Now that I’ve recently divulged my secret for loving all things reality tv, I feel like this is a safe place to talk about how much I am a fan of Jillian Harris, of the Bachelorette fame. The perky Canadian interior designer is also a fabulous fashionista and I love to follow her fashion sense. Case in point today. The perfect “work-y” type outfit that is still bright and perfect for summer.

First let’s talk about that adorable blazer. The key to a good one is fit, fit, fit. You don’t want to look like you borrow your man’s. Blazers are not meant to be frumpy, but sleek and sassy. The white color is perfect for summer.

Since it is summer, you want to make sure you love the look of your top sans the blazer. A top in a lightweight material like this one is also key.

If you are going to tuck in your shirt, you have to have a very specific type of jean. Not too high wasted, and not too low-rise. For that style I love Citizen.

Skinny belts are perfect for tucking a cute top in. It doesn’t take too much away from the outfit and no girl wants anything too much added to her waistline.
