I had a number of requests for workwear in this latest batch of “WYSF” (what-you’re-shopping-for) questions, and wanted to share a selection of updated office go-to’s that are simple and chic. I’ve skewed this roundup towards the layerable/versatile/underpinning/basic finds! I must first go googly eyed at this fabulous Veronica Beard blouse (find no. 1 below) — such a fantastic twist on the white blouse. Next: these Manolo-inspired slides, under $50. They look bright blue in the photo I took of my pair below, but they are more of a true navy IRL. Would look great with a knit dress, cropped trousers, or a skirt. And on the subject of cropped trousers: if I worked a traditional job, I would invest in this pair from Vince — totally timeless. Audrey vibes? So good! For more of a splurge/upgrade/trendy pick, check out HighSport. People are on wait-lists for these!
