Blazers and Cowboy Boots: The New Dotcom Style

Fall is here and it's time to pack up your cute summer dresses and board shorts. This Fall, bring some casual street style to your office. Remember there is no need to look like a homeless lumberjack. Dress up your weekend clothes with a blazer and cowboy boots, and you've got yourself a casually dressed up work look.

A few things to remember:
Cowboy boots and cowboy hats DO NOT work together in Los Angeles....unless it's Halloween.
Ladies, get creative with fun colored blazers, no need to look too corporate.
Men, make sure your blazer is fitted, otherwise, you'll just look like an unsuccessful magician.
Ladies, your cowboy boots SHOULD NOT be tucked under your jeans, this isn't the rodeo.
Men, yours should...

Below are some examples of blazers and cowboy boots done right:
(while we do like to hire people with 'grit', it doesn't mean you need to look like you just walked off the set of "True Grit")

Men, velvet is fine...but NO LIGHT COLORS
Ladies, cotton blazers are so hot right now...

Don't be afraid of a little bit of color, especially if you're wearing them with dark jeans!

Cowboy boots:

Notice how his are tucked under his jeans, and notice how hers are not. You're welcome.


If you're not into the whole "wearing dead animals on your feet" thing, like the lizard skin boots above... consider suede...


haha jk.
