Interning at a fashion based group means I can get away with wearing most anything, but I think my outfit today was really affordable, adorable, and wearable for most any work environment. For work, I love pairing neutrals with pops of color or pattern.

Whether you're a college student preparing for your summer internship, or prepping for retirement and just want to step up your wardrobe, no one wants to spend a lot of money on work clothes. For some it's tough to put in the effort, it's the same people in the same place, but how you dress says a lot about you and what direction in the office you want to go. A good dress and some power pumps can give you the confidence you need to get that promotion. Here are some of my favorite places to shop for work clothes, all where you can get an entire outfit for about $50!

H&M - H&M has always been a favorite. Not only do they have a large work wear section, but many of their blouses and dressier casual pants can be worn to work.

Old Navy - Did you know that Old Navy is owned by the same company that owns GAP and Banana Republic? With both of those stores having eclectic and classic styles, you're sure to find similar style in Old Navy. Their clothes lean towards the modest side and their clearance section is amazing.

Kohl's - I seriously searched 'cheap work clothing' and this was one of the first sites to pop up, and boy did it deliver. They have a huge selection that is incredibly affordable and comes in many colors and extended sizes.

T.J. Maxx - Although no online store, since they buy clothes that other retailers can't sell, you can find so many brand names for less, and mix and match styles to get the perfect outfit. Honestly you can find me spending days in one of their stores.

Boohoo - A very young and bold brand, they have some cute stuff, and at pretty much dirt cheap if you shop their sale. I especially like their selection of jackets and blazers you can easily layer.

Bluefly and Rue La La - These sites are definitely on the higher and a bit more expensive side, but if you're looking for name brands and high quality for a steal, these are the places. They have great selection and Rue La La has a calendar of 'events' where the deals rotate.

DSW - For work shoes, I love DSW! I signed up for their rewards program and with a coupon and clearance pricing I got a pair of flats for $10, seriously this place is amazing.

Cato - This place is so cute! I can't believe I never shopped here before now, they have great dress options for work, and shoes as low as $9. Plus with the ultra cheap shipping, this place is such a find.
