League of Ladies Lookbook
Our April 17 League of Ladies networking extravaganza is *que marching band and dancing elephants*… sold out! Thank you so much for making us even more pumped for this inaugural (yep, we said “inaugural” — because we’re that good) event.
Let’s get down to business before we party. There’s only one important question. It’s a question we will face at some point, so might as well address it now …
What should you wear to it?
Honestly, we don’t care as long as you’re accessorizing with a smile. But if you need a style tip, The Girlmade team will rock these blazers and T-shirts (except Jonas, because we couldn’t find the pink one he wanted in a 39 regular):
Cute, right?
Blazers are cardigans’ polished older sister. She has a firmer handshake and drinks pinot noir. You can wear a blazer with a T-shirt for casual weekends or pair it with a button-down oxford or lightweight blouse for work. Either way, you’re going to look like you put some effort into your appearance (even if the reality is you slept in and ate a sad, cold, stale bagel during your commute).
Look 1: I Woke Up Like This
Blazer, shirt, shoes, earrings
This outfit may seem basic, but think of it as a clean slate that can be jazzed up with accessories, like these sweet Nevada earrings from Etsy, bright shoes or a bold printed scarf. Of course, the oxfords can be swapped out for heels, depending on your comfort level.
Look 2: Change of A-dress
Blazer, dress, shoes, bag
This dress is a literal translation of the 2014 Pantone Color of the Year, Radiant Orchid. The blazer makes for a great cover-up for the spring, because the wind in Nevada is no joke. Let’s not forget the importance of a well-made structured work bag — think of all the business cards you’re going to get during League of Ladies, you networker you.
We’re (half) kidding about the only important thing being what you wear, although it does help. What really counts is what you have to say and how you say it. See you on April 17.
