We know that by quitting time on Friday you’re ready to shake off your 9-5 style like a butterfly shimming out of its dinghy cocoon. But rather than slog through five days of drab cardigans and sad pencil skirts, the real question is: how can you bring your weekend bursts of sartorial brilliance to the water cooler and beyond? We know the answer. With a pinch of La DoubleJ, you’ll be shining under those strip lights like you’re strutting down the Champs-Élysées.

First step: breathe some life into the classic button down. Match our Boy Shirt in Palazzo or Galletti prints with a pair of wide-leg velvet trousers or a jewel-toned skirt for power dressing with a punch of pattern. Or try breaking up an all-work-no-play skirt suit by wearing your blazer with our Slinky Skirt in Pavone print, you can even add a vintage pin to your shirt collar to go the extra mile. Finally, if your place of business is ultra-strict with the dress code, try a Domino Rosa patterned Loden coat to throw over your little black dress as soon as you set foot outside. You’ll be a breath of fresh air.
