Can You Wear a Bomber Jacket to the Office?

Bomber jackets in sophisticated fabrics have been around for a year or two now — can you wear bomber jackets to the office? I’m excited to hear what you guys think, but I of course have a few ideas…
Can Bomber Jackets Replace a Blazer?
For the most part, I don’t think bomber jackets can replace a blazer — they inherently read as more casual. If you swear by the “third piece” rule for dressing, then yes they can absolutely be your third piece — but in my mind they’re more like a trendy cardigan or sweater jacket or other soft, structured layer.
Because it’s more relaxed, it is likely never going to be appropriate for the most conservative moments like court, formal presentations, or your first week at a job. Instead, it’s like a piece of clothing that we would have said was appropriate for dress-down Friday (back when that was a thing) or non-VIP days. Think internal meetings, travel days, conferences, business casual offices in general.
You can dress it up or down with your accessories and other pieces — add structure like tailored trousers or a crisp blouse to dress it up, and make it more casual with something like pants cut like denim (jeans, cords) or more flowy fabrics (linen, satin).
Are Bomber Jackets Outside Jackets or Inside Jackets?
It depends on the bomber jacket, honestly — I think you have to look at the materials. For example, this suede bomber jacket from Anthropologie with prominent hardware and thick ribbing looks more like an outside jacket to me, as does this canvas version from Aritzia. The knit versions are safe, but some of the leather ones (like this version from All Saints) could be worn inside as well, the way you might have worn a leather moto jacket a few years ago — know your office.
There are other differences between office-appropriate bomber jackets and weekend-only bomber jackets — if it’s nylon, oversized, has patches or is reminiscent of a varsity jacket — probably not for work. If, on the flip side, it’s wool, ponte, crepe, or suede or leather with minimal hardware — then it might be appropriate for work.
Work Outfit Ideas with Bomber Jackets
Bomber Jacket + Crisp Blouse + Wide Legged Trousers
This look from Quince is a great example of a work outfit idea — a crisp blouse adds some structure, as well as a nice collar/frame for your face. It hits at the right spot for wide legged pants, and in my opinion the neutral palette in varying shades looks fabulous here.
You can see a similar look at Ann Taylor.
Monotoned & Matchy
You might be saying, SURE, KAT — but where am I going to find matching pieces? But this is one of the trends — for example, Ann Taylor has matching floral knits below (you can also see it here), Aritzia has several options with matching pieces, and All Saints even has a lace bomber jacket.
Failing identical matching pieces, though, just go for the monotone look and match your colors.
Column of Color: Bottom & Top in Matching Colors + Contrasting Bomber Jacket
The column of color: always a trusty workwear outfit. Here it looks a bit more sporty because of the five-pocket jeans — if this won’t work for your office, swap it out for white trousers. You can also see it styled with a matching skirt and sweater tee (it’s the third picture here, or you can just see the image here).
You can also see the column of color look with this raspberry knit bomber jacket at Ann Taylor.
Wear it Like You Would a Cardigan
I mean, let’s not overcomplicate things, am I right? If you would have grabbed a cardigan in the past, this is an easy thing to grab to ward off the office A/C or the spring chill.

A reader asked if we could do a hunt for work dresses, tops, and more with wrap details… yes’m! I hadn’t noticed it as a trend, but a few pieces immediately flew to my mind — although these admittedly are not new, but I’ve always loved them…
Looking around, though, there are indeed a ton of work pieces with wrap details — so here’s a big collection.
Readers, what are your thoughts — are you wearing wrap dresses, tops, blazers or more? If not, is it a fit/gaping issue (a slip is a must for a true wrap dress!), a style issue, or just that you don’t think they’re flattering styles on you?
The Best Work Separates with Wrap Details

On the scene at a MACRO event, Olandria wore a black ensemble featuring a sheer Do Long bodysuit paired with a draped mini skirt from Femme LA. Styled by The Reismans, the look balanced sheer elements with structured draping.
The long-sleeve bodysuit featured a high-cut silhouette with a fully sheer finish, creating a sleek base layer. It was styled with a draped mini skirt that wrapped across the hips and extended into a trailing sash detail, adding movement and contrast to the fitted bodysuit.
Olandria completed the look with pointed-toe black heels, maintaining a monochromatic palette. Her hair, styled by Joyboylace, was worn in soft waves, while makeup by Kimora Mulan featured a neutral glam finish.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about the brand Songmont, and I love the looks of this chic “Gather” bag. I like all of the different ways it can be worn, and something about it feels fresh.
I’m of course a fan of the blue, but it also comes in onyx, ebony, “ochre suede” and “cloud.”
The bag is $529, and some colors are available now — the pictured blue and ebony can both be pre-ordered for shipping within the month.

On Stage at the Little Miss Drama Tour: Cardi B in Teal, Plaid, and Red Crystal-Embellished Bryan Hearns Looks
Cardi B took the stage during her Little Miss Drama Tour in a series of custom Bryan Hearns looks styled by Kollin Carter. Known for his high-impact, performance-driven designs, Hearns delivered bold silhouettes, intricate embellishments, and dramatic textures that aligned with the energy of the tour.
One look featured a teal and purple sequin one-shoulder bodysuit with lace-up detailing across the torso, extended fringe accents, and coordinating thigh-high boots. The asymmetrical neckline and high-shine finish created a dynamic effect under stage lights, while the fringe added movement with each step.
In another moment, Cardi transitioned into a red and black crystal-embellished corset catsuit. The design incorporated structured paneling, sheer mesh inserts, and fringe trim, paired with matching over-the-knee boots. Crystal embellishments throughout the bodice and hips emphasized the corseted shape, creating a defined silhouette on stage.
Both looks reflect Bryan Hearns’ signature aesthetic—bold, embellished, and engineered for performance—while Kollin Carter’s styling maintains Cardi B’s recognizable stage presence.

