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

Let’s talk about sets, baby. Specifically, cardigan twinsets.

I know they get a bad rap for being too preppy, but I’ve always found it useful to have a set on hand for wearing together or mixing and matching. I wear both pieces when I’m meeting with more casual clients who might be put off by suits (I think of it as the women’s equivalent of a men’s golf polo) but also break the pieces up to wear under a blazer or over a dress.

The Charming Cardigan from Talbots is a classic for a reason — it comes in a wide range of sizes, has just enough stretch to be flattering, and is machine washable. It also comes with a matching shell.

The cardigan is $39.50, marked down from $69.50 as part of Talbots’ Summer Stock-Up Sale, and comes in seven colors. It’s available in misses sizes XS–XL, petite sizes P–XL, plus sizes X–3X, and plus petite sizes X–3X.
