A sweater vest is a great office option, especially with the importance of 3-piece suits this season. It’s a really dapper alternative to create that same look, in a less formal way, when worn with a sport coat. This J. McLaughlin one is beautifully made in a charcoal wool/cashmere that looks great with this blue sport coat, though it certainly works with any neutral – grey, olive, tan, black. Without a jacket, wear it with or without a tie, along with a dressier pant, khaki’s or a great pair of jeans. How’s that for versatility.

Rag & Bone - Jameson Shawl-Collar Cardigan
X
One of the great things about a shawl collar chunkier cardigan, like this one from Rag & Bone, is how it can be worn as a blazer replacement in more casual or creative work environments. For a client meeting, wear it with dark charcoal wool dress pants. If the day’s agenda is casual, wear with dark selvage jeans. Add a pattern shirt and a solid knit tie to complete the look.

BOSS Hugo Boss - Danos Virgin-Wool Sweater
X
The chevron pattern (that’s the subtle zig zag stripe) in this Hugo Boss virgin wool sweater has just the subtle interest to make it feel fresh and updated. The contemporary fit creates a smooth polished look, when worn with a solid or pattern dress shirt and a tie- perfect for any meetings. If the day is casual, a khaki color or dark grey pair of cotton pants, along with a pattern button-up shirt, make a great outfit. Any shirt pattern will work with this sweater, since the pattern created by the stitch work is so understated. Whatever you choose, this sweater is the perfect finishing touch for a really dapper look.

Billy Reid - Elton Slub Knit Sweater
X
A little stripe is a nice conservative pattern for the office. Billy Reid has taken it up a notch by adding it to a slub cotton sweater, so it has some stylish texture and is lightweight – perfect for layering over a crisp white shirt and wearing with dress grey pants to keep it work appropriate. The sporty raglan sleeve (the stitch along the shoulder) gives you the option to wear it more casually with a t-shirt and dark wash jeans, too.

J. McLaughlin - Wilson Cardigan Sweater
X
This classic fit navy lambswool cardigan from J.McLaughlin is an easy and stylishly conservative substitute for a blazer. Its two lower pockets and top breast pocket help give it that structured jacket-like appearance. Wear it like you would any sport coat – a dark grey or navy pattern pair of dress pants look really great with this solid, though a dark grey is just as effective. Dark jeans and a distressed pair of oxfords or loafers give this more of a casual feel, but both looks are equally stylish with a pattern button-up shirt and tie.

Tommy Bahama - Paradise Ridge Silk & Cotton V-Neck Sweater
X
Sometimes a comfortable, easy fitting v-neck is just the thing for a day at the office when a jacket isn’t required. Tommy Bahama’s silk and cotton version certainly delivers. The toast color we’re showing looks great with dark jeans or twill pants, and is an interesting shade of brown that punches up a basic color nicely. The purple is pretty great too, for a subtle pop of fall color. (Click through the “shop it” button to see for yourself.)
