Today’s post is a little different! I’m sharing how to take your workwear through the weekend! Gibson {one of my favorite brands} just launched a gorgeous floral collection that you can style effortlessly with your pencil skirts and pumps. In order to get the most use for your money, I wanted to share how you can use the blouses you live in all week for brunch on the weekend.
For sizing reference, Gibson has a great array of sizes and I’m in the regular XS! You can get FREE SHIPPING with code KATEYCHRONICLES at Gibson!
Brunch
Blouse | Shorts from This Post | Necklace {coming soon!}
Let’s talk my favorite weekend activity: brunch. This top is probably my favorite from the new collection and I could see you all pairing it with black cropped pants and a fabulous suede pump by Marc Fisher come Monday morning. For your weekend look, I tucked this top into cut-off denim and added a choker-style necklace {coming soon!}. Add in a white handbag {mine is sold out, this is similar}, and statement slides. I’d also take this top and tuck it into a bright pink skirt if I had a baby shower or something a little dressier for the weekend. This print can be treated like leopard which is a neutral in my book. 😉
Couples Shower

I think couples showers are getting more and more common- especially with the arrivals of some of my friends’ second babies. Dads want in on the fun, too! Traditionally, those are a little less dressy but I still want something a step above my usual denim look. This collection with Gibson has the most beautiful wrap blouses that are incredibly flattering to the waist. I paired my black blouse with white flare jeans and wedges for a dressier look! Top it off with statement earrings and a classic handbag.
Navy Option

If you are a navy girl, this blouse also comes in a navy option here.
Baseball Game
Red Blouse {xs} | Shorts From This Post | Bag | Belt | Wedges
I categorized this look as perfect for a baseball game, but let’s just call this the outdoor event option. From a game to an arts festival, this look is bright and still keeps you cooled down in the summer heat. I love this punchy red blouse for work in the summer and then it works just as well with denim for the 4th of July! I tucked it into my jeans and added a belt with wedges, but you could do simple sandals or white sneakers if that is more your style.
Church

Lastly, this black floral blouse paired with white accessories makes for a great church option. A wide-legged crop jean will make any denim look automatically more dressy, but the loafer slides make it easy to chase your toddlers around. These blazers are on sale and come in a ton of colors, too- but white is my preference for the summer.

Thank you for sharing these looks! Sometimes I feel like all I buy is work clothes so it’s nice to have inspiration on how to wear them with more than just black slacks.
Of course! 🙂 Thank you so much for reading!! xx, Katey
I personally love styling blouses casually! They add such a girly factor. They’re so trendy in Korea right now! 🙂
