Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
I work in an office where I don’t necessarily need to wear a blazer every day, but with the weather in the Northeast this time of year, layers are key, and if I need to, I’ll keep layering until I look like Joey Tribbiani.
The houndstooth blazer from Faherty would be a chic topper over my blouse and sweater combo, and the fabric provides a little bit of stretch to accommodate a few extra layers underneath. Do note that some of the reviews mention that the sleeves run a bit long, so if you’re petite, be aware that there may be some alterations in your future.
The blazer is $278 at Nordstrom and comes in sizes XXS-XXL.
