Finding staples for the office is so key because they’re the pieces you’ll re-wear again and again and remix with the rest of your wardrobe. I love to layer at the office, especially since they keep ours so cold.
I recently found a beautiful blazer that’s structured but made from a softer fabric and a dove gray duster/long cardigan that can be worn with skirts and pants alike, both from Nordstrom. Nordstrom has a ton of beautiful options for the office right now and many pieces are ones that transition well into weekend wear, too! Plus, they offer free shipping and free returns, always, which makes ordering a breeze.
I’ll start with the blazer — it has such fantastic texture and the color is so neutral that it truly works with most other colors in your wardrobe. I styled it with my favorite jeans as well, so you could see how it could look chic for a date night or post-work event.blazer | black AG jeans | bag | sunnies | nude heels | tassel earrings | bralette | tank (similar tank + also obsessed with this ruffle detail one) | lipgloss (I wear this daily- just $13.50!) | black pencil skirt (I also love this velvet option and this leopard one! here is a black pencil skirt under $50) | similar booties
I started carrying this bag to the office this week and it’s actually the perfect size. It fits everything from file folders to my wallet, sunglasses case a bottle of water, etc. It even comes with a matching pouch — I keep my pens and some lip balm in it!
My next find is this long duster/cardigan. I love the light gray color — it works paired with neutrals and can be an anchor piece for an outfit that features some brighter colors or bold patterns. It’s also super lightweight and soft. It comes with a belt — I chose to tie mine back here, but you could also tie it at the front for a different look!

Thank you Ashley! Love your blog + outfits as well!
I just got a big ol’ cape from Nordstrom for wearing at work. Why are offices always so cold?!?
I have a space heater at my desk. I will never understand the frigid temps. I also have a blanket. All the warm things, ha!
