1. Fabulous with frills<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wearing this chic and airy work top, you\u2019ll feel ready to take on anything, whether it\u2019s chairing a meeting, giving a presentation, or rolling over at five to take a much deserved nap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Silky and polished<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Some jobs call for being just a little bit extra, even when you\u2019re all meeting on a grainy video chat. When you need polish, silk is the way to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Black
Buy now from Everlane<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We love this Everlane silk tie neck sleeveless blouse<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> for so many reasons. At a glance, you can tell whoever wears this top means business. No frills, no fuss, just getting to work to get things done. The clean lines and high neck make it uber professional no matter what your title is. And if you\u2019re feeling a bit chilly or want to be more covered up, it would pair perfectly with your favorite cardigan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Don\u2019t count out the classics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s just something about a basic button-front shirt that instantly dresses up whatever you pair it with — from your work suit<\/a> to a nice pair of jeans. Must be why it\u2019s such a classic and a must-have in every woman\u2019s wardrobe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Green,

Whether you\u2019re wearing this button down tie-front shirt<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> from Macy\u2019s with jeans, jammies, or a pencil skirt, you\u2019ll look like you own the boardroom, even if it\u2019s just a virtual one for now. You can\u2019t go wrong with classic black, but it also comes in several other shades for you fashionistas who can\u2019t resist a pop of color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Add a modern twist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you love a classic button-down, but want something with a modern twist, this blouse with contrast piping from Forever 21 will be calling your name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Blouse

It has everything we love about the classic version, but feels super fresh and somehow even more chic. The breezy woven material and draping make this top as comfy as it is stylish, which is perfect for the stuck-at-home lifestyle. We absolutely love how sophisticated the beige and black version looks, but it also comes in a navy and cream version if you prefer to go darker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Tricking the eye<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whenever you\u2019re trying to look way dressier than you are, there are two things that will never fail you: tricking the eye using patterns and neck bows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tie
Buy now from Target<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This Who What Wear high-neck blouse<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> happens to combine them both for a look that is guaranteed to fool even the most skeptical of your newly-distant co-workers. Available in two different spotty patterns, this blouse is dressed up enough to have everyone thinking you must be wearing a stylish pair of trousers and not pajama pants with kittens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
