Back to Business: Mastering the Office Siren Look

With summer holidays nearly over, it's time for many of us to head back to the office. Say goodbye to flowy skirts and dresses — the office siren is making a comeback. This '90s-inspired trend, which first took off on TikTok in the beginning of this year, romanticizes office life with models and influences from brands like Miu Miu, making us all feel like we're starring in The Devil Wears Prada. At the heart of the office siren look is chic and polished office attire, featuring tailored suits, statement blouses, stylish skirts, and high-quality accessories. Ready to return to office life? Our guide will help you pick out the most stylish outfits for this autumn.


The Key Essentials For Everyday

To nail the office siren look, remember these three essentials: a pencil skirt, pointy heels, and minimalistic accessories. A well-fitted pencil skirt is a cornerstone of this style, offering a sleek and sophisticated silhouette that exudes confidence. Pair it with pointy heels to add a touch of elegance and elongate your legs, ensuring you stride through the office with poise. Minimalistic accessories are key to maintaining a polished yet understated look. Finish off your look with black rectangular glasses. These not only elevate your style but also add a smart, sexy edge that’s perfect for the office.

Commute To The Office In Style

No matter how you reach the office — by car, train, bus, metro, or bike — your commute can still be a stylish affair. Start with a pair of cream loafers; they’re comfortable for walking and add a touch of elegance to your outfit. These versatile shoes effortlessly transition from your commute to your desk, ensuring you look polished from the moment you step out the door. To elevate your office look, incorporate pops of dark burgundy. This rich, sophisticated color can be introduced through various elements such as a sleek handbag, a chic scarf, or even a crochet top. Finish off the look with rectangluar glasss and an elegant belt.

Black And White Always Hits Right

Want to look effortlessly chic every day? A classic black and white combo is the perfect fit for you. Start with a crisp white shirt paired with a sleek black mini skirt and a tailored blazer. Add chic black accessories to elevate the ensemble—think elegant pumps, a statement belt, and minimalist jewelry. This timeless look ensures you command attention and exude professionalism with ease.

Complement your simple yet professional look with fun accessories to keep it office-appropriate, and let your outfit do the talking. Whether it's a pair of leopard print heels or ballerinas, a statement bag, or even a scarf, these daring details will inject energy and excitement into your end-of-week ensemble. Rawr! The weekend is here, and this tiger is ready to hit the town!
