The Best Under-$100 Office Outfit Ideas

Sponsor Content Created With Who What Wear

Time and time again, one of our biggest reader requests has to do with the realm of work—specifically, what in the world to wear. We’re not surprised, though, because despite the fact that answering these types of questions is literally our job, even we have trouble thinking of what to wear to work sometimes. Add summer heat, and that difficulty doubles. One thing we’ve found that helps, however, is pre-planning outfits and saving them—whether that be on your cell phone, desktop, or Pinterest board. With that in mind, today we decided to bring you a week’s worth of work outfits to get you through the next five days at the office. And thanks to our namesake clothing and accessory line at Target, we were able to create each for under $100.

Doesn’t get much better than that, right? Scroll through to see and shop the looks now!

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
