Wednesday’s Workwear Report: Juliet Cardigan

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
I received this Anthropologie cardigan in my most recent Nuuly and I think it may have to become part of my permanent wardrobe. The cashmere is SO soft and even though it came from a clothing rental company, it doesn’t look like it’s pilling, which is a good sign.
I’m a long-waisted gal, and this hits me right at the top of my hip, so I’ve been wearing it with high-waisted pants and skirts. The chocolate brown color is perfect for fall, but I may have to grab one of the striped colorways just for fun.
The sweater is $158 at Anthropologie and comes in sizes XS-XL, XXSP-XLP, and 1X-3X. There are 22 colorways available, but the petite and plus ranges are more limited.
Psst – we’ve rounded up clothing rental services in the past. What are your favorites right now?
Psstx2 – Based on the comments I remembered that we rounded up ways to tell if a cardigan is frumpy! – Kat

Would a prosecutor call someone a dirtbag during open testimony (or otherwise scold a witness)? I know there can be theatrics but not sure how much.
Did you see this happen, or are you trying to gauge the credibility of a story someone told you?
This is in reference to the senate hearing yesterday for Jack Smith.
Are you writing a script or something?
This happened in real life?
Oh I was just wondering because of the Jack Smith thing. The … gentleman asking the Qs said he was a prosecutor so I was wondering if that was a common practice since they seem like similar venues. Seemed really unprofessional but wdik. A woman would be called too emotional.
Ugh that’s so gross. I just think it lowers the level of the discourse right into the basement. And I can’t imagine any judge letting it go by.
Man, Eric Schmitt really came off poorly in that line of questioning. It was actually kind of funny to watch him attempt a “gotcha” and totally fail like that. It was very Trumpian of him to call Smith a dirtbag when Schmitt was clearly the dirtbag in the situation.
One of Camp Mystic’s attorneys told the plaintiffs’ lawyers (representing families of the girls who died on Camp Mystic’s watch) to “burn in hell” totally unprompted, so yes, theatrics are a thing. He got rebuked but I don’t think formally censured.
👀they know they’re the bad guys, right?
Honestly, they really, truly don’t seem to get that. They do not seem to grasp that young girls died totally preventable deaths because of their incompetence.
I am an appellate criminal defense lawyer. I have reviewed hundreds of criminal trials. Some prosecutors cross the line fairly regularly and call people names during closing argument. Sometimes if there is an objection, the court will tell the jury to disregard the statement. The appellate courts very rarely reverse for this and prosecutors are rarely formally disciplined for it. A particularly egregious case (that resulted in a murder conviction being overturned and retrial barred and a disciplinary compliant for the prosecutor) was reported in the ABA Journal:
https://www.abajournal.com/news/article/allegations-that-murder-defendant-was-a-drug-ho-who-practiced-witchcraft-leads-to-tossed-conviction
11:50: I deal with them in the trenches where I had to file a motion in limine to keep the prosecutor from calling my client a “black identity extremist.” There was a great article in the Intercept on that label. But lets remember that the current Supreme Court reversed a death row case for gender discrimination. https://theappeal.org/supreme-court-brenda-andrew-sexism-ccould-give-women-new-trials/
Your jurisdiction must be very different than mine. Prosecutors are regularly disciplined/censured for use of terms like “wolf in sheep’s clothing” (describing the murderer of an 8 year old, who lured her off her bike with the promise of video games, raped her, strangled her to death, and dumped her body in a field) or “predator” (describing a serial home invasion rapist). The California Racial Justice Act is truly a thing to behold.
I represented a hospice nurse in an overtime pay claim in federal court. The attorney for the Catholic health care system employer called her greedy and said her claim was “a money grab,” in formal court pleadings. (Because hospice nurses are famously in in for the money.) The judge made clear that he found this offensive.
I once saw a party describe – in federal court motion papers – the opposing party’s discovery practices as a “circle jerk.” The judge’s order included strong language indicating her disapproval.
Ewww!
is it sad that these days I’m like, “at least it wasn’t written by AI”?
OMG
Absolutely not.
A local prosecutor told a judge in sentencing that justice would require taking the defendant out behing the white courthouse and hanging him from a tree. The appellate court did not repeat the quote but said that it noticed.
