So listen – I’m no OP and I’m no Julia from Gal Meets Glam – I wear my Cougar sweatpants to get coffee in the morning, not my couture… aaaaaand my budget is a little more Target Chic than Chanel. That said… I do have pretty discerning taste when it comes to what I put in my closet. I love a good staple (they’re so hard to find!), and I try not to buy anything that I don’t really need or don’t absolutely love. Ye know – that whole quality trumps quantity thing. Everything on this list I have either tried on or own, so I can vouch for all of ’em. Here are my favorite hardworking pieces for work this Fall:
1 – Faux Leather Skirt in Aubergine, ZARA, $59.90 (There’s nothing that feels or looks “faux” about this. It is buttery and flattering and delicious.)
2 – Vintage Brass Bar Monogram Bangle, BIXBY & BALL, $34 (Karrie bought this on one of our last spins through Bixby, and now I think I must have it – looks great layered with a few bangles)
3 – Mira Pump in Vapor Grey, MADEWELL, $168 (Equally stunning in Bright Flame)
4 – Striped A-Line Dress, TOPSHOP, $135 (look at the fun detail at the waist)
5 – Shawled Sweater Coat, ANTHROPOLOGIE, $198 (This is so flattering & cozy on!! More of a sweater than a coat, so it’s perfect for Fall, and for Winter in a warmer climate. Also comes in ivory and in black, but I loved moss.)
6 – Reversible Leather Tote, NORDSTROM, $48 (I like it best in color: black/hematite)
Happy Shopping!
