Blouses, dresses [1], and skirts are some of our favorite items to wear to work year-round. When cooler Fall weather hits, we swiftly add sweaters to the mix, too. As the official first day of Autumn is just one week away, we're getting ahead of the season and stocking up on both stylish and affordable pieces we can wear to the office all season long. Particularly, under-$51 tops, dresses, skirts, and sweaters from the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's [2].
Whether your go-to work outfits revolve around tailored separates, sleek dresses, or feminine skirts, there's always room to add a few new pieces to the mix. This season, pastel sweaters, longer skirts, and puffy sleeves are some of the on-trend options in the new September collection [3] that we're most excited about because they A) add a certain freshness to our fail-safe blazers, pants, and suits without feeling overly bold or splashy, and B) are so affordable that it's reasonable to add one, two, or three new items to cart.
And while we're excited to add new colors, fun prints, and fresh silhouettes to our workwear lineup, we're also keen to scoop up a few easy basics for layering, like this supersoft and versatile mock-neck top [4] that's available in black, gray, red, and two different stripes.
Ahead, shop 40 work-appropriate blouses, dresses, skirts, and sweaters from the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's [5], all for $51 or less. Then, for fresh outfit inspiration, we've assembled a guide on more affordable Fall trends [6] you can try at the office all season long.
