An Hermès scarf with a harp motif dresses up a simple Hugo Boss dress; the short cropped pink sweater covers up bare arms in the cool office; and the sheer Wolford tights (more beautiful than naked) and the suede Manolo Blahnik pumps set the dressy tone. It is just as easy to dress this way as in Lululemon attire but dressing up like this sets the tone for a professional attitude — needed no matter what the task!

I also bring to the office a pink pashmina (Hermès) for warmth. I, like many other people, have to do jobs I don’t “feel” like doing but I can at least enjoy the texture and design of good clothes while working.
