You see what I mean? There are more than a few options here and with each brand giving mix and match options, you do not need to reinvent the wheel each season or occasion here! All you have to do is pick up a few new slacks or skirts as needed to keep your suiting arsenal intact!
While I included lots of gorgeous sets, I also included some beautiful separates! Don’t be afraid to mix it up! Even with your match sets… wear the blazer with a different bottom piece to transform and fully maximize your closet. Many times, we are sooo restricted to the sets, and dont stray from them but these pieces make it amazingly awesome to mix and match!
Not only that, you can then rock these pieces with other more casual items in your closet! Talk about variety!
Even though a lot of us are working from home, there are still plenty of folks that are working in an office environment and need to have a versatile closet of ready for work suit options! Plus…. you never know when you’ll need to throw on a smart suit to impress your boss, a potential client, or for that one on one meeting to close that business deal.
My advice, have at least one or two suiting options! These pieces are classics and will last for years to come! You never know what life can call for and when you need to be a bit more buttoned-up, polished, or sharp, make sure that you have this option at your fingertips!
