So, Emma had the idea to switch up our Work Wears feature for the new year and share three outfits at a time. Way more fun, right? Emma's full of good ideas.
Casual outfits are my everything. I do wear heels to work sometimes, but a lot of days I keep it way casual. There's a fine line when you're a business owner because I can wear yoga pants to work if I want to (and I have, a lot), but I also feel totally normal when I dress up. And since we do so many different things with our days, I kinda just let my to-do list dress me. So when I'm shooting a video, I dress up more, and when I'm working on my computer, I dress down. Duh. OK. Moving on…
Outfit: Glasses/Bonlook (I think this style is out of stock at the moment, but they'll be back), Earrings/Vintage (from Jeremy's grandmother), Top/Anthropologie, Jeans/Jessica Simpson, Shoes/Converse.
Outfit: Scarf/Vintage, Top/ Half of Half, Cardigan c/o ModCloth (old), Jeans/Jessica Simpson (againโI have three pairs of these. I wear them so much in the winter.), Boots/Urban Outfitters, Bracelets/Vintage & Madewell, Bag/Gift Shop Brooklyn.
Outfit: Dress/Jessica Simpson, Necklace/LaMalconttenta on Etsy, Glasses/Bonlook (I call these our "Clark Kent glasses"), Shoes/Swedish Hasbeens (c/o ModCloth forever ago).
Thanks so much for reading! Love you guys. Happy weekend! xx. Elsie

Love these posts! Great that you switched it up and decided to include 3 outfits: triple the inspiration for us readers! Love that you admit to not having certain items of clothing (I think we can all relate!)….
LOVE all these outfits! especially the shirt, glasses, dress and shoes!!! Love your blog x
I’m loving your style so much!
All the outfits are gorgeous! My personal favourite though is the first one, it’s so playful – definitely something that I would wear. Plus I love the combo of the green shirt and yellow shoes. As someone who lives in the black jeans as well, I know how necessary it is to try and fit some colour into your winter outfits!
Keep you the good work ladies. I am really loving where you are taking the blog this year =)
Oh, that’s so sweet, grandma and you ๐ I’m very fond of my grandma, too. We also have those rituals, and I love it!
On first photo I thought for the moment you cut your hair, and I must say I think it would be awesome on you ๐
The green top is fabulous – colour, print, shape… everything, and also the Urban Outfitters boots! I especially love the cushion on the sofa – not the focal point of the article, but something my eye keeps being drawn to.
I am a massive black jeans wearer; itโs so easy to get stuck with them. Black = Safe. Love your little black dress/tights outfit, spicing things yet classic and confortable.
I love your cute green shirt with pug print x> onething i adore about you elsie is this you dress up and have fun. Do you ever get days where you feel lazy dressing up?^ any personal tips i would love. Thanks xo, saoirse
Beautiful! Love the dress the most x
the yellow sneakers & glasses are awesome!

I love this feature – and I like the idea of showing a couple of different outfits in one post. As someone who works from home a lot, I know that it can be hard to find the right thing to wear. I often find getting a bit dressed up, doing my hair and makeup to be a motivating factor though.
Good luck with everything you’ve got going on Elsie – you can do it! Happy weekend!

I loveeee the third outfit. I’d never think of pairing Hasbeens with tights but it works so well

I’m the opposite! I wear dresses and tights all winter long! I seriously can not remember the last time I wore jeans! ๐
OO, you both look perfect and so nice.

Cutest outfits! It’s hard to pick my fav, but I think I’d have to go with #2. It’s an outfit I’d most likely wear myself. I love ALL of the shoes! You’re the cutest and I admire your fashion sense so much!

Oh, how I love your style Elsie! You have been a huge inspiration for me over the last 2 years in finding my own style. That green top with the doggies is on.point. Love it!
I love, love, love your converses. I am a Chucks-kinda-gal!
I have a Salmon pair, and of course, black.
That is super sweet of your grandma. Cherish that memory. My grandma had a stroke and can’t get out anymore and I miss all our traditions ๐
Thank so so much!! I really appreciate that! :))
-Elsie
Eeek! I have been growing my hair out for 10 years from a pixie cut and I don’t think I could ever go back, but thank you so much!!! ๐
-Elsie
Thanks so much! I have gotten a lot of wear out of those boots, but they’re gone from the UO site.
The couch is from Joybird and I absolutely love it!!
-Elsie
Sorry to hear that Kristin. Thanks for reminding me to be extra thankful.
xx-Elsie
I love seeing more outfit inspiration in one post. I think a lot of us dress by our to do list. It’s so practical!
Love these outfits!

