Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I don’t know where I’m going to wear this dress, but I want it in my closet immediately. This coral color is so pretty, and the V-neck and belted waist are super flattering. I usually try to avoid lacy fabrics in the office, but I think this would look great with a white blazer for a more casual office look. If you’re in a part of the country where baby and bridal showers are happening, this would a ... Read More about Thursday’s Workwear Report: Belted Cotton-Blend Corded Lace Midi Shirtdress
Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Textured Collarless Jacket
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. In this Zoom-based world, I’ve been keeping one black and one navy blazer on hand at all times to throw on for video conferences. Honestly, I think I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve put on a full suit since March, and I’ve had multiple court appearances and depositions. This textured collarless blazer would also be a great option to have on hand. It looks like a good length for ... Read More about Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Textured Collarless Jacket
Splurge Monday’s Workwear Report: Sleeveless Silk Blend Top
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This feminine, silk-blend blouse is a great neutral to have on hand for workweek or weekend looks. I would wear this with a white blazer and black pants for a business casual look or with a navy skirt suit for a more formal office. The care instructions suggest that it be dry cleaned, but I’ve had pretty good luck with Martha Stewart’s advice for taking care of silk, so I might risk it after a few ...

Frugal Friday’s Workwear Report: Washable Stretch Silk Tee
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. These $49 washable silk tees are comfy enough for working from home but polished enough to wear under a suit. I bought a few of the washable silk tops from Quince (formerly known as Last Brand) because I’m trying to minimize the amount of dry cleaning I’m sending out these days. This tee has a great cut and is long enough to wear tucked into a pencil skirt or untucked over a pair of skinny pants ... Read More about Frugal Friday’s Workwear Report: Washable Stretch Silk Tee
Wednesday’s Workwear Report: V-Back Dress in Giraffe Printed Bi-Stretch Cotton
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. If you’re into animal prints but are looking for something a bit more subdued than a full-on cheetah print, you might want to give this giraffe-print dress a look. It’s a lightweight cotton/elastane fabric with a slightly dipped V in the back. For an office look, I would wear this with a navy blazer or cardigan and some gold jewelry. If you really like the giraffe look, there’s also a matching ... Read More about Wednesday’s Workwear Report: V-Back Dress in Giraffe Printed Bi-Stretch Cotton
The Best Dressed Woman in Government
Today's guest post is by Christina of The Style of Politics, a great blog that critiques women in government... There is one question I am asked more than any other in writing The Style of Politics: Who is the best dressed woman in government? It’s a difficult one to answer, actually. There are a number of women who look great more often than not: Senator Susan Collins, Secretary Hillary Clinton, Rep. Michele Bachmann, Speaker Nancy Pelosi. But my personal favorite wardrobe on the Hill ... Read More about The Best Dressed Woman in Government
Open Thread: Hiding a Baby Bump
How do you hide a baby bump? This struck us as a great question... I'd love to see some suggestions on hiding a baby bump while dressing appropriately for the office. Hiding my growing belly wasn't hard with my first baby. It just wasn't that big. Now I'm pregnant with my second and, true to everything all my friends told me, I'm much bigger, much earlier. I prefer not to tell everyone until the first trimester is over. That means hiding my expanding middle. I moved up a size in trousers (no ... Read More about Open Thread: Hiding a Baby Bump
