In these business casual examples, we’ll show you how prints can spice up your work wardrobe and boost your mood.
Example #1— Printed Power Blazer
Find the perfect balance between business and casual by pairing together a professional power blazer and a pair of mid-wash denim. Add another pop of print through your accessories—like a skinny leopard belt— if you’re feeling adventurous. A fashion-forward white boot keeps your look both office appropriate and on-trend for 2020.
If your office isn’t denim-friendly, opt for a pair of trousers with a relaxed fit. The boyfriendy fit will keep you from feeling too fancy for your laid-back office.

Example # 2— Statement Making Skirt
At Armoire, we firmly believe that metallics can (and should) be worn to the office. The trick to balancing out bold pieces is pairing them with tried and true workwear staples like a basic black blazer and black tee. To keep the focus on your statement skirt, stick to all-black accessories too. The final look exudes confidence, creativity and plenty of #bssldypwr.
If your office isn’t the t-shirt type, opt for a boho-inspired cream blouse instead. Tuck the blouse into your skirt just as you would a tee. This adds a touch more business to your business casual without the stuffiness of a collared shirt.

Example #3— Attention Grabbing Outerwear
If you’re new to adding prints to your work wardrobe, outerwear is the perfect place to start. In this leopard jacket, you’ll feel confident as hell walking into the office! Layer the loud print over something simple like a polished black sweater and dark wash denim. Finish with black ankle boots and a black leather tote for a look that’s city chic.
If you’re starting to get spring fever (we certainly know we are), opt for a pastel trench instead. The cheery pink hue is guaranteed to brighten your day. Swap your dark wash denim for black trousers or a professional pencil skirt if you need to be a bit more dressed up.
