One of the Ask Magpie questions I received was: “Suggestions for new outfits for work?” This splintered off into more in-depth research, and I thought I’d share my findings in a separate, dedicated post here.
I always feel the need to caveat that I’ve not worked in a traditional office environment for years now. Still, here are some finds that I would consider:
01. White button-down in a great, interesting shape.
02. Navy collarless blazer (or this more sweater-type blazer). So smart with navy pants, dark wash denim, a skirt.
03. Midi dress. Or this black one.
04. New work tote.
05. Trousers with a modern bent.
06. A spectacular statement blazer. Also love the dramatic style of this.
07. Kick fit pants a la the trending High Sports — looks for less with these and these.
08. A smart, low-heeled shoe like this. Forever team pointed toe! Or, splurge on these Pradas. WOW.
09. Longline coatigan like this or this.
10. Gorgeous under-$50 tan striped button down. I’m so drawn to this! Upgrade pick: the Rag & Bone Maxine. So silky and beautiful — the colors are so rich.
11. Dramatic trench coat.
12. High-vamp ballet flat. For something more avant garde, look at Aeyde.
13. Tweed Mango blazer.
14. Boss lady gold knot earrings.
15. Ribbed knit polo sweater.
P.S. Shared more work bag options here.
P.P.S. What does your job say about you?
P.P.P.S. On optimization fatigue.
Ann Mashburn also makes a kick flare that was compared to the High Sport in a New York Magazine article lately and it the author preferred them over the HIgh Sport! I’ve got to try these already!
Thank you for sharing that! Hadn’t seen the Mashburns! I know there are lots of Magpie devotees of that brand!
