9 to 5 Workwear: Top Online Workwear Retailers

Did you know that a lot of your favorite contemporary brands have recently begun to offer workwear sections online?

Ann Taylor Tropical Wool One Button Jacket

I love this! Now us working women have a much wider range of fashionable options for the office.  I've listed my favorites below - broken down into categories.  Something to keep in mind when shopping online is the height of the individual modeling the clothes. For example, in some photos in this post, hemlines may appear short because most models are 5"10 - 5"11. If you're going to make an online purchase, always remember to check out the "size and fit" section of the item so that you can see how tall the model is.  Click the link below to see what brands made my list of the Top Online Workwear Retailers. 

Design Element: Peplum

This feminine & extra dainty design element adds a lady-like flair to any outfit. 

Below are my peplum picks:

1. Dorothy Perkins Gathered Peplum dress under $60 and what a gorgeous color!
2. French Connection Winter Love Strapless Dress. 
3. Stella McCartney Stretch Jersey Peplum Dress  (a more affordable version by Ellen Tracy can be found here, on sale now for less than $100).
4. ModCloth Irresistible Enchantress Dress; very Mad Men.
5. Anthropologie Bird of Paradise Skirt; Styling ideas are endless with this one.
6. Alice & Olivia Satin Twill & Jersey One Shoulder Dress. On sale on Net-A-Porter right now. I had to include an Alice & Olivia dress on this post; they make so many peplum dresses!
7. ModCloth Pep-lum Tank Dress (You know I had to include my dose of green in here). There's a mint colored skirt from ASOS here that is gorgeous shade of minty green!)
8.Wyatt Blue Floral Print Peplum Cami is still available on Bluefly and now it's on sale. I own this and featured it in this post. I really like this cami, it's very versatile.
