Business Casual Outfits Ideas for Fall 2025: Classy, Comfy Looks for Women of All Sizes

Fall is always that time when we have an opportunity to re-introduce ourselves to the world: new habits, fresh air, lower tones, perhaps even a new attitude towards office style. But how do we strike the balance between personality and polish in a manner that is not us, but a uniform?

Whether you’re running a team meeting or grabbing a flat white between calls, fall business casual outfits should feel sharp yet soft, elevated yet wearable. Below are real, wearable outfits that you can actually recreate—especially if you’re one of the women over 40, curvy women, midsize, or just want that seamless “I look amazing without trying” vibe. Let us discuss textures, tones and silhouettes that will make you look put together even on the most rainy, busy office days.

Structured Chocolate: Power Neutral Energy

I am very fond of combining masculine tailoring with soft authority. This appearance is a direct hit to that with a dark, silky button-down shirt tucked into high-waisted beige pants which are floating above the ground. A narrow chocolate belt ties the waist in a perfect manner not too tight and not trying hard. The boxy bag and the pointed toe shoe provide that business polish with no stiffness to it. It is ideal when we want to find women no jeans alternatives that are still entirely contemporary.

This kind of tailored blouse is the type of item I wear repeatedly, it is not too formal, yet not casual, and the slight shine of it makes the entire outfit look much more sophisticated. The wide-leg trousers offer breathing room without looking oversized (a godsend for curvy women and midsize bodies, honestly). You may simply exchange it with women work shoes such as loafers or low heels when you are on your feet the whole day.

Ava, my friend and a creative director in Boston, can vouch by the comfort and structure of these trousers. She informed me over lunch that they give waist without pinching and she was right. They’re especially forgiving on days when you need to feel confident but don’t want to feel restricted.

The only thing I’d tweak? That extra interest may be a statement watch or a statement cuff bracelet. Otherwise, it is the type of office wear professional outfit that would make you feel in control between 8 a.m. and happy hours.

Parisian Classic: Sharp, Feminine, Luxe

The reason why the black-and-white color scheme never goes out of fashion is that it is pure, traditional, and always indicates that a person is not a newbie. This ensemble has a well-cut black jacket with white trim and gold buttons that shouts old-money confidence. The wide-leg white pants, with the pointed black heels and quilted bag are the textbook definition of women business casual, but with couture power.

Such a jacket can upgrade even the most basic base layers in a second. It can be worn on top of a black bodysuit, a fitted knit or even a turtleneck when it gets colder. On older women it gives us that polished sophistication that we so desire without making us look old fashioned. And to be honest, this kind of tailoring suits everybody, no matter how big or small. Women work shoes in a kitten heel will add additional all-day wearability to it.

I personally love this being formal and casual at the same time. To make it on a budget, find structured jackets with a cool contrast detail. According to Harper’s Bazaar’s Fall 2025 trend report, contrast trim and vintage silhouettes are expected to dominate the season—so you’re already ahead of the game.

You know what might push this even further? Just trade the pants in a structured midi skirt or even wide-leg jeans in a dark rinse when it has been approved by your office. A smart way to remix without overthinking.

Cozy Neutrals for Rainy Commutes

You know, those mornings in autumn, when it is all grey outside, and you want to look in a way, which reflects your mood but still makes your colleagues compliment you? This is that outfit. A casual trench on top of a warm-colored knit and the light sheen of flowy faux-leather pants in the most ideal mushroom-brown color. Put on a pair of white sneakers and a toffee-colored structured tote and you have office wear rainy that is comfortable and yet still clean.

This is where women with sneakers really shine. Sneakers do not need to take a look too casual, it is all about proportions and clean lines. The trench makes the entire thing earthy and the colors are warm, fall and office friendly. Curvy women and plus size ladies: don’t sleep on wide-leg faux leather. It falls like a dream and it does not stick where it is not supposed to.

I have had some form of this on many a rainy Monday and it never fails to snap me out of a rut. Extra credit when you add a warm scarf or trade the knit top with a thick funnel neck sweater when the temperatures continue to fall into October.

Could it use a little pop of color? Maybe. Some plum lipstick or oxblood tote would make it very cozy.

Modern Minimalist with a Twist

Navy and white in the fall is so refreshing, it is not a fall color like camel or grey, but it is grounded. This is a sharp navy shirt with dramatic cuffs and it is tucked in to tailored cream trousers. The tightened belt in tan creates a contrast of softness, and a smooth shoulder bag balances everything. This is the height of office style chic and ideal to wear on days when women need to be there and be shiny.

