While browsing around Nordstrom’s we found a couple of examples of nice casual work outfits in plus sizes that are very accessorized well. For plus size outfits we recommend long necklaces as accessories.
TOP: This work outfit consists of a staple black skirt, with a casual cardigan over a classic white blouse. This ensemble would have worked well by itself, but accessorized with the lime green multi string necklace it gets a completely different feel to it. Don’t under estimate how just one accessory can change the look of a professional attire outfit.
BOTTOM: The blue cardigan set is rather plain by itself, even though good quality. In this image it is the necklace and the purse that makes this work outfit what it is. Accessorize a plain work outfit with two accessories that don’t necessarily match, but that add spunk and class. When using un-matching accessories limit them to 2 – if you use 3 or more un-matching accessories, it will look messy.
Maybe avoid something light in color… I like the dark blue but I’m not sure about the baby blue top

I read this blog from time to time and I never see anything about proper work clothing, I mean yes professional women do wear these clothes for work but what about uniform type work clothes where there is just no getting away from company colours or designs, I would be interested to read one of your articles about this kind of workwear and how it would be possible to add a touch of class to such clothing.
Tis is the kind of clothes I mean Women’s Workwear Looking forward to your next post.
