Spring Trends at Work

Our four favorite runway trends can be toned down so they're just right for the office. 

Animal prints

These call-of-the-wild prints can be really sophisticated office attire when not overdone. Stick to one animal-print piece paired with neutral basics. Dalmatian print is such a fun alternative to leopard.

Color-Blocking

Pair mod silhouettes in black and camel, to offset any ultra-bright hues. This jacket looks like a true vintage find.

Lace

Lace can be added in subtly, with trims and modest feminine shapes. Ruffles are a pretty counterpart to the tiny amount of lace.

The small lace trim goes a long way on this crisp blouse.

Try lace in a more formal, non-provocative silhouette—like this pencil skirt.

This shift style is absolutely work-appropriate.

A vintagey, goes-with-anything blouse.

Prints

Prints can work surprisingly well for the office when toned down by office-ready basics.Statement-making, but far from over-the-top.

A print that screams "Spring!"
