My work wardrobe is mostly basics, but GOOD basics. I love to mix in affordable pieces for fun. I’ve built a solid wardrobe of high quality items that have held up through multiple treks in/out of the city and through all New England seasons!

Tops!
Wanted a “nicer” looking rain jacket to wear to work on rainy days & love this north face one. I’ve had it for at least 5 years now & it’s still in great shape
Women's City Breeze Rain Jacket
Have this in almost every color it comes in; amazing staple to have in your closet
Women's The A&F Paloma Top
Another great staple item for work! So easily to build an outfit around these blouses - have them in tons of colors!
Carter Blouse | Aritzia US
Also comes in a linen version too
Regal Vest - Crepette
Length is a little bit longer than the regal vest
Juris Vest
any lady jacket I feel immediately elevates a work outfit
Lady Jackets
Got the baby pink but tempted to go back and get the other colors! I feel like these will be perfect for work
Women's Short Sleeve Cozy Knit T-Shirt - A New Day
Another target find for the win. Bought the green!
Women's Short Sleeve Cozy Knit Button-Down Cardigan - Universal Thread
Pants!
I have these in at least 5 colors 🤭 my favorite dress pant by far. They hold up so well with wear & gear, washing & drying, etc.
If you’re going to get anything I recommend, let it be these!
I get the regular length (I’m 5’9) and the leng...
The Effortless Pant™ - Crepette™ | Aritzia US
If I’m not wearing the aritzia pants, I’m wearing these ones! Both have held up really well.
I tend to wear these more in fall/winter time because they’re a little thicker so I appreciate the extra warmth in the office!
Women's A&F Sloane Tailored Wide Leg Pant
Love the crepette fabric because it’s so lightweight & comfy!
A&F Harper Tailored Premium Crepe Ultra-Wide Leg Pant
Dresses!
Any hill house style dress will be perfect for the office - love to throw a sweater or jacket over my shoulders
Fit TTS. I wear these either to work or out & about. So comfy!
Sam Edelman Marcie Ballet Flat | Women's Flats and Loafers
Any Sam Edelman or dolce vita flat will be a perfect addition to your wardrobe!
Sam Edelman Michaela Mary Jane Flat | Women's Flats and Loafers
The quality of these are amazing! Love them
The Greta Ballet Flat
I tend to reach for these as my fall/winter work shoe, and the ballet flats are spring/summer
Loraine Bit Loafer
So comfy to walk around the city in!
Reyes ballet flats black leather
I don’t wear this too often to work (still on the hunt for a less chunky sneaker) but I’ll wear these with sundresses or if I walk around the city I’ll switch out of my flats to these
Veja Campo Sneakers
I work in a hospital, so heels aren’t really something I gravitate towards for work, but these are so subtle and I don’t feel overdressed. Also very comfy!
Sam Edelman Bianka Slingback Pump | Women's Heels
Same as the Sam Edelman sling backs, these are a way for me to kinda elevate an outfit at work.
Franco Racer Slingback | Womens Heels
Commuter necessity for New England winters! Depending on how deep the snow is on the sidewalks, I’ll wear these or my LL Bean boots that are a little higher on my ankles to keep snow out 😊
SOREL Out N About IV Waterproof Duck Boot (Women)
Accessories!
My current work tote! Holds up really well - the quality is great!
Leatherology Alex Vertical Work Tote
Don’t have this one, but my friends do and love theirs!
BÉIS 'The Work Tote'
I have to keep a water bottle in my office to make sure I stay hydrated throughout the day

I’ve been using Nuuly for a few years now. I love being able to add new pieces to my closet each month for work & any other event I have going on!
Nuuly
Similar to Nuuly, I’ve been using RTR for a few years now. You can’t go wrong with either tbh. I also love that you can pause your membership whenever you want and both have great customer service!
