The last time most people were in the office was approximately one pair of stupid pants and half a sequined duster ago. And while ripped jeans and Target graphic tees are a delight, they probably aren't going to fly in one-on-ones with your boss.
And yet pre-COVID (March of 2020 to be exact), when most people were actually in...
A lovely reader wrote in recently asking for help with summer workwear options. While I haven't worked in an office for quite a few years, I have a deep love for gorgeous pants, blazers and pretty color combos when it comes to workwear. I found myself pulling this together and wanting to find some occasions to wear these to...
A friend of S' recently sent us this pair of amazing, flared SPANX. She often wears plus sizes, and swears that these are the best plus-size pants she's ever tried -- super flattering and the perfect fit.
You know how we feel about the SPANX faux leather leggings and Moto leggings already…but these? Even more versatile -- and they come...
I used to shiver a little when I heard the word "tights" (nylons, pantyhose, or stockings depending on how you know them). Immediately my mind goes to being a young girl having to wear them under my Easter dress. I always felt like I had to be very proper while wearing a pair -- any playtime, sudden movement, or...
Banana Republic has a new line of elevated essentials: BR Standard. They've created basics with luxe details and better fits that just feel...effortless (and perfect for every day). I immediately fell in love with their Scuba-Knit Hoodie, On the Go Leggings, and Essential Trainer Sneakers (ooh, I'm picturing each of them in that olive green color -- how cute...

I was invited to speak at a conference recently, and in the course of planning my outfit, I started looking for shoes that leaned more towards Serious Professional than my usual vibe — I Worked Out And Haven't Yet Showered. I was looking for pumps, but sharp, boss babe ones. The problem, of course, is that most of these...
I'm admittedly a little late to jumping on the whole silky midi skirt trend, but it doesn't seem like it's going anywhere soon, so I'm gonna go with...better late than never? (The same goes for my obsession with Schitt's Creek -- we just started with Season One when we got back from Yosemite, and it's had me snorting tea...
After I posted about camo pants a few weeks back, some of you were asking how we'd style them for work. They might not be appropriate for the most conservative office, but I think they could work well in almost any other office setting. Here are here are four ways I'd wear them to work.
How To Dress Up Camo...
When I was teaching I tried to dress professionally and fashionably, but I sometimes found myself in a style rut. I mean, the last thing I wanted to do in the morning was try on outfits or think about what to wear. (NEED. COFFEE.) So coming up with outfit formulas just made things easier. One of my favorite combinations...
