EDITOR'S NOTE
If you struggle with getting dressed, we’ve figured out how to make it easier thanks to our annual launch of Fashion You’ll Actually Wear Week. Our editors have spent months curating the best clothing and accessories for work, play, travel, and maternity. This week, I’ll be sharing standouts from each category, so stay tuned and check out the full collection to refresh your closet.

Splurge vs. Save: Fashion Week Edition
What you can splurge vs. save on when it comes to your work wardrobe
Our editors are here to tell you exactly what’s worth it:
Splurge on:
A work bag that’ll last for years.
A blazer with a relaxed fit.
Some black stretchy trousers.
Save on:
A pair of trendy flats.
This designer-inspired statement cuff.
A sweater tee that’s an ideal bottom layer.
Universal Standard’s Polina Jeans
Use code FREEJEANS-THESKIMM to get these $85 jeans for free.
We’re obsessed with Universal Standard for their comfortable basics and range of sizes up to 40. In honor of Fashion You’ll Actually Wear Week, the brand is giving our readers a free pair of classic skinny jeans with code FREEJEANS-THESKIMM. The code is valid until September 30 while they’re in stock, so shop before they’re gone.
