Researchers have concluded that women love portraying their cool in their attire. In this article, let's see some DIY office outfit ideas for the woman in you.

Salwar:

It is one of the formal and comfortable wear for everyday work. From simple palettes and printed designs to self-embroidery, multiple threads, beads, and tassels, a passionate variation is relished. It can be worn with a dupatta and makes a difference if paired with oxidized or silk-threaded jewelry. 

Not sure which sandal would go perfectly for the salwar? Flats will finish any look, but wedges define them the best when you wear cigarette or palazzo pants.

Saree:

Sarees, be it cotton, linen, chiffon, grape, or silk, are always a handy option for the ones who love traditional fashion. It gives an elegant and professional look and suits all designations. With perfect accessories and styling, you can create any look and make it a trend. The light designs and solid pastel shades are more classy than the overly styled and heavy shimmers.

Are you looking for something new with sarees? Choose a plain saree and a contrast printed blouse. Add an extra wow factor by using oxidized jewels. Painted terracotta, quilling, or wooden jewels with silk-threaded bangles add an exquisite appeal. There you are, in the line of perfection.

Kurti: 

After salwars, Kurti is the soothing choice who would prefer an Indo-western look. From little hem work to the vivid splash of prints with tassels, zari work, and pearls. Neutral shades and lightweight, breathable materials suit formal life.

Confused about how to pair? Usual pants, Patiala, and leggings are a linear option. A palazzo or cigarette pants would add a trendy look apart from jeans or jeggings.

Shirts or blouses:

Not a usual shirt person but need a first-day work outfit idea? All you need is a white or black shirt. You can match them with colored trousers, skirts, palazzo pants or jeans. Choose a shoe that fits your toe type. Wear a light chain, pearl stud and watch for an elegant statement. White goes well with pastel and pop shades, while black is best with soft tones, beige and cerulean, strong olives, and mustard gold.