JANUARY FAVOURITES + giveaway
I can’t wait to get my hands on those clear and gold glasses! I’ve been on the waiting list for months and check the website everyday to see if they are back in stock. Super cute!
Great Post and very nice Pics <3 I'm loving your Outfit
The outfits are lovely! ๐

Very cute.
Love the first pic, a short haircut would really suit you!
I love love love these outfits! Definitely going to keep these in mind next time I don’t know what to wear!
I love that first outfit so much! The print is so cute. – Tasha
I love that tradition with your grandmother! My mother in law takes me shopping every year, too, and it’s so much fun to have a special memory attached to whatever we end up choosing. How else could you equate yellow sneakers with your grandmother?? Love it ๐
Elsie you look so nice in green!!
I’m first in line when Jack & Norma is back in stock. The champagne colour… Ugh. So nice. xoxoxo
Love the sparkly glasses and the light grey boots!

I love this! Love all pic of you.
I wish you’d do a “how not to look like a goober when you pose for style posts” post. You look cute even as a flamingo/tightrope walker.

LOVE these posts! So much fun! You’re so pretty!!! ๐
I love your more ‘casual’ outfits! These are great for me! I am trying to suss out my style/what to wear to work at my new teaching job! I love you and Emma’s style in the sister style shoots but I could wear clothes like that to work (heals at school would be rather silly!) … so I’m loving these work wear posts! ๐
My outfits during these cold winter months are just fleece-lined leggings and long sweaters! During the winter months I naturally drift towards neutrals, but I love all the color in your first outfit so much ๐ -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey’s
very cute!!!

When your Party Party app comes to android?
Xoxo ??
I love your outfits so much, my favorite outfit would have to be the second one. But overall I love your style.
Love all the looks, but especially the first one! I can’t wait to fit back into my clothes again. It’ll be a long haul (still waiting ever so impatiently to give birth to our first child) but so fun to revisit my wardrobe again!
Your comment about the black jeans made me laugh, I’m guilty of wearing my favourite pieces too much as well! I’m making a more conscious effort to mix things up, it’s a never ending challenge.
I love all three outfits. They’re all great for different moods, 1st one fun, 2nd comfy but cute, 3rd dressy cool. Your style is great!

I have the same jeans issueโฆ ๐
My grandma and I go shopping sometimes, but I’m 13โฆ It’s so cool that it’s become a tradition for you! ๐
I love your yellow converse & the second outfit (that headband is adorable!!)
xoxox,

Too cute! I love the yellow converse, and what a great tradition from your grandmother. My grandmother is obsessed with being absolutely fair with every grandchild, so if she buys one grandchild something, she always makes sure to get every grandchild something of equal value. (Luckily she only has 5 grandkids). When we were little, her and my grandfather would give us birthday checks in odd amounts, like $31.16, because they wanted us to be able to buy a $30 item but have enough for tax as well. It was always funny and extremely thoughtful that way. ๐

All the outfits are adorable! I am still so in love with the gold glasses you designed for Bonlook! I hope they will be back soon. I’ve been waiting for them to come back in stock for a while now! Buying them as soon as they come back. (:
You look like Zoe Dechanel in photo #2! Love the glittery frame, so fun.
The second outfit is my favorite of the three! That’s more or less my daily uniform, though I might wear a statement necklace instead of the scarf in my hair (but wait till my hair grows!)
happy Sunday!
I absolutely love you’re glasses! Especially the Clark Kent ones. ๐

Love the outfits ๐

Your style is so incredibly funky and fun. I love it! And the creative photos are fantastic!
You look too cute. My fave is the black dress. I have been eying that Anthro top for a while though. Love the necklace! Enjoy the birthday tradition with your grandma! I think it’s sweet.
I loved the three outfits Elsie! Cant pick a favorite!
But this yellow All Star is totally cool!!!!
I wish I could wear whatever I want on my days too. But my job is not that casual. ๐

I absolutely adore your style!
I’m so mixed up with my own personal style, but yours is such an inspiration for me. It’s fits so well with being a teacher’s aide/future teacher. Fun, happy, cute. Must find more dresses and COLOR! and someday…some hasbeens! (maybe a graduation gift!)
Your outfits are adorable! Love!

I love your style Elsie!
I work long hours in an office, and often find it hard to find the time and energy to pick out cool, office appropriate outfits (it’s a very casual office, but flip flops and shorty shorts are NOT appropriate). When I do make an effort, it makes me feel much more confident in myself, and this translates to my work. Your post has totally inspired me this week! Thank you! Hannah x
Interesting and amazing! Great

love you style.
Where did you get that awesome light fixture in the hall above the stairs in the last photo? I love it! Please share!
It’s ok! I love black jeans too! I challenged myself over the weekend to wear mostly all skirts and dresses! It was really fun.
Adorable. Always. ๐
Absolutely adore the green shirt! So cute.
Hey!
In the first picture it looks like you got short hair – and I think that’d be fabulous! A bit like Audrey Tautou ๐
Give it a thought.
