Sure, we all know what wardrobe essentials for work professional women are supposed to have in their closets, but if you’re buying one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the right incarnation in stores. In “The Hunt,” we search the stores for a basic item that every woman should have.

Hunting for warm, cozy pants that are comfortable to wear and look polished? Flannel dress pants are great for winter because, unlike a lot of other wool pants, they're not itchy, they drape well, and they're nice and warm.

(Psst: we just rounded up corduroys for work, too!)
