Worn with a sheer, flowery blouse, the black office costume is styled in a more feminine and romantic way. For me this has always been a way to create some dynamic around the black jacket. There are a lot of variations of flowery blouses in sheer and transparent fabrics out in the shops, or perhaps even in your closets.

Chunky Necklace
