  • Thursday’s Workwear Report: High-Waist Trousers

    [ad_1] Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Wit & Wisdom has long been one of my favorite mid-priced denim brands, so I’m feeling pretty confident that these skinny trousers will be equally fantastic. The idea of “shaping” pants was a little scary to me at first,…

  • Suit of the Week: J.Crew

    [ad_1] For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning.

I…

  • Wednesday’s Workwear Report: Belted Mock Neck Sweater Dress

    [ad_1] Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

  • Politics… and Resumes – Corporette.com

    [ad_1] There’s a trending story in The Washington Post about how Gen Z applicants are “scrubbing campus political activism from their resumes,” and I thought it might make an interesting discussion here.

  • Coffee Break: Large Chain Necklace

    [ad_1] I’m probably a few years late to the party, but I’ve been hunting for a quality “paperclip chain necklace” that isn’t crazy expensive. (Shiv wore a similar necklace on the first few episodes of the latest season of Succession, so you know they can get super expensive — e.g., see these options from Lagos,…

In the last two years, my work travel…

  • Coffee Break: No-Fog Reading Glasses

    [ad_1] I made the switch to bifocals recently (apparently age 40 is a big turning point for that, and I can now see 40 in my rearview mirror), and when I wear my contacts, reading anything close up (including my phone screen) is almost impossible. (Note: You can buy bifocal and multifocal contact lenses, which…

  • Splurge Monday’s Workwear Report: Lucie Tie-Dyed Silk Crepe de Chine Dress

    [ad_1] Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Tie-dye for work? Have I fully lost my mind? Maybe, but this dress from Altazurra is so gorgeous, it’s worth it. The tie-dyed pattern is meant to resemble “ocean waves lapping against a sandy shoreline,” and I think it…

    [ad_1] Something on your mind? Chat about it here.
