It's time to get your work wear ready for the 2012. Using these easy to follow rules will enhance your image at work to a more professional and respectable level. Let me warn you that your co-workers, may start to envy your cool tricks.
Style Tip #1: Not your classic work pant
If you have been wearing the classic work pant for 2+ years, it may be time to change it up. I suggest the cafe capri, which hits right above the ankle. It allows you to show off your fabulous shoes with a french flair.
Style Tip #2: Exchange your cardigans
As comfortable as they feel, a button down crew neck cardigan or cardigan set can get boring. Purchase a jacket that nips in the waist and sits comfortably in the shoulders. A jacket will last longer (no pilling in a few wears) and will take your casual wear to the next level.
Style Tip #3: Be Jeweled
Don't go overboard, but don't go bare. Jewelry can add class to a more casual top and can update last year's favorite blouses.
Style Tip #4: Put down the black pump
Nine West $89
I know you all probably have 3+ black shoes, but why? Because it is safe and a go-to piece you don't have to think about. This time, shop for color, or at least a black pump in a new shape such as a wedge, peep-toe, or mary jane.

Style Tip #5: Know where to add color
If your goal is to add color, it is important to know where. If you want to take the eye away from your hips, a bright skirt will not work well. Instead try a subdued pattern or solid in the skirt and a bright colored top. You want to add color to the areas you would like to accentuate: wrist, facial features, neckline, and anywhere else!
