I thought we’d take a look at some of our favorite recommendations for workwear accessories like shoes and bags over the past year!
Like our workwear recommendations, we recommend one accessory (or desk accessory) appropriate for the office on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. On Mondays I try to pick a budget-friendly piece, and the prices rise on Tuesday and Thursday. I generally try to include one office shoe and one bag each week, but the third item varies — we’ve done watches, wallets, scarves, hair accessories, beauty products, hair products, office accessories, coats, and more. (Wednesdays are Suit of the Week, and Fridays are picks for the weekend for the Weekend Open Thread…)
These were my favorites picks of 2021 — if you’re curious about older ones, here were my favorites from 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, and 2010.