I’m looking for fashion sneakers that have Hoka trail runner level comfort. My current fashion sneakers are only more comfy than hard shoes. What should I be looking for? Can’t run narrow in the forefoot at all.
Just a suggestion to change out the insoles. I put vionic insoles in all my cute sneakers and some loafers so I get better support and it makes a huge difference. Much more variety in the shoes I can wear for heavy walking days.
+1, I will often size up half a size to leave room for an insole.
I can’t do this or my heels slip too much and make flopping sounds.
I clearly need custom shoes for my problem feets.
Going longer doesn’t make sense to me, either, but finding wider widths in my correct length works when I want to fit cushier insoles or thicker socks in the shoes.
Prob depends on your choice of insole. I like ones that are more heel cup and arch support and those push my foot a little more forward in the shoe.
Ditto! I have several adidas nice looking sneakers – I get the unisex ones so they are juuuuuust wide enough – and I take out the insole and put in my powersteps.
This is the way!
Have a look at TOPO. Not fashion sneakers, but some of the models look less sporty than Hokas.
+1
Naturalizer Morrison (not Morrison 2). They are so, so comfy, wide (I have normal-width feet, but my feet don’t swim in them). Cushy right out of the box!
Very happy to see a classic cardigan, one that I as a [dreaded] Boomer have been wearing since Kindergarten!
Why did they style the model like Heidi? It’s difficult to see it as a classic cardigan and not a Girl Scout uniform.
Lol, someone silly is sure to say “cardigans are on trend again!” The “current!” and “on trend!” discourse here can get a bit ridiculous for items that have never left.
But they are forever frumpy.
Not mine. Shop better?
Nope, have never seen them looking good on anyone.
I have. Is it possible that only one of us can be correct in our assessment? Or is it possible that this is a subjective matter of taste?
Feels like a limitation on your part, tbh.
Eh, I think that that depends on the body wearing it and also the styling skill of the wearer (regardless of size). I’ve seen some people just rock them and when they are ill-sized for the wearer, just look bad. It’s just a clothing item. It is nothing on its own.
If a garment takes skill to wear, count me out. Plenty of garments look great without having to be skilled.
It’s a cardigan. You must be smarter than this.
They are not high fashion but if they fit well are not frumpy. Get over it.
It’s a classic. You like trendy, I like classic. You’re judgy about classic. I’m not judgy about trendy so I won’t be sh1tting on your choices.
Nesting error. This was for 10:39
I like a few classic thin cardigans to take with me for dinners and such. Not part of the outfit but works if it gets chilly. For the office, I need a heavy chunky boyfriend cardigan if the A/C is blasting and could not care less if it is frumpy. I am not wearing it for client meetings or depositions.
gaah! I took the morning off to work on a child’s first FAFSA form. And so far, I keep trying to make an account. Is there a secret to this? Like maybe try late at night when no one else is on or super early in the morning or on a certain type of browser (I’ve tried switching browers, but am about to go on a therapy walk and try again later)?
1st see what browser they recommend, then clear your cache on that browser before beginning.
Yes, it is better to do that form in non-working hours.
Got it! Assuming I can get an account, should I just do the whole thing in the small wee hours of the morning (not a problem, as I rise super-early)? Is there a certain amount of time to allow for that? If it matters, I get a 1099 at work, so my taxes are less vanilla, but if it imports them straight from the 2024 1040, hopefully it’s pretty simple?
Is CSS like this with having to do it at odd hours?
What makes you think you need to do it at an odd hour?
Like maybe the system is at capacity at times? I can recall how the system rollout was not smooth and that there tech glitches or possible capacity issues each year when it opens up.
The CSS has fewer tech issues but requires more information. I have 1099s and have had no issues with the FAFSA’s importing my 1040.
Clear your browser cache and make sure you are using one of the supported browsers.
I remember the first time I filled out the FAFSA I had to dig up more info than I realized I would need, but nothing about it was particularly difficult or terribly time consuming beyond normal, vanilla tax filing stuff. Following years have been breezy to complete. I don’t know why weird hours would be a trick, and suspect you may instead run into issues where the site is being updated or is down for maintenance if you are trying at odd times.
Has anyone tried Bella belts? my belly size fluctuates a lot from day to dsy or even within a day so the endless adjustability appeals to me but i wonder if they are actually flimsy or look cheap in person. TIA.
