It’s been a while since I shared a casual workwear outfit!
So today I wanted to wear something that’s office appropriate but still fun. Yes I work in a VERY casual office, so this might not work for everyone. But I still think the top would be super cute tucked into a pencil skirt or pants!
I also wanted to share some tips I use to make my days productive and less stressful, partially because I love reading other people’s tips! And work has been SO busy so I’m using these tips everyday.
Top: Target // Jeans: Madewell // Shoes: Target (is it bad that I finally see why people get the Gucci pair? I’m wearing my Target ones out!) // Purse: Old Navy (this one is similar)
do things right away
If you can do something in under a minute, do it! This applies to all tasks from replying to emails to random to-dos. Don’t even spend time writing it down (or trying to remember) if you can just knock it out in under 60 seconds.
write things down!
It’s a must! And when I have things written down I don’t have to spend energy worrying if I forgot something – because I know it’s on my list. Plus then I don’t stress about forgetting things. I also love setting Slack reminders. They’re a true set it and forget it! **This is what I’m trying to do lately because I’ve been thinking about work tasks all night….I gotta just forget about it when I can’t do it!
don’t over commit
Can’t do something? Then don’t say yes! I’m not saying you should say no all the time – but if you honestly don’t have time, just admit it. Being honest with how long things will take is a service for yourself and everyone you work with! Or if you don’t feel comfortable saying no, ask if it’s ok if you do something tomorrow/next week/etc.
Do you guys have any quick tips for helping stay on track at work? I’m always looking for tips or tools to be as efficient as possible! Anything to make things smooth and stress-free will be loved by yours truly. Feel free to leave any tips in the comments or DM me over on Instagram!
