Sometimes change is controllable, sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it’s your fault that change happens, but you can’t control what happens after the change. Started a new job in a new location, and living not at my home – I thought it was easier to handle than not. I don’t want to dive into too much details yet, but right now change is scary because I feel like it’s controlling me more than I can control it. But, what I can control is my wardrobe, as I have been adjusting to something more business casual. There goes the days of wearing my Harry Potter T-shirts to work.
For me, the key of changing my wardrobe is definitely getting pieces that I can wear professionally, but also casually. Some of my current essential pieces that I have been rotating are:
Babaton Murphy Blouse
Aritzia has been winning me over with office work wear! This black V-neck looks great with any skirt or jeans, and you can throw any a cardigan or sweater to layer up (now that it’s raining in Vancouver!)

Uniqlo Gingham Cropped Jeggings
I’m not sure how to classify my pants; but I bought them from Uniqlo in Japan and gotten many compliments! It looks great with sneakers or flats, and any simple top will match this pair!

When I walked by and saw this burnt orange, square buckle belt, I was in love!! I was drawn into it’s unique colour and it’s nice contrast against blue jeans! Uniqlo says it’s brown on the website; but to me I see an orange that’s thrown into the fire for 10 seconds.
Steve Madden FEATHER Loafer Flat –
I was looking for a pair of business casual footwear that is comfy and neutral – and when I saw the Steve Madden Feather Loafer Flats I was like CAN I TRY ALL THE COLOURS ON?! The debate was on between the black leather and the nude suede, but the suede pair won me over. The only downside is that it wouldn’t survive in any puddle. However, it is also a great neutral/minimal shoe that can complement any casual to professional wear. Pencil skirt or jeans – this pair works for all!
Ted Baker Tote Bag
So my mom actually purchased this purse from Nordstrom but I’ve been borrowing it. It has an adjustable handle so I can hold it or carry it on my shoulders. It can carry substantial amount of stuff and the black/rose gold combo looks pretty everything.
SmartBuyGlasses reached out to share one of their sunglasses on my platform. These Tom Ford sunnies fit what I was looking for in terms of style with a band going between the top of the frames and the grey lenses.
