Corporate dressing used to mean playing it safe – navy suits, sensible heels, not a hint of personality in sight.
Thank goodness those days are over.
Today’s corporate woman knows she can mean business without sacrificing her style. Whether it’s a wide-leg trouser moment, a sharp-shouldered blazer or a blouse with just the right amount of silk shine, dressing for the office should feel like a power move.
I once signed a six-figure contract wearing a camel coat and patent loafers I scored in Paris. Coincidence? I think not.
These chic casual corporate outfits are made for confident women who want their wardrobes to work just as hard as they do.