The thing that I love about this appearance is that it is quiet yet assertive. No loud pattern, no over done accessory, just shape, proportion and color speaking. The pants are slightly flared and this lengthens the leg which is why this is so flattering on a midsize body or over 40 woman who does not want anything clinging.

The so-called quiet luxury wave has been discussed by style experts of Who What Wear, and this outfit is exactly on point. No logos, just luxurious simplicity.

Want to remix this later in the season? Put a cropped wool coat over the top, or a fine-knit turtleneck instead of a top. So many ways to stretch the core idea.

Pinstripe Poise: Downtown Meets Office

A tailored burgundy top with long sleeves is paired with structured pinstripe trousers and the result is a look that is powerful yet not too buttoned up. The top is smooth yet elastic and fits the shape in a very comfortable manner. The trousers are dramatic and sharp with a high waist and broad leg. And the narrow belt? A tiny power move. This combination is soft and customized in a manner that is actually addictive.

The best thing about such a dark long-sleeve top is that it can be worn to work and then to wine. Paired with jeans and heels, you’re ready for dinner. Wearing these pinstripes, you are going around the office in silent authority. This style is also amazing on women plus size- particularly when you wear high-rise pants with vertical stripes as they make everything longer.

I had a pitch presentation last fall in a similar combo and I have never felt more composed. It has that art-gallery-owner-in-SoHo quality—edgy, thoughtful, but not overdone.

To make it less hard, replace the smooth belt with a satin tie belt, or a soft cropped cardigan in camel or ivory. It’s flexible like that.

The Revival of the Power Skirt Suit

There is nothing more executive-looking than a classic pencil skirt suit in a light check. The tailored jacket is fitted at the waist via a broad belt, which defines the figure and yet does not make it too stiff. The skirt is a midi skirt that is flattering to the below-the-knee length, and it goes well with sleek black pumps. In 2025, when I would be asked to describe what office wear professional means, it would be this: fitted, clean, powerful and unapologetically tailored.

Plaid suit is a power piece in the closet that does not wear out. And belting the blazer? A deceptive trick which tightens the waistline without any additional effort. I adore this as it fits best with women above 40 or women in leadership roles who need to appear confident yet feminine. Women work shoes such as a block heel or a slingback are a comfortable style to wear all day.

As stylist Allison Bornstein is fond of saying, structure can be soft, and this suit confirms it. The way the pieces embrace and form is quite elegant, and not dominating. This is a no-brainer when your office is on the conservative side but you need a style that looks current.

Want to modernize the formula? A colored blouse underneath the blazer, say wine or deep navy, or straight-leg trousers on days when you have more to do.

Dark Academic Layers Meet Fall Cool

This appearance is a good choice in case you want to combine mystery and modernity. There is a black wool coat that is draped confidently over high-rise and caramel-colored trousers and a black fitted turtleneck. The minimalist jewelry and oversized sunglasses are the finishing touches of the city-sleekness, and the dark color scheme makes it perfect office attire in rainy material. This is a fall essential among women 2025 who want a uniform that does not look uniform.

The black coat is so big that it can be considered a confidence shield that can transform basics in a second. In the meantime, the turtleneck under the jacket is tucked, which highlights the smooth lines and lets accessories speak. The vertical drape and structured shoulders make this silhouette a perfect fit with midsize and plus size women.

This one takes me back to something you would see on the street of Copenhagen or the SoHo area of NY City-half edgy and half reserved. Vogue editors have over and over again highlighted black-on-black colors in fall, particularly when they are lightened up with brown or tan.

If you’re curating a capsule wardrobe, these are essentials: camel pants, black turtleneck, oversized coat. Everything else can rotate in and out with ease.

Blonde Ambition in Pinstripes

Light taupe pinstripes on a fluid suit set? Effortlessly chic. The baggy blazer with loose trousers and a chain-decorated clutch adds a contemporary cool to suiting. The thing I adore here is the soft femininity with soft lines, neutral colors and gold details that speak of elegance. Women business casual dressing doesn’t need to be harsh. Sometimes, softness speaks louder.

The loose-fit pants and the long blazer style are perfect to wear by a curvy woman or those who do not want anything to stick. And yes, this can be office wear men inspiration as well, just make it to your own cuts. I adore the fact that this can be worn with a silk cami or even a cropped sweater when it gets cold.

