If you don’t already follow me on Instagram (follow me @_thepinkchickadee!!), you likely aren’t well aware that halfway through the month of May, I started sharing my work outfits on my Instagram (and also Facebook) stories. As I wrap up my June work month *just a bit earlier than usual* due to a much-needed beach week in South Carolina with some of my very best friends, I am filled with so much gratitude for deciding to share my work outfits here on this incredible platform. It has truly become such a highlight of mine to be able to share my work outfits with y’all. I *even* shared that I am sharing my work outfits with y’all on my LinkedIn of ALL places – LOL!

Back story: when I was in high school, it became such a highlight of mine to plan out my outfits the night beforehand, especially as my days became CONSUMED with AP course work, SAT prep, college applications, and extracurriculars aka the typical high school student life of an over-achiever like myself. Outfits were THE highlight of my high school years. I *even* had a blog where I literally just posted my outfits my Senior year of high school (like 2016!) called Katie’s Closet Blog! Then, into college, I began dressing a bit more casual as I LOVED getting to sleep in aka THE college lifestyle. And, then, COVID-19 hit at the end of my Junior year of college, which meant slumber wear all day every day with the exception of a few days here and there. This whole casual dress attire of mine continued into my post-graduate years with the work from home lifestyle. I actually used to HATE work from home, due to the fact that I missed getting to dress up in a cute outfit around others everyday. However, in recent months I have grown to LOVE the primarily work from home lifestyle, as I have so much freedom and flexibility and no commute within my day to day routine. BUT, I was missing getting to showcase my super cute outfits.

Innovate is the word for my work from home outfits. Innovate is ALSO one of the biggest key words of my company in the ways that its growing. As crazy as it seems, innovate is a word that I LOVE and see as key to my personal life in so many different ways. So, yes, innovation is what allows me to share my outfits with y’all without feeling like I am missing out on doing so in my day to day life. The highlight of my high school days, which kept me going throughout those loooonggg days of essentially prepping for college, now keep me going in my postgraduate life.

I decided to combine my May and June work outfits into one blog post, due to starting sharing my May work outfits in the middle of the month and going on vacation the last 7 work days of June. I have recently gotten away from sharing outfits via the Shop LTK platform, as I want my looks to solely serve as inspiration from one’s own closet, rather than a place to simply impose consumerism when it may not be right for others. Any how, I hope you enjoy!
