(SSI) and got their two cents on stylish office dressing. Keep scrollin' to pick up some inspo!

"I prefer to wear wide-leg trousers with a billowy or delicate top for that masculine-feminine feel," says Carmencita Sioson. Brb, snagging her black silk pants from Zara ASAP!

Mitch Suarez sure knows how to accessorize. Take her cue and play up a timelessly simple white shirt with statement gold deets—a dusting of sequins on the collar highly encouraged.

Monochrome outfits are great for the office, too! "I like color-coordination!" says Jeanie Mangonon. "Right now I've paired olive green with a lighter green. It's a quick way to look polished." We agree (and are loving that extra sweet bow detail at the back).

Dewi Valientes is in on the corset trend, also throwing in a hint of floral chinoiserie. "For some reason, I always like wearing white [to work]. It reflects my personality, plus it's clean-looking and professional. I'm not wearing white today, though, so I guess I'm experimenting!"

"Right now, [I'm loving] earrings! I usually just wear simple, wearable pieces to work, so I always add on a few accessories," Mai Cabochon shares. "My current favorites are hoops and tassels."

Marga Jacinto says, "I have to be on point all the time! I still really look for comfort though, so a normal workday outfit for me would be a comfy dress, but always with an interesting element. Really helps to amp it up with accessories, too—for me, usually, it's my watch and earrings."

When asked what her favorite thing about her outfit is, Janna Suarez doesn't even hesitate: "Everything's loose!" she laughs. "It's so easy to move in and everything's so flowy. I'm actually usually in flared jeans, but it's 34 degrees outside, so not today!"

"I find that a pencil skirt can turn any look into an elegant ensemble and it just gives me that boost in confidence," Rasha Hizon says. What she loves about her current getup? "It's something that can take me from day to night with just a tweak in styling!"