I, personally, wore something like this to an art gallery opening last fall and felt in perfect harmony, professional, but creative. If you’re ever feeling stuck between fashion-forward and office-ready, this kind of neutral tailoring bridges the gap.

Want to swap out the sandals? Experiment with booties to be more structured or ballet flats on days when you have to walk a lot.

Bucket Bag Energy & Head-to-Toe Cream

Cream on cream is never wrong—especially in fall. A simple blouse with wide-leg pleated trousers is light and looks sophisticated, yet not too feminine. Throw in a structured tan belt and a cool bucket bag and you are balancing between curated and carefree. It is providing subtle luxury that is not too ostentatious to be down to earth.

I usually advise this combination to the no jeans women who prefer a breathable look. It’s also fantastic for midsize and women plus size, because the fabric flows rather than grips, and the belt provides balance to the proportions.

Recently, fashion writer Kristen Nichols referred to the emergence of the monochrome dressing as the next wave of uniform elegance and she was right. This look fits that vision perfectly. No fuss, just flow.

To complete it? I would like a bright lip or a tortoiseshell hair clip. Something that is a little bit hard to counteract the softness.

Tonal Tan: Easy Does It

Am I the only one who thinks that there is something decadent about an absolutely right tan-on-tan outfit? This one checks every box. A blazer made of a soft material and a blouse of a satin-like material with high-waisted pleated trousers, a belt at the waist of the same material. It is completed with the polish of the structured handbag and fine gold jewelry. This is office wear classy without trying to be.

This outfit can be used in a variety of age groups, particularly on women over 40 years who do not want to look too classic. The material is used against each other: matte and shine, structure and softness. And it takes great pictures, in case you are stealing a rooftop latte in golden hour.

Honest to god, I wore something that looked a bit like that to a conference keynote and people approached me after the talk just to inquire about the ensemble. It gives you the impression of being together, when you are secretly freaking out.

When it is colder wear a chunky knit scarf or when it is warm replace the blouse with a light turtleneck. And when you are going after comfortable fashion, loafers would fit right in here.

Chanel Vibes with a Playful Twist

When you feel like telling the world that you are a Parisian heiress, this tweed co-ord will do that. The tailored cropped jacket with fancy buttons goes perfectly well with a matching mini skirt. It is preppy, posh and reminds of something that Blair Waldorf would wear on a cool fall Friday. The camel mini bag makes the outfit warmer and brings the outfit to the ground, so it remains suitable in transitional seasons.

Is it the most classic office wear professional? No. However, it is women friendly on business casual in places of work that are a little bit liberal or in creative jobs. This kind of matching set makes outfit planning foolproof. All you have to do is to add ballet flats or heeled booties, and you are ready.

This appearance seems like a love note to the vintage-luxe resurgence we have experienced since late 2024 to me. If you’re petite, this silhouette is especially flattering—short hemlines lengthen the legs, while the boxy jacket balances proportions.

To make this work for chillier mornings? All you have to do is to wear a long camel coat or wear tights and knee boots. This can simply become your office wear rainy rotation.

Monochrome Drama with a Pop of Red

It is one of those looks that will make you stand still. The voluminous sleeves and off the shoulder ivory blouse are a clean definition of drama. The silhouette with a biomorphic shape is balanced by high waist and wide-leg black pants, so it is wearable. The micro red handbag? A genius styling trick- it pumps up the black and white and spices it up a bit.

I adore this on curvy ladies and plus size as well. The shoulders are shown perfectly in the neckline and the trousers provide room and freedom. You can tone this down with women sneakers or you can take it up a notch with women work shoes such as pointed pumps.

This year Harper Bazaar Fall Style Preview highlighted overdone necklines and waist-centric silhouettes and this one hits both of them. It’s a confident, cocktail-hour-meets-boardroom energy.

Want to make it even more wearable? When going to work, add a blazer or a structured vest on top of the blouse.

Coffee-Break Crispness

There’s a certain magic in the simplest pieces. A clean white button down, pleated dark trousers, and a tan belt–old fashioned ingredients, but prepared in a perfect way. A chunky knit sweater thrown over the shoulders automatically makes the look fall into the business casual outfits category. Add a wine-toned clutch for contrast, and you’re ready for your most polished coffee meeting yet.

