Gone are the days when patent court shoes and uninspiring skirt suits were the only women's workwear options. In 2022, with the abbreviation "WFH" in our common vernacular and a post-pandemic appreciation for lounging sets, the spectrum of office outfits is broader than ever.
As companies become more casual, the line between on- and off-duty fashion narrows. There are exceptions, of course, but offices are generally adopting more flexible approaches—and not just in relation to working hours and location. Sacrificing your personal style doesn't have to be a pre-requisite of the dress code as long as your look errs on the professional side.
It's worth choosing pieces you can see yourself styling when you're off the clock, not least because office-appropriate attire can be expensive. Think loosely tailored blazers that pair perfectly with jeans or silk-feel midi dresses you can transition from conference room to cocktail bar with a quick shoe switch.
