Lush’s Employee Work Uniform

Lush’s Employee Work Uniform

Lush is a place where most people would LOVE to work, and often with such big companies there are unshapely t-shirts, or a very strict work uniform. Being plus size and knowing my style means that as soon as I think of a career, I immediately think of the work uniform. When I found out that it was just black and white clothing at Lush, I was incredibly happy. Black can be seriously stylish as it is, but being able to wear tailored, more fitted options, lace, chiffon, leather, means that I never get bored. After a recent shopping spree I have managed to find my new favourite work outfit…..

First of all I have to point out that I JUMPED with excitement after finding this cardigan. Waterfall creates a much more tailored silhouette on me, so teamed with shoulder pads and in lace, I didn’t blink an eyelid at the £29 it cost.

It’s from Yours Clothing, which start at a 14 in some items and go all the way up to a 32! They do bring this back every few years. It’s really fantastic to wear going out, or for a work uniform.

The top is actually a crop top, I finally found one in an 18 which accommodated for the pups. It was only £8 from Newlook and it has grown with me, I can still fit in it at a size 22.

Last but not least is the long black maxi skirt, which is also from Newlook for just £15! (Thankfully I’m short enough to wear it from a more comfortable waist line). The belt is just one that I picked up from Primark, they have so many belts like this and they can really make an outfit. Not to mention pull you in at the wait and create a more fitted look overall.

This has become an outfit that I’ll wear on days I want to make an effort with my work uniform, and everyone seems to like it!