Lauren Sanchez Bezos in White and Black Sergio Hudson Fall 2026 Structured Peplum and Colorblock Knit Dresses on Television Appearances
Lauren Sánchez Bezos made recent television appearances to promote her New York Times bestselling children’s book The Fly Who Flew Under the Sea, stepping out in two looks from Sergio Hudson’s Fall 2026 runway collection.
For one appearance, she wore a white structured peplum jacket paired with a coordinating fluted skirt, a tailored set that emphasized clean lines and sculptural volume.
In another look, she opted for a black and ivory colorblock long-sleeve dress featuring a high neckline and floral detailing, offering a contrasting take on the designer’s signature precision tailoring.
Both ensembles debuted on the runway during New York Fashion Week and reflect Sergio Hudson’s continued focus on refined silhouettes and bold color composition. According to the designer, Sánchez Bezos acquired a significant portion of the collection directly from the runway.
Which look stands out to you—the white peplum set or the black and ivory colorblock dress?

Zendaya stepped out on Jimmy Kimmel Live wearing a blue floral chiffon gown from Alexander McQueen’s Fall 2026 collection. The halter-neck silhouette featured a sheer overlay with delicate floral prints in soft blue and peach tones, creating a light, airy effect.
The gown was designed with draped detailing across the bodice and cascading layers throughout the skirt, finished with an extended train that added movement and dimension. A long, flowing scarf detail extended from the neckline, amplifying the fluidity of the look.
She completed the ensemble with coordinating pointed-toe heels in a matching blue hue, keeping the focus on the intricate fabric and construction of the dress.

GIY Grow It Yourself: Empowering People To Grow
For this month’s changemaker we have chosen GIY (Grow It Yourself), an award-winning Irish social enterprise dedicated to transforming people’s mindset with food and how they engage with food. Founded in 2008 in Waterford by Michael Kelly, GIY’s mission is simple, it encourages people to live healthier, happier and more sustainable lives by growing some of their own food. You may have seen some of his videos calling out Irish supermarkets and fruit and veg brands on local sourcing and mis labelling.
Through education, advocacy and community-based action, GIY is opening the conversation of some of the most pressing challenges including climate change and biodiversity loss by reconnecting people with the source of their food.
GIY promotes what it calls food empathy: a deeper understanding of the effort, resources and care involved in producing food. By encouraging people to grow even a small portion of what they eat, GIY inspires more mindful consumption, healthier dietary habits and stronger environmental awareness. This approach creates positive behaviour changes such as increased consumption of fresh, seasonal produce, reduced food waste, greater appreciation for local food systems and a stronger connection to nature and community.
GIY delivers a wide range of programmes and campaigns across Ireland which engages communities, schools and workplaces in hands-on food education. Its flagship initiative, GROW at School, provides garden-based learning opportunities for primary school children, combining food growing with lessons in nutrition, sustainability and wellbeing. The organisation’s ambition is to ensure that every child in Ireland has access to food-growing education, fostering lifelong skills and values that support both personal and planetary health.
Looking ahead, GIY aims to inspire 100 million people worldwide to grow, cook and eat some of their own food by 2030, positioning Ireland as a leader in sustainable food education and citizen action.
GIY demonstrates that meaningful change does not always begin with large-scale infrastructure or policy shifts, it can begin in a garden, a schoolyard or a windowsill.

Fit20 Training Method Of Choice To Preserve Muscle Mass During Glp-1 Agonists Use
With millions now using GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy for weight loss, a growing body of evidence highlights a significant side effect which is the substantial loss of lean muscle mass. Studies show that 20% – 40% of the weight lost on these drugs can come from muscle tissue – the same phenomenon that occurs with any form of caloric restriction.
fit20 offers a uniquely effective counter measure that does not require excessive weight training.
The fit20 method uses slow, controlled, achievable resistance training under the guidance of a personal trainer. Using the proven method of ‘momentary muscular failure’ which is working a muscle until it is at is peak tension point, when the body sends a signal to the muscle to use all its fibres strengthening the muscle.
Mark Bundschu, fit20 Ireland owner explains. “During fit20 training, when we are working the muscle, the brain sends a signal saying, ‘‘muscle is required – keep it’, as a result, muscle protein is spared for energy production, metabolism is protected, and the negative effects of rapid weight loss are dramatically reduced. During caloric restriction the body unfortunately converts muscle into fuel. By taking each exercise to true momentary muscle failure, fit20 tells the body that muscle maintenance is non-negotiable and recruits every fibre. This is especially valuable for the rapidly growing number of people using GLP-1 agonists.”
A single fit20 session lasts just 20 minutes, is performed once per week, requires no change of clothes, produces no sweat, and is suitable for every age and fitness level. The low-impact, machine-based protocol is safe, measurable and highly efficient. Located in Dublin and Donegal, fit20 is perfectly positioned to support both existing clients and the influx of new members who are losing weight with medication or diet. Located in Unit 3, Blackglen Village Centre in Sandyford, Dublin 18. For further information, visit www.fit20.com
