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

Nordstrom’s Halogen brand is one my favorites for inexpensive, classic-looking work basics. This deep blue, cap-sleeve blouse isn’t necessarily the most exciting of purchases, but I can think of five different outfits I could build with it, just using what’s in my closet right now.

The slightly boxy fit means that you’ve got plenty of room to tuck it into a pencil skirt or trousers, but you could also leave it untucked with skinny pants and a blazer for a more casual look.

The top is $49 at Nordstrom and comes in sizes XXS–XXL. It also comes in two other solid colors (light blue and light pink) and four prints. Sizes 1X–3X are available in the pictured color as well as black, white, and eight prints.
