Much has been said about power suits and how indispensable these are to the corporate sister’s wardrobe. From tailored, conservative “interview” suits, to more fashion-forward, modern versions
of the power suit, these definitely constitute one of the top wardrobe investments for corporate sisters!
Yet, in the era of “leaning in” and women empowerment, there is yet a new version of the power suit that ought to be talked about more often. A more feminine, elegant version, yet just as imposing and powerful as the traditional suit. It’s what we like to call here at The Corporate Sister the “Power Dress”, otherwise known as the sheath dress.
Nothing like an elegant, tailored and well-fitted sheath dress to convey professional elegance without sacrificing femininity! And in most professional environments today, even in traditionally conservative fields such as law and banking, the sheath dress speaks for itself!
One of my gifts this Christmas is actually what I would call the perfect sheath dress. It’s from The Limited, is incredibly well cut, hits right below the knee, and comes in a range of colors. The substantial fabric is also very form -flattering, with a forgiving high waist and simple design that allows for many accessorizing options. Of course the red one is my favorite, although for work I would tone it down with a grey or black jacket or cardigan.
Priced at $79.99 on sale , this power dress is both affordable and oh so feminine! And for an extra dose of oomph, consider pairing it with this $29.99 bow skinny belt from The Limited, for an extra touch of elegance (and also a great waist-cinching ally)!
PS: The Limited is now having its semi-annual sale, with up to 70% off discounts, and for online shoppers, $30 off your $90 purchase, or $60 off your $150 purchase! Can you say deal?
