She works hard for her money. So do you, so do I.
Being a CEO and running my own company has been one of the most amazing things I’ve ever done. And one of the hardest. I am in love with the fact that I get to pursue and share my passions, be myself, set my own hours and boundaries, and get paid for it. There are times when it might be easier to work for someone else (Ask anyone who know who works for themselves about how they have to chase their checks); however, being the boss is something that I just love!
The other good news? The type of CEO I am doesn’t mean that I have to wear a suit to work. There are times when “work” is writing on the couch in sweats. Maybe there’s wine, but that’s not the point. Point: I don’t have a strict workwear dress code.
The bad news?
I love suits. And pencils skirts. And vintage suitcases. And heels that scream “CEO”. And there are times when I wish that I had a reason to dress up for work. I work hard for my money, so I should get to dress like it, right?
The best news? I do. I still rock suits, and I love pairing anything and everything with pencil skirts.
Here? I love a great graphic tee. I love art. This shirt, by Monogram Studios (my new favorite graphic tee company), combines not only both but is elevated to CEO status with this Balmain pencil skirt. (I got the skirt designer resale). It’s the perfect combo (with the heels!) for a day at work, or an evening out. Chilly? Grab a jacket. Have things to carry? I recommend a vintage briefcase (this one is Gucci and I got it on Etsy).
Could I dress like this all day every day? Probably not. Maybe that’s why I’m so attracted to suits? But, as the CEO who works hard for her money, I get to make the dress code rules. I’m thrilled that I get to wear things like this, and then change into sweats!
What do you wear to work? I’d love to talk all things workwear with you!
