The Boss knows what she wants, and her workweek style effortlessly channels that CEO energy every step of the way. Combining a sophisticated edge with trend-forward details, this wardrobe is as buttoned-up at client breakfasts as it is at end-of-week happy hours with her team.
THE MONDAY SCHOOL DROP-OFF
Monday mornings always feel a little hectic. That’s why suiting up in a look that easily conquers everything from school drop-offs to afternoon board meetings is crucial. Pair a confidence-boosting midi skirt with a black tie-front blouse to let the skirt shine, and get ready to take on the week in style.
THE TUESDAY NETWORKING BREAKFAST
An early networking breakfast is easy in a sharp monochromatic coat-and-sweater combo. Take the power duo one step further with creamy-hued denim in a wide-leg crop that keeps the silhouette modern with a raw hem finish.
THE WEDNESDAY BRAINSTORM MEETING
The weekly brainstorm meeting calls for making bold moves, which is why a tie-front blouse in a retro-inspired stripe print is your next go-to staple. Keep the rest of the look streamlined in cropped navy chinos and bright heels.
THE THURSDAY CLIENT DINNER
Client dinner? No problem — especially if you’re feeling your look. A silk blouse outfitted with intricate chain link designs is cocktail-ready when layered beneath a black slip dress. A belted waist and heeled booties add the finishing touches.
THE FRIDAY TEAM HAPPY HOUR
Take the team out early for happy hour in your casual Friday ensemble. Comfortable dark wash skinny jeans add a laidback-luxe feel to an oversized plaid blazer and silky tie-front blouse. Heeled boots and bold accessories complete the look.