I haven’t tried Bella but I have tried Anson belts, which appear to be the same thing. I am happy with the quality and don’t think they look cheap. Which is good, because they aren’t inexpensive! I needed something adjustable to get me through weight loss and they worked great for that, but would also provide some room to vary from day to day. You would just need to make sure that you set your length based on a larger day so that you have enough room. I will say that I realized recently that there is a limit to how adjustable they are – that is, I couldn’t tighten the belt enough to fit because the ratchet strip on the inside is only so long, so I had to reduce the overall length instead. I’m not sure if Bella has a longer ratchet strip on the inside of the belt or not, but you might consider that depending on how much flexibility you need from day to day.
Agree with this. They are less adjustable than I thought because of how the ratchet attaches to the buckle.
I have Bella Belts and I like them!
We have an exchange student visiting us from Spain. She and my 16 year old daughter have both never been to NYC, so we plan to take them both there for a weekend. Feeling a little overwhelmed at work with little time to plan and fear neither the exchange student nor my daughter will be willing to speak up and say exactly what they want to do (and I haven’t met the exchange student yet so don’t have a great sense of her interests, though my sense is that she isn’t particularly artsy — nor is my daughter). Any tips on planning? Whare are your must-dos for two 16 year old girls, with you as chaperone? I would like to get some culture/history in, but also happy to support shopping or more frivolous pursuits. TIA!
I like lower Manhattan and the West Village. Tenement Museum tours are fantastic. That puts you close to eating in Chinatown or going somewhere really historic like Fraunces Tavern (listen to The Room Where It Happened) and seeing the 9/11 memorial at the WTC site and somewhere else historic / Hamilton related like Trinity Church. I like being able to see the water.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is nice, particularly going onto the roof because being able to view Central Park from a height is lovely, especially this time of year.
I also like the bleachers at a Yankee game, if they are into that.
I’d probably pair up the Met Museum & Central Park one day and the Empire State Building and Times Square the next (tons of souvenir shops in this area too). Totally dependent on the kids, would they have an interest in these things? Where are you coming from? I’ve also found classic NYC pizzarias are always a hit.
+1. I would go with the typical tourist highlights. If the weather is nice, you could walk over the Brooklyn Bridge and/or take the Staten Island ferry to get a good view of the Statue of Liberty.
Do the main bits.
Walk over the Brooklyn bridge, take the Staten Island ferry, Times Square and walk through Central Park. I’d select a historical museum like the tenement museum and an art museum for the second day. I would suggest the frick collection or Moma.
The rest of the time I’d do the bus tour around town. For food, depends on budget. I like dim sum and would combine that with when you do the tenement museum. Other good eats are pizza (do Joes), bagels (Liberty or Essabagel) and Russ and Daughters.
I have a 15 year old. Forget trying to please them. It is just not going to happen.
What’s a more detailed itinerary for the first day? I don’t see how you can fit all those disparate things in?
Think of iconic spots she’s likely to have seen on film and television. That’s a huge part of the appeal of NYC for young international travelers.
Things that have been hits with my teenage nieces and nephews:
– Broadway shows
– Times Square at night
– bodega meal (BEC for breakfast or chopped cheese lunch/dinner)
– pizza tour (informal, but there are organized ones)
– vintage shopping & people-watching near FIT
– MOMA to see famous pieces in person
– the Guggenheim (it was in a Minions movie)
– streetwear shopping downtown
– Ellis Island museum
– 9/11 museum
Nothing is universally popular, and some things depend on the time of year you’re visiting. I’ve also found that the biggest thing is to make sure there’s some downtime in the schedule. No more than 2 planned events (maybe 3 if 2 are really close to each other) in a day, leaving time to wander or rest.
I lived in NYC for a decade and have taken my teenage daughter three times, so I feel very well-equipped to handle this question! I have discovered that every trip must include an opportunity to get “good pics,” so be sure to factor that in! There are lots of great suggestions, but here are some things that were hits for us:
– If you’re there around the holidays, the Rockettes seem like they’re going to be cheesy, but it’s just so fun and everyone left smiling ear to ear.
– If you won’t be there around the holidays, a Broadway show also feels really special. For teenage girls, I would recommend something like & Juliet, Six, or Wicked.
