14 Pretty Nice Things We've Worn to the Office This Month
The team at Who What Wear UK have a habit of shopping our own stories, so we all tend to invest in the trends we write about every day. There are some real themes to our outfits this month: satin slip skirts, animal print and brown-and-tan (to name a few). There are also a number of hero products several of us have bought. At last count, our office owned, in total, 11 of Topshop's satin skirts, and two of us own Alighieri's pearl necklace.

Style Notes: Hannah's fur-collared coat is one seriously good vintage find. She keeps the rest of her outfit low-key with wide-leg jeans and a black roll-neck.

Style Notes: Not sure how to do statement dressing when it's cold? Hannah gets it down to a tee with her waist-cinching Rejina Pyo maxi, heeled boots and a buckle-detail necklace.
Patent Coat + Midi Skirt

Joy Montgomery
Style Notes: A midi skirt, knee-high boots and roll-neck is an easy outfit formula to replicate for any workplace. Joy adds a new season twist with a high-shine patent trench.
Midi Dress + Cardigan

Style Notes: Midi dresses needn't be high-maintenance. Emma keeps it casual yet polished with brown Chelsea boots and a cable-knit cardigan.
Printed Dresses + Black Boots

Hannah Almassi
Style Notes: We predict this Topshop tie-dye maxi will take over from last year's viral polka-dot dress. Super flattering and on-trend, Hannah styles hers with heeled boots and a hint of gold jewellery.
Zebra Dress + Cream Knit

Style Notes: Joy Montgomery wore her ASOS zebra-print dress over a cream knit and a pair of knee-high leather boots to make it more winter-proof. And, yes, her amazing dress is still in stock.
Checked Jacket + Snake Boots

Emma Spedding
Style Notes: Emma Spedding isn't usually a fan of print clashing, but she likes pairing her checked ASOS blazer with a pair of snake-print ankle boots by Aldo.
Camel Coat + Chunky Boots

Joy Montgomery
Style Notes: Joy swears by her tiger-print roll neck for staying warm in style. She layers hers under a white shirt then finishes the look off with wide leg jeans, lace-up boots and a smart camel coat.
Chunky Cardigan + Dr. Martens
