Which, it's so chic so we're not complaining. It's structured enough to pass for business wear and can be dressed up or down to fit any office dress code. ### Mango Pinstripe Structured Blazer - **Brand:** Mango - **Price:** $179.99 - **Category:** Splurge - **Link:** https://shop.mango.com/us/en/p/women/blazers/plus-sizes/double-breasted-pinstripe-suit-blazer/27061338/30/00?s=21&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PMAX_1WOMAN_HIGHT.ROAS_US&utm_campaignid=23631332544&utm_content=Always+on&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23636712659&gbraid=0AAAAADpcxJhc7y_sT7zB-pE-GQ5EjPoAa&gclid=CjwKCAjwxITRBhBYEiwA6mZm7W1XbEJtEyVgXUAUj4txzLbPB2lrm96Ls0KhpMNsa-K9mxmy7MvM-RoC03YQAvD_BwE Pinstripes have been everywhere since people rediscovered Peaky Blinders and fell back in love with Tommy Shelby's style. This blazer is a mix of women's '80s power dressing and a classic London feel all in one. Mango's version of Tommy Shelby's look is double-breasted, nipped at the waist and works well over trousers or jeans. Throw on a fun button-up underneath for a nice pop of color. ### Striped Boat Neck Short Sleeve Wrap Knotted Top & Mid Rise Straight Leg Trousers Set - **Brand:** Cider - **Price:** $42.90 - **Category:** Budget - **Link:** https://www.shopcider.com/product/detail?pid=115009037&style_id=2218775&sku_id=10978823¤cy=USD&local=en&country=US&utm_source=google_shopping&utm_campaign=pla-newdrop-us-2209&link_id=e2d2a16a84554a4087cc76e1a9990156&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=18657357820&gbraid=0AAAAABvq22sWEBAgIIZTTkbhuHAPIIr5q&gclid=CjwKCAjwxITRBhBYEiwA6mZm7XnhvaA_b-2nYo4VZsl_yFxQNtKcJDRvzBl-qxOEQJF1_6XykuEoRBoCUnUQAvD_BwE Matching sets aren't just for working out.

Weekend & Casual Out of office picks you'll reach for every weekend. ### Free People We The Free Good Luck Mid-Rise Jeans - **Brand:** Free People (sold via Nordstrom) - **Price:** $128.00 - **Category:** Mid - **Link:** https://www.nordstrom.com/s/we-the-free-good-luck-mid-rise-barrel-leg-jeans/7376634?srsltid=AfmBOopgFifAesuaIB5IPgtI2aUuZhGmcpjCGQyyF34VySllA6kLod7N Free People's Good Luck jeans are the perfect street style jean that you've been seeing all over your feed right now.

The frayed hem and relaxed cut give off the perfect "I just threw this on" energy that everyone has been trying to achieve. ### Weekday rib knit square neck tank top - **Brand:** ASOS - **Price:** $17.50 - **Category:** Budget - **Link:** https://www.asos.com/us/weekday/weekday-ribbed-square-neck-tank-top-in-burgundy/prd/210487906?_gl=1*zh1ui9*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&gclid=CjwKCAjwxITRBhBYEiwA6mZm7QnxhyIztneyAj0_MRKnWMPtDi_aKdRDLO-3YaRW3vlRa3PscuTftRoC2OMQAvD_BwE&gbraid=0AAAAADqFjODGUrvoflQHlhVeturgY-7wq Every capsule wardrobe on TikTok recommends having at least one solid square neck tank in your rotation.

The Analise has a pleated bustier top that brings a gorgeous silhouette and a drop-waist illusion everyone has been obsessed with. ### Energia Sequin Mini Dress - **Brand:** Camila Coelho (sold via Revolve) - **Price:** $198.00 - **Category:** Mid - **Link:** https://www.revolve.com/camila-coelho-energia-sequin-mini-dress-in-island-green/dp/COEL-WD453/?d=Womens&page=1&lc=4&vn=true Sequins never really go out of style in our humble opinion. Sometimes they just take breaks from popularity… but with the rise of Zara Larsson and Y2K pop glamour, they're back and better than ever. This mini dress brings them back in a fun way with the island green color. ### Ivy Dress - **Brand:** Amanda Uprichard (sold via Revolve) - **Price:** $252.00 - **Category:** Splurge - **Link:** https://www.revolve.com/amanda-uprichard-ivy-dress-in-blue/dp/AMAN-WD2173/?d=Womens§ionURL=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&srcType=dp_recs_expanded The Ivy dress brings a fun pop of color to an event that most people shy away from.

But if you're over 30 don't be afraid to shop here. Dresses like Bella Luna are perfect for all ages. It's one-shoulder, the mesh overlay is classy but the dress is short enough to be a great choice for a night out without feeling like you're exposing everything. ## SECTION 04.

With the (unexpected) rise in popularity of Gauchos, these are the perfect pants that are comfy and on-trend enough without reliving an early 2000s fashion nightmare. ### Lululemon Scuba Oversized Half-Zip Hoodie - **Brand:** Lululemon - **Price:** $128.00 - **Category:** Mid - **Link:** https://shop.lululemon.com/p/womens-outerwear/Scuba-Oversized-12-Zip-Hoodie/_/prod9960807 I'm sure you've been hearing the word Scuba all over the internet lately, but this Scuba came before the silly trend.