– I know you say they’re not artsy, but we had a great time at the Blooming Wonders exhibit at Artechouse. It’s very much made for TikTok and my daughter loved walking around to the interactive pieces and taking photos. We were in there for almost two hours and she loved it. We had lunch in Chelsea Market afterwards and she loved that, too.
Also want to shout out Buena Vista Social Club as a broadway option. It’s lovely, beautiful dancing, there’s a young love storyline, and the songs are in Spanish, which might make it hit differently for your exchange student.
definitely go shopping at the $$$$$ stores on 5th avenue. van cleef, tiffany’s, etc. i’d say the Met is good. maybe reach out to the spanish consulate and see if they have any suggestions? things unusual or things from home?
What’s it like to go to those stores as a 16 year old with a teenager’s budget?
So appreciate all of these suggestions — y’all have turned my dread at the prospect of planning into excitement to explore with these girls! Thank you!
For teens I’ve always had luck putting together a long list of possibilities and ask them to curate or at least pick their top couple. Once I get into looking into it, they’ll probably find some fun things to add themselves.
I grew up just outside New York City and would go in with friends for a weekend day as a teenager. I’d focus on areas to shop and food and pick one museum or place of historical significance. I might suggest a Broadway play but something fun where the plot is pretty straightforward for your exchange student to follow if their English is not perfect (Aladdin, etc).
You are getting great suggestions here, but I want to add an unusual one that my teens LOVED when we went to NYC. The Meow Parlour – it’s a cat cafe where you can pet cats. It was such an unexpected but fun hit with my teens!
Go see a few places they know from movies/tv, maybe rewatch something before you go. It’s so fun to suddenly feel that you are walking in an iconic place.
For shopping they might want to go thrifting as much as fancy shopping.
New York at sixteen is bragging rights and the joy of having been there in addition to actually being there. Cool sweatshirt? I bought it in NY. Musical XYZ? I saw that in NY. Food trend XYZ? I had that in NY. Central park in a movie? I’ve been there.
This, especially if she’s a European!
Also, it is cheesy but going to the Empire State Building (or another skyscraper with a viewing platform, or roof terrace) and seeing the vast expense of tall buildings really impressed my younger self decades ago. This is something few European cities have, as they are mostly older in terms of architecture.
I would ask them what viral TikTok food or drink they would like to get. We were just there and my teen daughter wanted a very specific matcha.
Coming to add – the frozen hot chocolate at Serendipity 3 and Magnolia Bakery Cupcakes. If you’re there in Fall, Central Park, the High Line or going to the Cloisters is cool too (specifically for the foliage at the Palisades). You’ll see great color in the West Village too.
I also think the original wood escalators at Macy’s are so cool!
If you were to dress like a female villain on Industry, where would you shop? I hate the people, but they dress so well, especially for fall/winter.
Neiman Marcus.
It’s all very high end clothing. I recognized a sweater my father purchased for my sister from Farlows.
However most of what they are wearing is Chanel bags, the row and other equally expensive brands.
Tom Ford.
I’m sure the answer is, “places that are too expensive for me,” but I love the sentiment.
Any recommendations for pants that go with The Fold Belleville top in black? I am giving a presentation and love the way this top looks, but I don’t want to look like I’m wearing a suit.
I love that top. I’d do something in the grey or black family but patterned like herringbone or tweed or a subtle pinstripe.
same, also I like they way they style it with winter white in the product photos.
agree, go with a subtle print or even a texture — velvet, silk, tweed.
I love the idea of the Belleville with tweed pants.
Is anyone here from Alaska? I have been following Jouppi v. Alaska, where Alaska towns can ban alcohol. In my state, which has cities but is largely rural, it has had some dry towns and counties. But IIRC, they didn’t allow alcohol sales there. You could still possess it. Is this just an area where states can regulate things? I guess I am frustrated because weed is everywhere (as is “hemp” and whatever kratom is). I went to a college where freshman dorms were dry, but no one was over 21, so we shouldn’t have had any booze in the first place.
*laughs in Pennsylvania* yes this is state specific.
Wait — Pennsylvania has dry areas? I feel that it (based on going clubbing in Philly after a wedding) was pretty booze friendly? So many breweries, so many breweries.
it’s relaxed a bit lately but for PA it’s more about distribution control. Until the last few years the only place you could buy wine or liquor was state-run stores and a lot of them were closed Sundays. You also had trouble shipping yourself personal quantities from out of state.
