It’s been a few years since people have commuted into work, and now many of us are finally making the return to a physical office. After working from home for over two years there is a major sartorial challenge ahead of us: how to dress comfortably yet stylish and chic after wearing sweats for so long. At Pavilion, we always have the best ‘elevated essentials’ that will make returning to the office an exciting and stylish occasion to look forward to.

Getting ready to ditch your covid worn sweatpants and hoodies may sound painful and overwhelming, make the transition easier by opting for some soft denim flares that you can comfortably wear all day. We love the Frida Flare in Aspiration by AMO, these super high rise jeans come almost to the ribs so you have room to sit and enjoy your lunch. Fitted where it’s flattering, and loose and comfortable everywhere else these super soft jeans are the perfect pair to head back to the office in. Complete your look with neutral staples like a neutral blazer and simple white tee. Add a simple gold clip chain to both finish and elevate an unfussy ensemble that is both stylish, comfortable, and office appropriate.

A neutral color palette is an easy way to maintain an understated but fashionable wardrobe for work. The latest slouchy sweater vest, we like the Fiona by Anine Bing, is forgiving, flattering and comes in an easy to style color for a simple office outfit. Step into straight denim like the Loews from Moussy and pair a coordinating sneaker like the Golden Goose Hi Star back to the sweater vest. A gold necklace always completes any look. Keeping yourself comforted in soft cashmere sweaters and subtle tones will be crucial in your transition from your house to your office.

If your return to the office coincides perfectly with the arrival of spring, infuse your office look with color and print. The Cara Cara Win Top is the ideal piece to bring a bit of sunshine and happiness with its lightweight cotton poplin vibrant print. A light white jean freshens up the bold print while keeping it simple, and a subdued Stardan sneaker ties it all together. Intentional additions of color and print elevate the basics and get you excited to leave the house in style.
