Take a page out of the rapper's book for your next workwear ensemble.

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/cardi-b-style-rapper-paris-fashion-week-designer-looks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cardi B</a> may be known for her bold personality and fashion choices, but the rapper toned it down in her recent outfit, where she was spotted in Los Angeles attending a meeting at Revolve's headquarters.
She sported a fully grey ensemble, turning heads in an effortlessly chic look, comprised of a <a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=230660X1713045&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.revolve.com%2Fhelsa-bold-shoulder-long-coat-in-grey%2Fdp%2FHLSA-WO19%2F%3Fd%3DWomens%26sectionURL%3Dundefined%26srcType%3Ddp_recs_expanded">duster</a> and $248 <a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=230660X1713045&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.revolve.com%2Fhelsa-aadi-knit-dress-in-heather-grey%2Fdp%2FHLSA-WD52%2F%3Fd%3DF%26currency%3DUSD%26countrycode%3DUS%26deeplink%3Dtrue%26utm_source%3Dgoogle%26utm_medium%3Dcpc%26utm_campaign%3DPMax%253A%2BProduct%2BListing%2BAds%2B-%2BPLA%2B-%2BOwned%2BBrands%26gad_source%3D1%26gclid%3DCj0KCQjw99e4BhDiARIsAISE7P-m_iUIT1vsmGVvISXlwpR3EmxyiHQeOVsxVe5tg8JW78XGErCO51IaAtX_EALw_wcB%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds%26size%3DS%26code%3DHLSA-WD52">maxi dress</a>, courtesy of Los Angeles-based Helsa, along with an alligator Herm&egrave;s Birkin (a style she's known to love). And voila, Cardi B proves that the tonal dressing trend, seen on runways and street style, is also perfect for handling business for an office day. She even topped it off with dark grey socks to match, worn with her black stilettos.

What does this teach? To master tonal dressing, choose a color that complements your vibe. Neutral colors like beige, white, black, gray, and navy are particularly classics and easy to work with. But don't be afraid to experiment with bold tones like shades of green, purple, or orange to create a statement look. Layering different shades of the same color, no matter what hue you pick, is key. Mixing textures &mdash; try wool, silk, cotton, or cashmere &mdash; can also add dimension without breaking the color scheme. Never forget to accessorize.&nbsp;
Cardi B's outfit is perfect for the office as it offers a sleek aesthetic that feels professional while also fun, stylish, and versatile for day-to-night transitions. Want to twin the New York-born artist? Keep scrolling to shop the look.&nbsp;