Now you can buy wine and beer at supermarkets that have seating areas and you can ship yourself wine from abroad, etc so it’s not as bad as it has been. Just, emphasizing that alcohol rules can vary wildly by state.
Ohio is the same… you can only buy liquor at state-run stores AND they control the brands/quantities. There are whiskey/bourbon fanatics who line up at like 3 AM on the days a new batch comes out. When we travel to NY to visit my inlaws I try to keep a list of any interesting brands we can’t get in Ohio.
You can get wine and beer almost anywhere, and those alcoholic seltzer drinks are common too if the APV is low enough.
I was shocked when I moved to Philly after college and realized I couldn’t buy beer in a grocery store. And that (due to my lack of car) it was a major errand to get to the liquor store. And then I was shocked again when I moved out of Pennsylvania because I had forgotten it could be *so easy* to buy alcohol.
And that beer and wine/liquor are/were sold separately.
State stores for wine and liquor and beer distributors (or delis) for beer.
We can now get beer and wine in many but not all grocery stores. Nothing at specialty stores (Trader Joe’s) or big box stores that sell groceries (Walmart, Target, Costco)
At my bible-belt state, you can get beer / wine at the grocery store. And in another state, I’ve seen harder stuff (I think) at the grocery store. At a different state, hard liquor at the gas station (and it was Buffalo Trace).
You were in Philly. The rest of the state is notttt like us.
Not only is it state specific, but it can also be town and county specific. Asheville NC is full of breweries, but just south are Clay and Graham Counties, which are both dry (no alcohol sales). And don’t even get me started on the patchwork of dry Sundays, alcohol by the glass restrictions, ABC stores for liquor, etc.
Even if there is no one who can sell you booze, you can still possess it, right? RIGHT (asking for a friend)?
I thought that part of the world just wanted to make sure that if you were selling alcohol, the state revenue man got his share. It’s not exactly benevolent.
You can possess for personal use – but watch out for transporting large quantities because if they think you are transporting to sale it can cause issues.
And for the person who asked, it is no longer about revenue control. The places in North Carolina that ban alcohol sales tend to be very rural and very religious (and adherents of denominations that disapprove of drinking). In fact, they would make more money if they allowed alcohol sales since they could collect the taxes.
It was a huge debate in my home county, which started allowing beer and wine in the 70s and later added hard liquor (at ABC stores – not grocery stores) later. They were trying to grow their tourist infrastructure but most of the nicer chain restaurants need to sell alcohol by the glass to be profitable. They did not want bars or drunk driving, but they were getting killed economically. They eventually caved because they were desperate for jobs but it caused an existential crisis.
My Ohio hometown was completely dry until 2009, when they started allowing package sales. Only in the last couple years they’ve updated the statute to include pours.
Regulating sales or ban sales of alcohol is pretty common.
I understood the OP to be asking about whether states are permitted to ban the possession of alcohol. I’ve never heard of a state doing that
I’m from Alaska, there are many dry villages in the rural areas. In some places you just can’t purchase it, in others you can’t possess it, period. It’s a decision made by the local government. I do think that forfeiture was excessive though.
I’m from a rural area and have many alcoholic family members, but am finding the “rural people have severe problems with alcohol and there’s not enough law enforcement to handle them” to be concerning thinking. The gambling industry has better lawyers, so I’m sure that nothing threatens the availability of sports betting on everyone’s phones.
My understanding is that a lot of these are primarily Alaska native towns, and this is what the towns have decided given how alcohol has ravaged their communities. So I think Alaska is a bit different from just saying rural areas are the problem areas.
Refer to your prior post: https://corporette.com/brf-soft-touch-boatneck-top/#comments
This is an aside but please be careful with regard to your description of kratom. It is absolutely not weed and absolutely not hemp. It’s more like an opioid, can cause dependency and be deadly.
I remember visiting South Carolina sometime back in the dark ages and being absolutely perplexed by their requirement that bars and restaurants serve drinks using airplane bottles – those tiny little ones.
