Back to work? 10 timeless pieces to add to your closet

Back to work blues? Not on My Watch.

Ah, summer. Sun, sand, and the sweet freedom from the daily grind. But alas, all good things must come to an end, and so it is with our beloved summer vacations. As we trade in our flip-flops for loafers and our beach towels for giant work totes carrying our heavy laptop, a wave of post-summer work blues can wash over us. But fear not, we’re here to help you transition back into the working world with style. What’s a better pick-me-up than building a capsule workwear wardrobe for fall? Picture yourself dressed in a crisp button down, sipping on your oat milk matcha latte, making big swings at work — now that’s something you can get behind.

Building Your Fall Capsule Wardrobe: A Strategic Approach

A capsule wardrobe is like a fashion superhero: it’s small, mighty, and can tackle any style challenge. When building your fall capsule, focus on versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched to create endless outfits. Think classic blazers, tailored trousers, vests and timeless dresses.

Styling Tips: Elevate Your Workwear Game

Accessorize with Purpose: A statement necklace can instantly elevate a simple blouse, while a chic handbag can add a touch of luxury to any outfit.

Play with Textures: Incorporate different textures, like corduroy, leather and cashmere, to add depth and interest to your wardrobe.

Don’t Be Afraid to Experiment: Step outside your comfort zone and try new trends. A timeless dress or a statement coat can be a fun and unexpected addition to your workwear.
