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

This verdant green skirt from Misook somehow looks both polished and incredibly comfortable. I tend to veer away from knit skirts because they can be clingy in the wrong ways, but the shape of this looks just right.

I would pair this with navy, cream, or camel if you’re looking for neutrals, but you could also grab this matching top for a full-on green look.

The skirt is $288 at Nordstrom and comes in sizes XS-1X.

Alas, Sephora’s sunscreen kit is sold out — but I actually think this one from Dermstore is better.

First, this one has almost every reader favorite sunscreen that you can legally buy in America — Elta MD, Supergoop, and Roche Posay — as well as a sunscreen spray, mineral sunscreen, and while I don’t know much about the Paula’s Choice one, I trust the brand and like that they describe it as “brightens, moisturizes, and leaves a radiant, soft glow.”

I also like that there are a variety of sizes here — some super mini “deluxe samples” to throw into your bag, as well as some bigger sizes, and many TSA-approved sizes.

The kit is a $208 value for $75 (at least for now, full price is $100).

Psst: have you heard that some Korean and Japanese brands are reformulating their sunscreens to be sold in the US? Here’s a link to Fifty Shades of Snail discussing it on her FB page.

Broadway’s biggest night brought out some of the most memorable fashion moments of the year. The 79th Annual Tony Awards, held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, delivered red carpet looks that ranged from dramatic couture to sharp tailoring. Fashion Bomb Daily was on the scene to break down the best dressed.

Jeremy Pope set the tone early, arriving in a Robert Wun Spring 2026 Couture black and white ombre pleated gown with a structured blazer, dramatic cape sleeves, and a wide-brim hat. The Broadway star made an undeniable statement, cementing his place as one of the evening’s most talked-about style moments.

Danielle Brooks kept it glamorous in a Wiederhoeft SS26 RTW silver crystal embellished off-shoulder fitted gown, styled by stylist D. Hawk. The look was equal parts Old Hollywood and modern luxury.

Queen Latifah commanded the carpet in a Naeem Khan Fall 2017 black iridescent feather cape with sheer beaded collar detail — a throwback piece that still felt entirely of the moment.

Ayesha Curry turned heads in a Monse Resort 2027 red halter fringe ombre maxi gown, styled by Jason Bolden. The look was bold, graphic, and perfectly tailored to the drama of the evening.

Sarah Paulson arrived alongside Ella Beatty, stepping out in Erdem Fall/Winter 2026 RTW, styled by Karla Welch. Paulson’s look was refined and quietly powerful — a masterclass in understated elegance. Beatty complemented her in Tom Ford for Gucci.

On the men’s side, Leslie Odom Jr. brought downtown cool to the red carpet in a Public School FW26 Men’s red satin bomber jacket paired with black trousers and a tie, styled by Avo Yermagyan. Law Roach kept it sleek and sophisticated in a Louis Vuitton black satin-lapel double-breasted tuxedo blazer, finished with a floral brooch.

Law Roach, who co-produced CATS: The Jellicle Ball, kept it sleek and sophisticated in a Louis Vuitton black satin-lapel double-breasted tuxedo blazer, finished with a floral brooch and worn open with a relaxed confidence that only he could pull off.

Usher and Jenn Goicoechea arrived as a true fashion couple — Usher in a Tom Ford brown leather blazer with black shirt and trousers, while Goicoechea wore a Fjolla Haxhismajli nude and black geometric sequin plunge neck fitted gown. Both were styled by Jeremy Haynes.

From couture to contemporary, the 2026 Tony Awards proved that Broadway’s fashion game is second to none.

I was looking at a few of our older career advice articles, and it got me thinking about something I don’t think we’ve discussed before: what took you TOO LONG to learn about work? Was it something about office politics, promotions, networking, compensation, leadership, boundaries, burnout, job-hopping, professional friendships, or something else entirely?

When I look back on my own career, there are a number of things that seem obvious in retrospect but took me years to figure out. Some were lessons I had technically heard before but didn’t really understand until I experienced them firsthand. Others were things nobody told me at all.

For example:

• Doing excellent work is important, but it doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be recognized or promoted.
• Your job is not your career, and your career is not your life.
• Inspiring confidence in your work is often just as important as doing good work.
• Making your boss look good matters — but so does making sure you get credit for your own work.
• Professional relationships are often built in the spaces between the work, and people generally prefer to work with people they know, like, and trust.
• Sometimes the fastest way to get a raise is to change jobs.
• If you want to advance into leadership, learn how the business actually makes money.
• A good manager can dramatically affect your day-to-day happiness.
• A bad manager can dramatically affect your day-to-day happiness, too — don’t stay under one longer than you have to.

Readers, I’m curious — what took you too long to learn about work? Was it something about office politics, promotions, networking, compensation, leadership, boundaries, burnout, job-hopping, professional friendships, or something else entirely?

And when did you finally learn it — the hard way or the easy way?
