Retail Therapy: Fall Work Essentials

Luckily for us, modern office life doesn't mean a boring suit. Try these flattering finds for a work wardrobe that's corporate chic (and looks good on your shape!).



If You Want to Hide Your Upper Arms…
Try a silky blouse with wide arms. The style's in right now and provides a chic alternative to button-downs. Look for bracelet sleeves (showing about two inches of skin) for a proportion that draws attention toward the thinnest part of your arm (your wrist!).


If You're Busty…
Stock your closet with open, shawl-front cardigans and blazers. The formal, work-ready shape smartens up any dress or blouse. Without restrictive buttons, you won't feel squeezed in anywhere, either.


If You Want to Enhance Your Bust…
Pick tie-front blouses over button-ups. The extra fabric will add some volume to a tiny chest, and the loose cut means you won't have to worry about filling anything out. Fake another cup-size by choosing busy printed fabrics over solid colors.


If You're Slender…
Create some curves via the magic touch of a well-cut blazer! A standard black jacket is anything but when given a nipped-in waist, strong shoulders, and a longer hemline in front. Throw a pick like this on over anything and get ready for a little 9-to-5 va-va-voom.


If You Want to Cover Your Thighs…
Look for an slightly flared, A-line dress. The fuller shape is fashionably retro, and the fit won't cling to (and emphasize) your curves like a pencil skirt would. The gentle pleats and waist-bow on this pick will also draw attention toward your center—and away from your hips.


If You're Short…
Look for a hemline that hits right under your knee. The cut is universally flattering and one of our favorite fall fashion silhouettes. More lady-like than a thigh-grazer, it will help stretch out tiny frames without swallowing them up like a maxi does.


If You Want to Mask Your Tummy…
Make sure you find a style with a defined waist to avoid making your midsection look larger than it really is. In slimming black for extra slenderizing powers, this stylish option comes with a skinny belt so styling is a no-brainer. A high-neck and keyhole slit also help to draw attention toward your face, not your tummy.
