Whether you’re adhering to a strict smart dress code or your company has a more relaxed approach, your outfits don’t have to be boring.

But what do the fashion team really wear for the nine-to-five?

I love January! A new start always makes me feel good. 

I also love to give my wardrobe a bit of a refresh at the start of the year. 

Frosty pastels in lightweight wools, like this on-trend triangle scarf, and lots of soft tailoring from Cos have always been my workwear go-tos, because there is nothing worse than being uncomfortable in the office.

I soft-launch my spring wardrobe in January, introducing lots of layering that can be mixed and matched for the season to come.

Following the “new year, new me” ethos, I’m trying to embrace colour. 

And by colour, I mean brown. 

I love this bag from H&M that’s got a hint of The Row about it, which is perfect for throwing in all my pre-prepared lunches – which I will try and make – laptop, spare flats and endless chargers. 

I’m also in love with this coat from Primark, with a nod to heritage that is everywhere at the moment. 

It’s an on-trend winter warmer that will always be a classic with its dog-tooth print. 

With brown as my new black, pairing everything else coloured with my bag makes January dressing a breeze.

This year, I’m coming back into the office channelling Claudia Winkleman in The Traitors. 

Not only am I obsessed with the programme, but I love her style throughout the series. 

There are loads of tartan pieces on the high street, and this skirt from Next is super-soft and comfortable, which is a tick if I need to sit in it for eight hours a day at my desk.

I’ve paired it with some knee-high boots, a bright-red cardigan for a pop of colour and some gold earrings. 

Finishing off with a smart bag to carry all my essentials, I’m ready to hit the office in style.

Our office is lucky to have a fairly relaxed dress code, but this year I’m aiming to step up my style a bit.

I’m loving the long socks trend and I really want to invest in a pair of chunky loafers that will instantly smarten up my look. 

This baby-blue cardigan looks super-cosy and the button-up detailing gives it a more elevated look, plus I’ve been on the hunt for a woollen A-line skirt for a while, complete with belt loops.

I’ve rounded off the look with this premium boxy jacket, ideal for layering well into spring, and a cream tote bag to bring a touch of contrast to the darker tones.
