Wow, this is exactly what i was looking for. thanks for sharing
Well, there are some restrictions to dressing where I work but I try to make the most of it. I love your suggestions and also reading about how you go about it.
I’d much rather feel comfortable too so rarely dress up. I like how you made denim look so chic.
I love your style, it’s so simple yet classy. My closet could really use a makeover lol
I love your sense of style. Your outfit is perfect for Friday casual day!
Wow, I love your whole aesthetic! Your photos look great, and your tips are great too! I’m currently on the lookout for a good pair of comfy heels. My job is pretty relaxed, so I often wear converse to the office, but it would be nice to dress up!
I love your style! There are days that I need to wear casual-cum-work wear, and also good outfit to attend spontaneous event. Slim jeans is a savior!
You have such a cute style!!
