Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

I recently asked a friend (in-house counsel for a large bank) what she’s wearing to work these days, and her immediate response was mid-rise, pull-on pants from prAna.

With the caveat that they might not quite hit the mark if your office skews more toward the “business” side of business casual, I think they’d be great for a job where folks are embracing more of an athleisure look. (I happen to work somewhere where all the men are wearing these ABC trousers from Lululemon, so I think they would fit in nicely!) She said she’s been pairing them with blazers and sweaters and they make her long commute very comfortable. 

The pants are $98 at prAna and come in XS-XXL with short, regular, and tall inseams. They also come in seven other colors, with one on sale.

A printed pant may seem like it comes with styling rules, but I’d make a case for the opposite. The instinct is to go simple on top, something that stays out of the way, but a plain shirt doesn’t balance a printed pant. It just leaves the pant doing all the work alone.

The trick is matching the mood of the pant instead of retreating from it. If the print is a little retro, lean into that bohemian spirit with eyelet trim, or something with real movement to it. If it’s bold and abstract, meet it with an equally bright, unexpected color and a texture that has some weight to it, like a crushed satin.

There’s always more room in my closet for a softly cut romantic top. It’s the easiest thing to reach for over a printed pant. The pant brings the color and the eye-catching moment, but the blouse keeps everything lighter, airier, and ready for any plan.

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women’s suits of 2026!

First: this McQueen suit is a lovely color. Second. I’ve always loved this jacket cut — to me it looks classic but sharp. But: THE SHOES.

Are peep-toe shoes coming back? Are shooties coming back? All we need is an ankle strap and people would’ve called these “swamp shoes” back in the day. Also, the heels themselves look like a weapon.

(Fun fact: Did you know that a stiletto was the 15th century name for a dagger? I saw that in a museum and wondered at it… here’s the Wikipedia page if you’re interested.)

Questions to ponder.

The suit itself is gorgeous and I really do think it’s the prettiest shade of pink. The blazer is $2400, and the pants are $1,150.

This gorgeous chocolate brown color is everywhere this fall. I’m loving this shirtdress from City Chic which looks like a great way to bridge the gap when you want to drink a pumpkin spice latte, but it’s still 80 degrees outside.

I would wear this with these beautiful tortoiseshell flats I found the other day and enjoy my apple cider donuts in the sunshine.

The dress is $149.99 at City Chic and comes in sizes 10-26. It’s also available in black, heavenly pink, and buttermilk.
