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. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women's suits of 2026!
Oooh: The Fold just started their summer sale, with prices up to 40% off — including this cobalt suiting from its Clever Crepe line.
Buying suits on sale can always be a bit difficult because the blazer and bottoms may not all be in stock in your size — but the pictured suit has decent quantities of sizes remaining. (But if you're doing a broader search, start with your (UK) size.)
The brand bills their Clever Crepe suiting as machine washable, crease resistant, and adaptable.
The pictured jacket was $565 but is now marked down to $280, and the pants were $325, but are now marked to $160. NICE.
(Readers have always loved the brand's Belleville tops, and if I'm remembering correctly readers have also sung the praises of the brand's shoes!)

where are your favorite places to vacation in june?
Bermuda, Carolinas coast
Greece
New South Wales south coast, around Mollymook and Ulladulla.
Early June or late June? Might seem like a subtle distinction but a lot of schools don’t get out until mid-late June so I find the second half of the month to be much more crowded in popular places. Heat and humidity also ramps up significantly during June in a lot of N. America/Europe so if traveling in latter part of the month I put more emphasis on seeking out places that won’t be scorching.
Personally my family goes to Maine every summer, usually in late June or early July.
early June, my kids got out 5/30 and 6/2 this year.
Europe is great in June. I’ve loved trips to England, Ireland, and Scandanavian countries in early to mid June.
Not California. Its relatively cold and gray here.
Paris – the way the sunset is at like 10pm is magic.
going off this morning’s discussion – i’ve got a long drive coming up with my teenage son. are comedy albums still a thing? any favorites recently? i’m ok with swearing but not racist or explicit jokes.
(or – any great history books or podcasts to listen to on audio? it’s only a 6 hour drive.

Not comedy but definitely funny- my family has always enjoyed listening to reruns of Car Talk.
