Week 5: Fall Suit OUTFIT

DailyOutfit: Fall Suit

THE OUTFIT: SUIT + TOP + SHOES & ACCESSORIES

A suit can be integral to your wardrobe -- worn as pieces or worn together, it is a versatile, well-crafted, long-lasting staple. Especially for those who are just starting out, a suit can be the seed from which your wardrobe grows and is a worthy investment. For those who wear jeans almost everyday, a suit could seem like a frivolous item and it can be -- a day dress can fill in for those occasions where a suit is also appropriate, like a funeral or networking event. Whatever your work environment, suits are big this season and certainly deserve our attention. DailyOutfit recommends buying every piece of the suit that you can afford -- finding a match later is impossible.
