Suits
For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.
So: let’s all try to ignore the come-hither look from the model, and the fact that the suit comes from Victoria’s Secret — call me crazy, but I think this could be a cute suit, as well as two really nice separates, for even a conservative office. On the jacket, I like the obvious grosgrain seaming on the back, as well as the peplum details. The skirt looks like your basic ponte pencil skirt, but I like that instead of a slit there are closed kick pleats. The suit is available in both black and “plum velvet” (pictured). The jacket (Ponte Jacket) is $128, and the skirt (Pencil Skirt) is $49.50.
