I was compensated for this post on fashionable workwear. Thoughts are my own.
Just recently, my husband and I decided that it’s time for me to go back to working full-time. So I sent my resume over to a staffing agency so they can help me find a job where I could be a good fit. I was assigned a 1-week temporary frontdesk admin job at a company while the employee was on vacation.
And during that week, I must say it was challenging to find a nice outfit. Being at the frontdesk, I can’t look sloppy because I’ll be the first one that clients and customers see as they enter the building.
It’s a good thing there are lots of fashion sites we can check for outfits that make us look effortlessly chic at work. One such website is PURFERVOR.
PURFERVOR’s style is sophisticated with a bit of whimsy. They don’t think style should be so excruciatingly serious so they tend to select pieces from designers who love classic lines with a contemporary flair.
For instance, their favorite pant is the well structured trouser by FRNCH (see 5th outfit below). But they like it in that beautiful shade of salmon because it’s fresh and amps up the style. They tend to like contrasts. And I must say I do too.
I went through PURFERVOR’s site and picked out items that I see myself wearing. And so without further ado, here are five different outfits from PURFERVOR that will make you look really chic at work!
1. Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer + Long Sleeve Gold Bar Blouse + Little Black Pant
2. Snake Print Jumper + Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer
3. Navy Block Dress and 4. Lace and Embroidered Dress
5. Layered Suspender Top + Skinny Leg Woven Trousers
I tossed in some shoe ideas in those outfits above but I dare say be a little adventurous in mixing and matching your work wear. Because one of the key things in looking chic is in expressing our unique style.

Clothes are lovely but get those foot torturers away from me.
Purfervor sounds like a great website I like jumpsuits and I really like the jumpsuit & blazer combo. Thank you for sharing this review. I will definitely be visiting the Purfervor website.

Hi Michelle! Yes, it really is a huge step for me! My mother-in-law is retiring in June so she’ll be taking care of my son while my husband and I are at work. It’s actually one of the things that helped us in deciding whether or not it’s time for me to work full-time again. Daycare wasn’t an option for us because of the costs. Thanks for wishing me well! I sure hope I land a good job that fits me. — Alice 🙂

I love the Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer + Long Sleeve Gold Bar Blouse + Little Black Pant. It looks fantastic. The others look nice as well.
I love those shoes! All those outfits belong in my closet! Right now!
Thanks for turning me on to this site! I love it!
My favourite of the outfits was the Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer + Long Sleeve Gold Bar Blouse + Little Black Pant!!! Simple and elegant! Great work attire!
I love these dresses! Perfect office wear! Thank you for sharing!
I am in love with the outfits; specially the blue dresses <3
Your choices are all appropriate. At first, I wondered if the dress up top was one of yours. It’s nice, just not for a front desk job.
All the clothes above are from the PURFERVOR site but I sure wish I have them all! LOL. I just picked the ones that I think might be okay for the office. But yeah as a frontdesk, I probably won’t wear lots of dresses because I’ll be running and walking around a lot. — Alice 😀

I’d like the white blazer with the blue dress.
Snake Print Jumper + Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer is my favorite set. Snake print is on the rise and I really want to try it.
those are some really cute choices
I don’t work outside the home, but it’s still a good idea to have a couple of nice outfits to wear.
Great post and great outfits.
I had no idea sites existed that focused on fashionable work wear. I’ve recently also been considering going back to work but by closet is so Mommy wear at this point. I defiantly will check PURFEVOR out. I love that the clothes aren’t boring pants suits but have a flare.
I didn’t know these websites existed, thank you for the info. I love these outfits
All of these outfits are beautiful! They’re so chic and classy. Love the shoes too!
These are a great selection of outfits. Thank you so much for sharing this
I got a massage today and somehow we got to talking about shoes. She was saying how bad high heels are for your feet, knees, back & hips.
I Love the Navy block dress! But They would all be really Nice to wear to the office! Nice picks- I would love to wear any of these outfits! Thanks!
Gorgeous clothes, and perfectly acceptable prices! (thanks)

these are comfortable fabrics, i can tell.. hmm.. so chic and crisp, so pleasing to my eyes! 🙂
I really like the outfits. I especially like the Navy block dress.
You really don’t need a whole lot to get started. A few basic pieces and work around them as you build up your wardrobe.
Oh, the clothing is just gorgeous! I espeuially love the white Long Sleeve Ponte Blazer – perfect for summer! But I doubt I could take more than 3 steps in those spike heels without falling flat on my face!
Congrats on returning to work!! I bet you were a little worried at first!! But in these outfits I bet you looked fantastic!! What a great variety and style!!
these clothes are nice.
These outfits are so nice!
The dresses are beautiful. They all seem to have a little unique flair to them.
I like the skinny leg woven trousers! They seem to have some great looks.
It’s nice to have a few basic pieces to work around. Especially if you have been away from the work place a while. Building a new wardrobe can be expensive.
I love their cloths i usually dont buy alot for myself but i do like these cloths
All of these outfits are so polished and put together. My favorite is the navy block dress.
I’m in love with outfit number 5 it is very comfy.
You picked some great options! I’m always in need of work fashion ideas! You need to look professional but also want comfort!
I am loving the Long Sleeve Gold Bar Blouse, and it looks like something that can be mixed and matched.
Love the lace and embroidery dress with the white heels!!
What lovely clothes and thank you for sharing your review with us.
Wow the lace dress is amazing! Thank you for sharing these reviews on these clothes.

Nice looking outfits for work and basic clothes to start a nice big wardrobe with. Thanks for the pictures
These are very nice outfits. I have never heard of Purfervor before your review.
I love the jumpsuit. So cute!
The clothes do look professional. I’ve never been one to wear a one piece jumpsuit. Especially at work. Too much trouble when a bathroom break is needed.
these outfits are really really nice! my favorite would have to be the Lace and Embroidered Dress. 🙂
Some lovely outfits but oh how I wish I could wear heels!
I am loving all these outfits ,that dress is gorgeous! I love that you can mix a few of these up to make another outfit if you need to.
