It is not only religious women who are into modest fashion these days. We can also put our hands straight up and agree that modest fashion is insanely cool in 2018.
Ever felt that the outfits you take to work need an update? You’re not alone, it’s a problem all of us working ladies will have at one point or another unless you have a uniform. It’s easy to slip on style especially when you find yourself hurrying every morning to work, trying to get some errands done before heading to office. It doesn’t have to be the case, and you can start remedying that now by taking a few minutes out of your day to look at our recommendations, starting with these work-appropriate blouses. Your job might be built on routine, but your work wardrobe does not have to be. Here are tops made to impress and make you appear more-put-together at work without being basic.
Keep in mind that we are not advocating this or recommending these blouses from a religious standpoint.
Modest Blouses Under $500 on Farfetch
Great choices are aplenty over at Farfetch, and they do not have to go over $500 just so you could update your wardrobe. Take for instance the steal from Ganni’s closet, a floral ruffled blouse you can use for layering, or the eyelet-sleeve blouse from Self-Portrait that is glorious in red and can double as your part of your after work attire seamlessly while still achieving the same impact. Our picks from Solace London and Cult Gaia establish a stronger presence in the workplace with larger sleeves. Look classic even when stressed with Nanushka‘s satin blouse or leave a memorable impression among your workmates with Self-Portrait’s playful but still office-appropriate asymmetrical top. Each one is below the 500 mark, but will more than satisfy your fashion fix.
Modest Blouses from $500 to $1000 on Nordstrom
If you have more than enough to go beyond $500 to satiate your style cravings, then we’re serving you up with some chic goodness over at Nordstrom. We’re sure you heard how prairie silhouettes and retro vibes are becoming the “in” thing in the coming months; have a try at them with some of the blouses like Isabel Marant‘s Lyneth top, Etro‘s paisley-printed take, and COMME DES GARÇONS‘ blouse that gives your arms a chance to breathe. The luxurious folds of Jonathan Simkhai‘s Gathered sleeve satin blouse should make an appearance at least once in the office, and Co‘s crepe back even more so. Alice + Olivia‘s version takes the form of the tuxedo, but still is feminine with the embroidery and beads.
Modest Blouses $1000 and above on Net-a-Porter
Don’t mind splurging for the sake of fashion? Net-a-Porter is the answer. On it you can grab Miu Miu’s cute and chic blouse that is filled with stars against a pink background, or Saint Laurent’s banging top you can wear when your Friday night will bring you elsewhere to mingle. Wearing Chloé’s crisp white blouse with big sleeves to boot is a power move you can do in the office, but you wouldn’t be taken any less seriously if Gucci’s pussy-bow blouse is more your thing. Etro’s blouse has a bohemian vibe, which is just the brand’s style, but its silk-jacquard blouse did not look out of place in the office. Jason Wu’s take is a little unconventional but refined; it would be among the most memorable outfits you’d be able to wear at work.
