Reader Request - The Working Woman

Greetings Fashion Pad Readers,


Did we have a good weekend? I hope you all did. I enjoyed mine and purchased a couple items from Nordstrom's....you know they've kicked off their Anniversary sale **smiling from ear to ear**. Now let's kick this week off with a reader request from fab reader Botlhale, see below



Hi Shane…

I reli like ur blog, I have a bit of a problem, I work in the finance industry and we are expected to wear suits for all meetings we attend. I would like very beautiful suit designs and worker wear ideas. Please help me with ideas and links




Thank u…



This is great Botlhale! I was planning to update my professional wardrobe as well. I love symbiotic requests! Check out what I've created below as well as some sites and individual pieces to help separate your style from others. Since you have limited stores to choose from, don't purchase your entire outfit from one store. Piece your items together from different stores to come up with a unique style. Also, hit up some online stores. They offer quick delivery and if you're unsure of the fit, you can always call and see how their products are sized (i.e. US or European fit).

I'd say the basic items you need to set yourself apart and bring a stylish look to your appearance are the following:

1. Cardigan
2. Blazer
3. Pumps (in subtle and bold colors)
4. Belts (thin and wide - cinches the waist and changes up the look)
5. Pearls (everything looks professional with this classic item)

Check out the following retailers for career items:

- Banana Republic (my absolute favorite)
- New York & Company (hot items for really affordable prices)
- Sears (really affordable finds.....and they always have a good sale)
- Macys
- Bloomingdales
- Ann Taylor Loft
- White House Black Market
- Anthropologie
- Nine West (nice pumps and flats)
- TJ Maxx
- Marshall's
- Gap (cardigan world, trouser world, cotton collar dress shirt world.....LOL)
- Old Navy
- Burlington Coat Factory (basic dresses, trousers)
- Bluefly.com
- Endless.com (nice pumps and flats)
- BCBG.com
- Frenchconnection.com
- Mytheresa.com
- Shabbyapple.com


I hope this helps you! Good Luck.



TTFN!