This style is just the right spot of women who are above 40 or anyone who wishes to embrace the subtle glam. It is particularly flattering to midsize figures who desire to have shape without clinging. And, to be frank, I believe that every wardrobe should have a pair of chocolate trousers, they are quite versatile and give an impression of richness.

A stylist once said to me, when in doubt go back to your classics. And that advice has never let me down. This ensemble shows that you do not have to be trendy to make an impression, you only have to have a good fit and good fabric.

If I had to tweak one thing? Perhaps a jeans of dark wash as an insert bottom to the casual Fridays.

Fall Color Blocking Done Right

Why should fall business casual attires be beige or black? This outfit puts rust-orange plaid pants in the center stage- accompanied with a cream blouse and a dusty taupe coat. The leopard-print flats are playful and totally unexpected. It is not too cheery, and it is not too much, just enough spice to make it interesting on a grey Monday.

This is a go-to look for women with sneakers (just swap the flats), or for anyone who wants to branch out from neutrals without diving into bright territory. The plaid is down to earth, the coat is relaxing and it all is connected by the earthy colors.

I have been seeing variations of this appearance everywhere on Pinterest recently, and it is so very European student studying art history, which I love. I would definitely suggest this to curvy ladies or medium size figures that would look good with elongated vertical lines such as windowpane checks.

Pro tip? Wear a cable knit sweater instead of the blouse when it gets cold and really cold. Or a turtleneck for full cozy-chic.

Quiet Power in Deep Neutrals

Chocolate brown is so down to earth in the colder seasons. This ensemble uses a long blazer on top of black turtleneck and black pants. Patent leather pumps and leather gloves add the extra polish, as though you are a CEO who also has the best espresso machine at home.

It is a flattering look that women in no jeans can only dream of in an office wear environment where minimalism is the buzzword. The large fit of the coat is not overpowering due to the fitted pants and this combination is especially good on plus size and midsize bodies who do not desire everything to be tightened.

I refer to this as my big meeting energy ensemble. It doesn’t shout, but it absolutely owns the room. This is a great staple to reproduce in case you work in finance, law, or any place that is formal.

To change it up? Put on a bright lip or a textured bag to add some softness to the rigid form.

When Caramel Meets Power: The Luxe Take on Warm Tones

The combination of structured and slouchy is something that automatically makes me feel like I have my life together, even when I am simply trying to juggle three lattes and a Zoom call. This outfit is a variation of the old office attire professional formula but with high-end fabrics. The custom-made camel blazer lends that clean finish we all desire once the weather turns cool and the high-waisted leather trousers in deep burnt toffee are practically screaming fall icon. The white shirt is simple yet crisp, and the overall outfit is not messy, which is what I want to achieve with my fall business casual style.

The magic of this outfit is its versatility. All of them can be worn individually: the blazer with dark denim on women jeans days, the leather trousers with a turtleneck on women wearing booties, even the white shirt with a printed midi skirt. Specifically, these pants are a good choice to wear by a curvy woman or a midsize body since the wide leg and pleats make the clothes look beautiful in the way they drape and move. Plus, leather (especially in warm shades) is having a serious moment for 2025.

In my case, such an appearance reminds me of power lunch in Milan, even when I am going to a meeting with a client. As Tan France, a style icon and wardrobe whisperer once stated, a good blazer will take you anywhere. And this look is the evidence of it- office, dinner or just walking into the room like it was yours.

What I might switch out here depending on mood? Perhaps you can add a scarf with some pattern that is showing under the blazer or change the white blouse to a soft ivory turtleneck when the air is crisp. I would also not mind including a pair of shiny women work shoes such as block-heeled loafers to counter the softness of the leather trousers.

The Street-Smart Way to Wear Fall Layers

Alright, this is a layering tutorial on colder days. The fitted blazer in a dark burgundy is both comfortable and authoritative, particularly with those cinnamon-colored trousers which scream autumn chic. I love that the monochromatic base (maroon turtleneck tucked into warm brown pants) grounds the look—it feels pulled together without being try-hard. This is a yes to women over 40, women plus size, or just to be honest, any of us who want to get office wear right and still feel like ourselves.

These trousers look like they were made to flatter. The pleated front gives it some shape and allows some movement which is a massive plus on days when you want to be comfortable in the office. It is a good compromise, you can wear it when you are a fan of women no jeans look but do not want to be too dressed up, it is structured but not stiff. And I am not even going to start on the animal print heels at the bottom- just the right amount of bold.

