Get the Look: working women

New season, new office wardrobe. The pre-collections are the best time to stock up on work essentials as they offer practical styles that are still on trend for the new season. Designers, including 3.1 Phillip Lim (pictured), have included plenty of lightweight coats in must-have colours including white, while trousers make a comeback. There are various silhouettes to choose from, ranging from loose, wide legs to cropped and sheer styles in classic colours such as grey and camel.

Geek Chic has never been cooler, so have some fun with Kate Spade's Goreski glasses earrings (HK$500).

Choose a bag that is structured yet practical such as Saint Laurent Paris' classic duffle bag (HK$25,450). Part of the first collection designed by Hedi Slimane, it features functional details such as a removable shoulder strap and key ring pouch.

Pointy toe pumps are a huge trend and look polished and elegant. Jimmy Choo's Maya style (HK$6,150) has a playful bow detail at the front.

Make a statement with a blouse in a bold colour such as Vaughan's Keeper of the Flame style (US$125 available at wearvaughan.com Monogramming is also available for that personal touch.
