Explore our daily workwear recommendations featuring one essential piece of professional attire available at various price points.

In my office environment, the dress code does not always necessitate a blazer; however, the chilly weather in the Northeast during this season makes layering an essential strategy. I often find myself adding layers until my look resembles that of Joey Tribbiani, a playful nod to the need for warmth without compromising style. The key to maintaining a polished appearance is to choose versatile pieces that can easily transition from one layer to the next while still looking chic and professional.

The houndstooth blazer from Faherty stands out as a stylish choice to elevate my outfit, particularly when paired with a blouse and sweater combination. Its fabric offers a bit of stretch, allowing for comfortable layering without feeling restricted. It’s important to note that some customer reviews have highlighted that the sleeves may run a bit long, so if you are on the petite side, you might want to consider potential alterations to achieve the perfect fit.

This fashionable blazer is priced at $278 at Nordstrom and is available in a wide range of sizes, from XXS to XXL, catering to various body types and ensuring that everyone can find their perfect fit.
