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

I fully recognize that these Carolina Herrera pants may fall into the “Ladies Who Lunch” style of dressing, but it doesn’t make me love them any less. The print is gorgeous, the cut is perfect, and if I had four figures to drop casually on a pair of trousers, they would be in my closet immediately.

For the office, I’d try them with a silk blouse or a crisp navy blazer if the coordinating cardigan felt like a little too much look.

The pants are $1,490 at Bloomingdale’s and come in sizes 2-10.

Outfit Details: Zimmermann Dress, Miu Miu Flats (similar here and here), Loewe Sunglasses

Summer whites always feel like the answer to August plans, whether that’s a backyard dinner, a barbecue, or one of the last long weekends before everyone dives into full fall mode. “No white after Labor Day” never felt convincing, and I’m not one to follow fashion rules anyway. When an outfit works, it works, and it doesn’t need permission. 

Head-to-toe white looks best with some texture and dimension to it. Maybe it’s a lace dress with enough detail to stand on its own, or a coordinating set with crochet hem. A light-as-air cotton voile blouse, paired back to a pant with lived-in sensibility. Summer whites ask for woven flats, sunglasses, and bare arms now, then those same pieces become the perfect canvas for a textured knit or quilted jacket come cooler days.

This week’s Amazon Sunday centers on tableware, and in Charleston, where warm evenings last well past Labor Day, outdoor meals are still part of the routine. Printed linens, colorful glasses, scalloped dishes, and playing cards all feel right on a table set for the ease of summer, but earn their spot well beyond.

Chocolate gingham, tortoise flatware, paisley print linens, and colored taper candles bring notes of fall without changing the whole table. If cooler air comes earlier, those pieces make the transition easy. If it stays warm, they still look right outside from lunch through dinner.

I’ve been liking this crochet sweater skirt from Ann Taylor recently, which are not words I thought I would say a) ever and b) especially not during summer. And yet I’ve worn it several times out with friends. I like dressing it up with black and cobalt blue accents (I know, so 2010s of me) and really casual shoes — my Birks one day, my Converse the next. Of course, it would also look nice if I wanted to pull out actual heels or nicer shoes… perhaps with a navy top. Yes.

In any event: the sweater skirt is at Ann Taylor for $139, available in classic and petite sizes; it apparently is a bestseller right now so I’m not alone in really liking it.

My cart always knows a season is turning before the weather forecast at home does. Paisley, jacquard, leopard, and jewel-tone shades of orange, pink, and blue are already pulling me toward fall. A pleated satin belt, bright trousers, and structured suede bag all have that slightly richer, more decorative feeling I start craving this time of year.

For the girls, I’m drawn to that same mix of print and detail in a sweeter direction. Tiny florals, cherries, scalloped pockets, a patterned jacket, and little fringe boots make the start of a new school year feel especially fun to dress for.

The same color and decoration is finding its way into the house. A pleated pink chair, burlwood tissue box, and swirled glass vase give familiar corners a richer, more expressive presence ahead of fall.
