When I worked in corporate America, one of my biggest challenges was keeping my work wear from getting boring. Even though I had outfit formulas that made getting dressed easier, I still struggled with ways to keep my outfits feeling fresh and on trend.
I eventually discovered the key is to adapt the season’s latest trends in subtle ways that give your basics new life while still feeling professional.
Today I’m sharing three outfits from the Fall 2017 Work Wear Capsule to show you how to incorporate three of my favorite fall work wear trends into your office attire.
Psst…if you like these outfits, then check out the Fall 2017 Work Wear Capsule! You’ll get shopping links to all of the pieces below plus 18 days of mix and match outfit ideas to make getting dressed for work the easiest thing you’ll do all day.

Hey pretties! One of my all-time favorite things to do is translate trends into everyday wearable style. I always look forward to the seasons changing so I can get out into stores and go online to see what the latest trends are and how to incorporate them into daily outfits.
Fall 2017 has been especially fun because there are so many new trends that are totally wearable! Last week I did a Facebook Live about five of my favorites. In case you missed it, you can check it out below. I talk about my five favorite trends and show you examples of each one. I’ve also linked up the items mentioned in this video in the blog post below.

Happy September pretties! It’s my birthday month, the big day is tomorrow. Craig and I took a mini-vacation to celebrate our belated anniversary and my early birthday last week. He was on business in California so I tagged along. We spent a few days touring San Francisco, Napa Valley and Sonoma. It was a whirlwind trip but very relaxing with lots of great food and of course, wine! We haven’t taken a kid-free trip in over four years so it was high time.
This month’s Pretty Fix features one of the outfits that I packed for our trip to California. Every piece in this outfit is also on the shopping list for the Fall 2017 GYPO Style Challenge which opened last Friday. If you haven’t joined me for a style challenge yet, now is the perfect time to rebuild your fall capsule wardrobe. This is our biggest challenge of the year! You can learn more and sign up here.
This outfit is SO me. It’s basically a dressed up tee and jeans, my daily uniform. I switched to my gold slip on sneakers for our day of touring San Francisco and then changed into my ankle boots for dinner.
To say I have a cardigan stashed in my bag year-round is not an exaggeration. This light beige cardigan is super versatile for fall. It’s a great lightweight layer. This linen cardigan is also a great choice.
This white tee is seriously one of the best I’ve ever owned. I love the fit, fabric and bit of drapey-ness. This one is another good option at a great price.

Also, in case you haven’t heard, Target is undergoing a major overhaul of their brands to include home goods and accessories as well as women’s and men’s apparel. They are introducing such brands as A New Day and JoyLab for women and Goodfellow & Co. for men. In order to make room for these new brands they will be phasing out Merona and Mossimo. So what does that mean for us? Sales and clearance!
With the Fall 2017 GYPO Style Challenge opening today, now is the time to get your hands on some great pieces at a fraction of the cost!
After visiting my local Target and looking online I noticed that most of the Merona and Mossimo labels were either discounted or on clearance. They are also intermittently offering an additional percentage off, sometimes through the Cartwheel app (which has now combined with their Target App so no need to have both anymore). When I looked online certain items were already showing as sold out both in-store and online, however, when I visited the store I was still able to find those “sold out” items. I suggest that if you find something you really like, try calling to see if the store really does or does not have it.
While I am excited to see what the new brands have to offer I’m sad to see Mossimo and Merona go. I have a bunch of their items in my closet and I especially love their tanks and tees for layering. From what I can see, they are keeping some of their basics and just rebranding them.
Items from the new brands have been slowing trickling into Target stores over the past few weeks, but they made their official launch online over the weekend. They anticipate that it will take roughly two years to make the total transition. I’ve been checking out what the new brand has to offer and below are a few pieces I’m really excited about. Not all pieces are showing as available but I’m sure they are still working out some of the inventory kinks. As with anything, change is hard but I’m hoping Target will not let us down in proving stylish, affordable clothing and a great array of basics. Until then, happy shopping!
This picture and styling does not do the dress justice! I’ve seen it in person and it’s a great thick material and would look perfect with boots and a scarf or an awesome statement necklace!
Again here is another situation where the picture does not do this coat justice! I saw it in person at Target and it’s a great fall coat because you can wear the sleeved rolled up or leave them down. Olive green is definitely on trend and the embroidered flowers make it pop!
If there’s one sure bet for fall fashion, it’s got to be olive! This color is everywhere. Even though it’s been around for a few seasons now, this fall seems to be it’s best showing yet. If you don’t have a pair of olive jeans, today’s post will hopefully convince you why now’s the time to buy.
Olive jeans are incredibly versatile (you can wear them like you would any neutral) and make outfits so much more interesting than ordinary denim.
Here are five of my favorite olive jeans outfits.
Olive Jeans Outfit #1: Stripes + Olive
This is quite possibly one of my favorite ways to pair up my olive jeans. Just add a striped top and a tassel necklace for an instant outfit!
Burgundy is a fall staple that was made for olive jeans. For date night layer a burgundy tee under a moto jacket, add ankle booties and a statement necklace.
Pair up a cozy gray sweatshirt with olive jeans and slip-on sneakers for the perfect fall errand running outfit. Add a statement necklace for an unexpected bit of bling.
Do you struggle to put outfits together? Are you stuck in a yoga pants rut? Not sure if you can make the latest trends work for you? You’re in the right place!

I am so glad I was part of the Fall 2019 Style Challenge. It gave me confidence and so many great outfitt ideas. The ladies in the group were very supportive and I will defintetly be doing another challenge in the future.

I’ve been participating in the GYPO Style Challenges for three years now and I’ve loved it. I’ve always loved clothes, but I didn’t know how to put outfits together. My closet is now full of mix-and-match outfits, I have learned how to dress myself, and there is no more stress in figuring out to wear. The private FB group is full of wonderful ladies that build each other up. It’s so fun and is seriously the best group on FB.

Get Your Pretty On has changed my life, seriously. I have always chased what is trendy but found from season to season, that things go out of style and I was wasting money on items that I would only end up wearing a few times. GYPO has enabled me to simplify my closet, helps me make smarter purchasing decisions, and I feel so put together and confident using the outfit formulas that are provided. This program is a GAME CHANGER. I've been following GYPO for a few years now and my only regret is not jumping on board sooner.

Great community of ladies, helping each other look stylish, without breaking the bank, and using much of what you already own.

GYPO challenges have been one of the best things I have done! It had taught me so much more than just creating a closet of clothes that I love but also to have confidence in myself, how to pick and choose colors that work for me instead of against, and had given a wonderful community of Pretties who are so special.
