Frugal Friday’s Workwear Report: Corset Sweater

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

I’m seeing a lot of these wide, square-neck tops right now, and I’m absolutely loving the slightly retro vibe from them. This slightly cropped sweater from Banana Republic Factory would look fabulous tucked into some wide-leg trousers for an elegant business casual look.

The great part about necklines like this is that I get to wear some of my shorter pendant necklaces, which tend to get neglected as I’m bundling up during the winter months.

The sweater is $50 at Banana Republic Factory and comes in sizes XXS-XXL. It also comes in three other colors.
