These days I'm generally in a different city every month, meaning I have learned to pack well, even though it technically may not be considered "light." Over the past couple of weeks, I've been in one of my favorite towns, San Francisco. The city has pricey delicious food, impressive architecture, diverse people and some of the best wine selections you find in the country. The Bay Area generally feels like early spring/late fall all year long, therefore, jackets and boots are a wardrobe staple.
I don't work in a formal office environment, but I enjoy dressing for one from time to time. I find that a tailored pair of slacks and a buttoned-down silk blouse is a smart look for any workplace. Adding a pop of color when you are wearing neutrals will make your look more attractive. Throw on a stylish pair of pumps, and you are good to go. My leather jacket may be outerwear, but if you want to look your best, it should start from the moment you walk in the door.
