A plus size grey work outfit idea for my “plus size on a budget series!” 

Plus Size on a Budget – Grey Work Outfit

My “Disclaimer”

I want to prevent some anticipated feedback.  So please keep these things in mind:

• “Budget” is relative.  Some people easily spend $300 on sunglasses, while other people allocate $300 for their annual clothing budget.
• You may be able to find these items elsewhere for less.  These are just some “budget-friendly” finds I have come across.  And I typically don’t link to clearance items because they sell out and then people are disappointed.  Also, I have no way of linking to thrift stores, but obviously, if you want to check out your local thrift stores, I think that is a great idea!
• Recycle & reuse.  As with all of my posts, I hope that you can use the pieces you already have in your wardrobe.  Additionally, I assume that you can reuse all of the pieces below in other combinations with things in your closet to create a variety of looks.  Meaning, I think it is unfair to judge the expense of one outfit as though that is the only way to wear the pieces.

Outfit Details

A plus size winter business casual outfit idea in shades of grey.

Start with a beautiful on-trend puff sleeve grey sweater and pair it with plaid pants.

You may remember these dress pants from this outfit.

Top with a plus size grey coat as the weather requires.

Add an unexpected pop of color with some burgundy patent ballet flats.

More Outfit Details

Top the look with some oversized sunglasses.

(They look a lot like these Fendi sunglasses, just sayin’)

And grab a black tote bag.

As for jewelry, keep things understated and feminine.

I chose some halo stud earrings in gold.

And a set of tennis bracelets and set of gold pave rings.

Lastly, add my favorite “drugstore” nude lip: “fairest nude.”

Perfume

As for the perfume, it’s my longtime “signature scent.”

I have been in love with this fragrance, Vera Wang, since college.

It may smell “dated” but I always get compliments on it.

And the best part is that now it’s inexpensive.
