Suit of the Week: express

0

For busy working women, the suit is typically the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which must be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.
If you’re trying to find a suit in a particularly bright, delighted color, do check out express — these high-waisted, pleated, cropped pants come in about 12 different colors, all with a matching blazer. (Various sizes and colors are sold out online, but if you call your local store they may be able to help you out. Light blue and mint seem to have the most colors, but there’s something there for all of them.)

Express seems to be envisioning it as a monochromatic outfit; this is one of the rare instances where I like the camisole styled with the jacket; they also seem to have crop tops in the same colors. (Know your office before exposing bra straps — and I’d guess that the default in a lot of offices would be “no crop tops.”)
The pants come in sizes 00-18, as well as long, short, and petite sizes, and the blazer comes in sizes XS-XL, regular and petite.
Psst – it’s also interesting to see that express has a new “sustainable” section!
