‘How was your bank holiday?’ They ask. You say, ‘lovely, but hectic’, and so goes the trite but polite chat we will all have in the office kitchen this Tuesday morning. No one wants to be honest and reveal that really they spent the last three days eating, drinking and lounging in sweatpants with Netflix blaring in the background. It just doesn’t sound impressive. But, the truth means wriggling into a pair of smart work trousers come 8 am is a rude awakening.
Ease yourself back into the 9-to-5 monotony with an outfit that zings. Something that will make you stand up a little straighter but still has enough of your weekend personal style that you’ve become accustomed to, but not so much your boss shoots you side eye during morning meetings. At a loose end about what to wear? Fear not for Instagram has made it easier than ever to make this dream a reality. Scroll down to find four ready-made edible outfit sandwiches to take to work this week…
