  • How to Be an International Lawyer

    [ad_1] We recently got a great question from a reader who’s wondering how to be an international lawyer. We turned to our law school/young lawyer correspondent, Nicole (who is currently working abroad!) for her tips, as well as Kat’s friend G (a DOJ lawyer on her third overseas assignment) for tips. It’s worthy of noting…

  • Thursday’s Workwear Report: Pull-On Cigarette Ponte Pants

    [ad_1] Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’m never going to say no to a good pair of pull-on pants. These navy pants from Universal Standard have a perfect 28-inch inseam and are made from a fabric that’s well-structured, but stretchy. I would wear these with…

  • The Hunt: The Best Blouses for Work

    [ad_1] Sure, we all know what wardrobe essentials for work professional women are supposed to have in their closets, but if you’re buying one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the right incarnation in stores. In “The Hunt,” we search the stores for…

  • Suit of the Week: Reiss

    [ad_1] 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.

  • Coffee Break: Lior Loafers – Corporette.com

    [ad_1] I’m sure we’ve featured these Sam Edelman loafers before (yep, back in 2020!) — but they have a bunch of fun colors out right now, including this lovely periwinkle (color of the year!). I like the walkability, the horsebit hardware, and the price: they’re $150-$170, with lucky sizes on sale for $99. Hunting for…

  • Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Layla Sleeveless Bodycon Dress

    [ad_1] Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I love the silhouette of this sleeveless mid-length dress from Reiss. The length, gathered waist, and small leg slit give it a slightly more modern look than your classic sheath dress, but I still think it would pair beautifully…

(The lowest priced tote we’ve recommended previously is this one, at Nordstrom, for $50.) I’ve pictured the Amazon bag in “Blue New” — it’s $14.09 at Amazon. If…
