For our lunch break today, we fell in fashion lust with this magenta Diane Von Furstenberg crepe jacket. Yes, it’s pink, actually magenta; it’s fabulous, and we also happen to think that it is very much work-appropriate.
While many may think that corporate environments are not exactly the setting for vibrant fashion colors, I beg to differ. I love color, and as you may be able to tell, I love love fashion. While I would certainly not recommend coming in to work dressed in all the colors of the rainbow, I don’t see any issue with donning a colorful piece here and there. I would actually even encourage it…
Well, this Illene crepe jacket from the Queen of wrap dresses herself, Diane Von Furstenberg, would certainly do the trick. Available at Outnet.com, its original price of $445 has been deeply discounted down (55%) to $200.25. With a slim fit and welt pockets, this jacket will make you stand out at the office during the week, as well as on week-ends. I would pair it with a structured sheath dress or elegant dress pants for an original yet polished look. And merchandising it with understated jewelry for the office would not hurt either…

Hi!!!
I looooove this jacket!!!! the color, the cut!!! everything!!!
in my opinion, i love wearing colors maybe because i have the idea that shows to your colleagues a part of your personality: yes, You are alive!!! AND that brings also joy, hapiness, life in our sad and hard corporate environment!!!
Than you for your comment! I agree that wearing colors at work certainly does not take away from being professional.