I had something that was eerily similar to that during NYC Fashion Week last fall, and that was the only outfit that strangers approached to tell me they liked it. When an office outfit is mixed with street smart casualness, it hits home. Stylist Micaela Erlanger stated that, color blocking within the same family of hues is an eternal method of sophistication.

If I were to change one thing? Perhaps a crossbody that has a surprising color such as hunter green or navy. You see, just to mix up things in the most stylish manner.

Satin & Strength: Mixing Softness with Authority

This is a quiet luxury that does not scream, but just quietly takes over the room. The satin bronze blouse, which is tucked into wine-colored trousers, is rich, as in drinking espresso in an old bookstore before a power meeting. It is very much I know what I am doing but I am not here to boast. This ensemble is my go-to on a fall day when I want something that is easy but undoubtedly high-end.

The belt ties it all up without making it bulky and the clutch in emerald green? Total conversation starter. This combination is flattering to women with curves, midsize figures, and literally anyone who wants to have elegant silhouettes. No denim is required here the softness of the satin does all the talking and the straight leg trousers make the outfit fall appropriate but not too formal.

I think back to a podcast I heard with Jenna Lyons (formerly of J.Crew), where she said, “A silky shirt tucked into a great trouser will always beat a trendy outfit.” She wasn’t wrong. This is evidence that even the simplest of things when done correctly do not appear to be simple.

I would suggest to counter this appearance by introducing women work shoes that are pointed or smooth loafers. It does not take away the luxury of the top half, but keeps the whole thing grounded.

Monochrome Power Dressing, But Make It Fall

Cool authority in all-wine suit- it is assertive, trendy and totally fall-friendly. The best thing is that this is not a typical suit. The military inspired jacket with gold buttons is cropped to provide a modern structure, and the wide-leg trousers make the look soft enough. It reads very office wear professional, with a twist.

This is one of those sets that I would suggest to wear on those days when you want to feel invincible. Be it a wardrobe of women over 40, plus size women or even men in the office who want to make this their own, the rule is the same, well-fitted tailoring in rich colours makes you look instantly polished. And the black top-handle bag? Classic. It is providing retro style yet it is still modern to women of 2025.

I have used similar structured suits in speaking engagements or presentations and I can tell you that the confidence is in the seams. According to fashion psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell, it is common to say that structured clothes can help a person become assertive without realizing it. I can vouch for that.

This appearance can be easily transformed into office attire on rainy days with a trench coat on top of it and perhaps an umbrella of burgundy to keep the black and white moment alive.

Sleek Neutrals That Whisper Elegance

This is the one that is going to be of interest to us who love our neutrals but want to look interesting. The champagne blouse in a taupe silk midi skirt is spot on. It is fluid, soft and walks that thin line between minimalism and sensuality. It is so cozy to put on fabrics that flow with you and not against you, especially when the fall arrives and the weather is moody.

Such an outfit is ideal on the days when women have no jeans and still want to feel dressed up. The silk skirt gives it that touch of being dressed up, but the long-sleeved blouse keeps it down to earth and suitable to wear to the office. I adore the fact that this silhouette is so flattering to midsize and curvy women, it does not cling but floats.

I had a look similar to this to a fall dinner party in Soho, and someone told me I looked like an editorial in motion. A bit much? Maybe. But I wasn’t mad about it. Recently, Refinery29 listed satin skirts as one of the best items to add to transitional fall wardrobes, and it is obvious that they were right.

You can easily make this look work with women in sneakers in case you want that comfy-chic contrast. Or add on booties and a trench to make it a bit crisper with layers.

Polished Layers That Mean Business

I am a sucker of a smooth silhouette and this look gives me just that, but with a twist of modernity. It is a classic sky-blue button-down over a black turtleneck, which is editorial and accessible at the same time. The leather pencil skirt is so sharp that it is balanced with the daintiness of the gold-tipped heels. This is one of those women business casual outfits that does not have to speak but it does not have to raise its voice as well.

Such a layering is particularly awesome when it comes to office wear on rainy days when you need to add some warmth without bulk. I adore the fact that every single piece can be worn separately, this leather skirt is a success with knitwear, and the shirt can be worn with women jeans or under sleeveless dresses. It’s streamlined but gives room to play, especially for women over 40 who want structure with flair.

