Ladies, it’s been far too long since we’ve had a check-in to see what you’re reading, what TV you’re bingeing on, what movies you’ve loved, and more (games?). What would you recommend?

Suit of the Week: Red Fleece
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.

Coffee Break: Asher Drop Earrings
Oooh: I’ve always liked the stones and settings for Kendra Scott, but the long pendants and bigger earrings aren’t always my cup of tea.

Splurge Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Victoria Paneled Pants
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

Something on your mind? Chat about it here. Oooh: this ribbed tank dress looks kind of perfect for a casual weekend.