I am from New Mexico, which like Alaska has some counties which do not allow alcohol sales. In both states, this usually originates in tragically high levels of alcoholism and alcohol-related violence among Native American populations. This is not a comment on cultural stereotypes, but merely an acknowledgement of genetic predispositions. Many Native Americans simply do not biologically handle alcohol very well. Native American groups in both New Mexico and Alaska have very robust tribal government organizations, and Native governments themselves work with the state government to decide on alcohol bans.
I grew up in a dry county that was only one of like 5 in the state. County residents finally changed the law in the past 5 years. You could sell beer and like wine coolers, because it’s about alcohol percent. But the really annoying thing was restaurants who wouldn’t open there because most make their $ on alcohol sales not food. Now there are more places to eat which is a nice benefit even if you don’t want to drink. It was very Baptist driven.
I just looked it up, and the OK county where my grandmother was born was dry until 2009. She never really drank and was visibly uncomfortable when others did so. Her parents – especially her mom – were teetotalers born at the beginning of the 20th century. Her attitude caused a lot of conflict with my dad (from a big-drinking WASP family) and even my mom thought it was overkill.
I share the frustration about weed being everywhere. I smell it constantly in public spaces and I absolutely loathe the smell. Frankly, I didn’t really mind tobacco smoke in the 1990s but there is something about weed smoke that is so unpleasant. And as a grumpy old GenX, can someone *please* explain to me why secondhand weed smoke is 100% fine for all concerned but a person smoking tobacco outside of a building is a clear and present danger to us all?
asked yesterday too late – what should i wear to a a bar association cocktail party after work next week? i haven’t been in a few years
A work appropriate dress. Avoid a jacket if you tend to run hot.
a work dress or pants and blouse but elevated in a fun color or fits you super well, or trendy silhouette. just show that it’s not a normal day and you will be better than most
More iced coffee discourse:
https://www.theringer.com/2026/09/30/pop-culture/iced-coffee-job-interview-etiquette-debate-explained
Ha, I lolled a few times: “I simply didn’t realize that receiving a signal from my brain indicating that the water volume of my body had fallen below the threshold for maintaining fluid balance would be a red flag for Merrill Lynch. Had I known, I would have gladly sacrificed the homeostasis essential to my long-term survival for a shot at moving on to the second of nine rounds of interviews for a job we both know is going to an internal candidate anyway. Here I thought I was enjoying a refreshing caramel-flavored treat that wouldn’t affect anyone else in any way, when actually what I was doing was signaling my total unfitness to participate in the economy.”
i’m a bit freaked out by the attempted plane hijacking earlier today. i realize this was very particular circumstances, but shouldn’t there be more vetting of pilots
At least here, the FAA is pretty involved in being up in a pilot’s business.
Yeah, this is far less likely on an American-owned airline because of how uptight the FAA is. If you’re worried, fly US airlines – a large part of the reason they’re so much more expensive is because of all the staffing regulations. More training requirements, more health checks, more strict rest requirements…
Fun fact: airlines based out of countries with cultures where it’s a lot more frowned upon to disagree with or “disrespect” an authority figure tend to have more aviation incidents, since the junior pilot is less likely to correct the senior pilot, even for significant safety stuff.
Do you actually have any reason to believe that there is some sort of systemic inadequacy in “vetting of pilots” or are you just spiraling and trying to infect everyone else with your anxiety that pilots aren’t being vetted as well as they should be?
Don’t you think if there weren’t this would happen a lot more often?
Do any of you use a clear or sheer nail polish that you can just keep adding on here and there over time and not remove at all? I decided I want to try and make my nails look presentable, but I don’t want the hassle of adding a colored nail polish, seeing it chip, having to remove it with polish remover, etc.
a few summers ago I left Londontown’s clear stuff on my toenails for like a month, maybe two. When I finally removed it they were the oddest color of yellow.
I think Nail Envy is intended to be used that, but I’d be wary of leaving anything on your nails.
I have done it; however, keeping the old polish on for extended periods of time (to me) is not a great idea. Not sure how I came to that conclusion.
I do just clear pretty often. It will end up kind of uneven looking if you don’t take earlier polish off with remover! But I can easily go 10 days between polishes since growth and chips are barely visible, so it’s nbd to me.
Consider instead using cuticle oil in a rollerball to improve the look of your natural nails.
I don’t think clear polish layered and layered repeatedly without ever removing it is going to look quite so presentable as you hope.
