With packed schedules, varying responsibilities, and limited brain space, the last thing most people want to spend time thinking about is what they’re going to wear to the office. It seem like an unimportant task when compared to everything else, however, studies have proven that what you wear to work will subconsciously effect your performance that day; making the added task a little more important than it gets credit for in our daily lives. A simple solution to this is creating a capsule wardrobe collection containing all of your workwear essentials. Brands like Iris & Ink and Lawful London make it easy to do so by creating timeless clothing and accessories that accommodate this specific need for the working woman. From tailored trousers to work bags, we’ve rounded up key pieces for your autumn office fashion capsule that are practical yet stylish.
Tailored Trousers & skirts
Autumn is associated with warm earth tones, like dark brown, maroon and forest green. Explore elevated trousers and skirts that will carry you effortlessly through the season, time and time again.
Shoes
The ongoing search for shoes that are professional and comfortable ends now. Discover our top picks for comfortable women’s shoes for the office.
Dresses
We’re always on the hunt for mid-length dresses that double as workwear. These dresses are transitional wardrobe essentials that keep us cool while summer turns into autumn.
Blouses & Blazers
So much of our signature look is defined by how we layer our top half, things like patterned blouses and muted blazers help establish how we present ourselves in the working world. Discover our identity-affirming tops and blazers now.
Work Bags
When it comes to work bags, it’s not about how the overall size, but how organised it is on the inside. Bags that come with compartments for our items, like Lawful London’s line of work bags, are lifesavers when we need to find something in a pinch. At the same time, large bags that sometimes double as black holes can be optimised with handy compartments. Discover stylish and practical work bags below.
