March started with coats and ended with bare arms, and somewhere in the middle the month became what I always want spring dressing to be. Color and print stayed constant throughout, moving between heavier layers in the early weeks and the lighter, sun-filled pieces that came as the season settled in. By the final week the coats had quietly disappeared, and what was left felt exactly right for where we are now.

I like the sophisticated vibe to these Mary Jane flats from Margaux.

The Mary Jane trend isn’t showing any times of stopping soon, and I do feel like the square toe, along with the slight V to the vamp, gives this a more sophisticated feel than a lot of similar flats out there. I love the leopard and while I normally think of it as more of a fall print, I think it can work well in spring also. (They also come in 12 other colors if leopard isn’t for you!)

The shoes are $370, available in US sizes 4.5 to 14 in medium, narrow, and wide sizes. You can also find the shoes at Nordstrom!

(Psst: we just updated our guide to the best work heels for wide widths!)

The WSJ had an interesting story a few days ago that reported on a new analysis that showed which workplaces provide the best earnings potential and professional growth — overall and for your specific job. They even had a fun graphic on which companies are best for early career, which are best for growth, and which are best for stability for the long term. I thought it raised a lot of interesting questions, so let’s discuss!

Wherever you are in the process, I’d love to hear your thoughts —

• What kind of qualities are you looking for in a company for early career?
• What kind of company environments offer the best growth opportunities for people?
• As you get more senior, what are you looking for in a company for the long haul? How does it differ based on what you were looking for early career?
• What are green and red flags you can look for in the interview process?
• (And maybe most importantly, how can you know when your specific job environment is no longer meeting your needs?)

Here’s a gift link to the article… (and a gift link to the article linked within that article, one that talks about what the “best places” do to foster a nice job environment, at least for newbies). (To some extent we’ve talked about the best employee benefits and perks, but this is another great topic for discusion!)

For my $.02…

If I were advising someone just starting out — I would tell them that there is a certain cache to a big name, but you have to seriously look at growth potential. If you aren’t growing and learning then it’s time to move on from the big name. Meanwhile I’d look for red flags suggesting that the lower employees are unhappy. To a certain extent in a field like BigLaw you expect the 1st and 2d year associates to be unhappy (as Donald Draper shouted, THAT’S WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR), but even in that environment some firms are known to be worse (sometimes worse for just women). I think I’d look at who has stayed — what the 3rd, 4th, and 5th year class looks like.

For someone looking for their second or third jobs, I would look for a degree of independence but with structural support for mentoring. You don’t want to be without guidance or reinventing the wheel, after all, but you also don’t want to be micromanaged or not allowed to grow. I might ask questions in the interview about what the mentoring culture is like, or even ask the interviewee to talk about some of the best growth opportunities they’ve had an how much guidance they’ve received. This is also the time to start asking about work/life balance.

For someone looking for a more senior job, I think the analysis nailed it with stability. What is going to be a stable environment for you for the long haul, in terms of work/life balance, remuneration, intellectual engagement, and more? What is going to be a stable job in terms of industry and environment changes (just to pick one example, a job at TiVo in 2005 is going to look a lot more attractive than a job at TiVo in 2020).

What say you, readers — what do you consider the ideal job environment when you’re starting out, when you’re mid-career, and when you’re senior?

Outfit Details:
Alemais Dress (more sizes here), Altuzarra Tote, Dior Sunglasses, JB x Margaux Sandals

The case for the mini dress is simple: when the proportions are right, nothing else feels quite as clean. I don’t typically reach for this silhouette, but this Alemais denim version makes a compelling argument — the washed finish reads more like a statement piece than a basic, and the fitted shape keeps it sharp rather than too casual. Paired with a structured bag and simple accessories, it becomes the kind of outfit that requires no second-guessing. This is the mini dress for people who don’t usually wear mini dresses.