There is something about this appearance that makes me think old-school film noir with a power walk on the Upper East Side. It’s classy without feeling rigid. Kate Young, a fashion stylist once said that a strong silhouette does not require much extras and this is what proves it.

To switch it up? In the mood to be even more tactile and seasonal, replace the black leather with a wool midi or pleated skirt. And yes, add a trench. Always a trench in fall.

The Boss Skirt You Didn’t Know You Needed

Let’s talk about unapologetic style. It is an all-in statement that this red leather maxi skirt makes. In combination with a white button-down and a cherry-red tie? I mean, that is how you can dress like the CEO of your own life. It has strength in pieces such as this that nevertheless make you feel like wearing them. The appearance is screaming women business casual, but it is not safe by any means.

This is a bold choice for women with booties or classic black stilettos, and it’s flattering across sizes—especially for curvy women. Maxi silhouette with leather provides you with structure and length but does not cling and I personally adore that. Also, women no jeans lovers? This one’s for you. You’re not sacrificing cool for comfort here.

I have attempted something similar to a gallery opening and the confidence that it gave me was almost intoxicating. Sometimes, it’s less about comfort and more about the message you’re sending. And this ensemble says: I do not wait to be given the go ahead, I already arrive in control.

If I had to add anything? An exaggerated shoulder trench coat or a slate gray wool double-breasted coat. Instant drama. Instant polish.

Tailored Cool Meets Weekend Ease

Had I told you five years back that the sneakers-wearing women would take over the professional discourse of office wear, you would have given me a side-eye. But now? This suit-and-sneaker combo is the fall reset button. The gray on gray is kept soft and neutral yet still structured and the loose tailoring is perfect on midsize and plus size bodies. It’s fall, but it’s chill.

I am in love with the casual t-shirt that is underneath this oversized blazer, it is one of my personal favorites. These are the kind of trousers that can go between work and brunch mode without any problems, and we all need more versatile items in our lives. This ensemble is an absolute fit to fall business casual ensembles which are as much about comfort as they are about cool.

The white sneakers are the true MVP here. They say, yes, I am here to work, but I am not going to sacrifice the comfort. As younger women rebel against the overly strict office culture, the Vogue fall 2025 trend radar predicts the even greater focus on the trend of tailored sneakers.

What would I do to style this a bit more formal? Exchanging the tee against a fitted turtleneck and a chain-strap bag will help bring out the polish.

Low-Key Luxe That Feels Like Autumn Sundays

Now this is what I call quiet power dressing. A clean ivory knit polo and high-waisted tan trousers- elegant, simple and surprisingly sophisticated. This outfit is brunch-on-a-patio vibes, but it can be interpreted as office attire chic as well. It’s relaxed but not lazy, polished but not stiff. And that caramel loafer? Chefs kiss. Perfect women work shoes that will not kill your feet at 3 PM.

Everything about this says versatility. Wide enough to be breezy and fitted enough to be deliberate, these pants are flattering on curvy women and a dream come true to those who want to wear around comfortable staples. Also: polo tops are very much in fashion at the moment, particularly the ones with discreet contrast details such as this one.

I own a pair of loafers that are similar and I have worn them to death, they are the best to wear on women business casual days and on the way to run an errand. And when you are not into jeans every day, this combination provides you with the same earthy feel.

In case you were going to add a layer here, I would go with a cropped suede jacket in olive or rust. Add sunnies, and you’re fall gold.

Chic in Cream: Monochrome with an Edge

Office wear does not have to be stuffy and dull. This sleeveless matching set is creamy and has something minimal but extremely commanding. It is that fine line between traditional and trendy, and it delivers us with the contemporary Parisian feel with a touch of retro glam. I can observe this on women over 40 who would like to remain up-to-date without being trend-chasers, and, what is more, on anyone who would like to feel like a style editor on her day off.

The wide-leg trousers are everything. Fluid, flattering, and seasonless. The combination of a black sandal and matching clutch makes the entire outfit down to earth and the piping on the top is a perfect amount of contrast to make this outfit exciting. It’s an ideal pick for women no jeans, especially if you’re looking for comfy but elevated workwear.

This makes me think of what Meghan Markle would wear, simple, fashionable, and powerful. A black blazer would work wonders layered over this, and you could totally dress it down with sneakers or up with heels, depending on the meeting (or mood).

And here’s a little secret: this kind of monochrome set makes getting dressed at 7AM shockingly easy. Just add lipstick and go.
