We did our big roundup of classic, comfortable work heels yesterday — but every so often you want to wear something fun! I don’t think I’ve seen such a tweedy, textured shoe as this before, and I really like the flared block heel. We’re picturing it in the “lotus multi tweed” (which I’d probably wear … Read More about Coffee Break: Jayant Pump

Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Ella Shirt
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Huh: I kind of really like this shirt, from preppy brand Fred and Sibel — it feels like a fresh take on a really classic, menswear-inspired blouse. I particularly like the long cuffs: the horizontal stripes are such a nice … Read More about Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Ella Shirt
Coffee Break: Play! By Sephora
I’ve been meaning to do a bigger review after trying a variety of beauty subscription services over the past year or so, but at this point I don’t remember much except that Ipsy kept sending me brown eye shadow and black liquid liner (neither of which I wear), and Birchbox had a few good months … Read More about Coffee Break: Play!

Friday’s Workwear Report: Fringe-Trim Tweed Shell and Stripe Tweed Pencil Skirt
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

Coffee Break: Medium Liz Reversible Visetos Leather Shopper
The below content is about the 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I’m generally not a “logo bag” kind of girl, but even I’ve noticed the huge popularity of MCM’s line of logo bags. Their leather is soft and supple in real life, and if you like the look they’re definitely more lux than the logo bags … Read More about Coffee Break: Medium Liz Reversible Visetos Leather Shopper

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.
