Ladies, what are your favorite brands for washable trousers? I always used to like the Gap washable trousers, but online the reviews suggest that they’re really hit or miss of late. These NYDJ stretch trousers are very highly rated, but mostly by older women — but then that is their demographic (NYDJ does stand for … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Straight Leg Trousers
Machine-Washable Work Clothes
Looking for machine-washable work clothes? Every Wednesday we include a wear-it-to-work recommendation that is machine washable -- you can see our most recent picks below. Don't miss some of our bigger articles on this topic, though, including:
Maternity Monday: Slash Neck Skater Dress with Belt
I’ve long admired this simple maternity dress from ASOS — it looks grown up and flattering, but fun and versatile. And the fact that it’s $53.06 doesn’t hurt. The black seems to be sold out right now, but it’s still available in this light blue/orange belt combo, as well as a rust orange/cobalt belt combo. … Read More about Maternity Monday: Slash Neck Skater Dress with Belt
Washable Wednesday: JNY Suiting
Jones New York has steep discounts on their entire suiting collection, including the washable wool pieces — so if you’ve been on the hunt for a washable suit or separates, today may be the day to strike. They come in regular and plus sizes, and there are pants, skirts, and blazers. Just for an example, … Read More about Washable Wednesday: JNY Suiting
Finally Friday: PrimaLoft Packable Jacket
OK, guys: I finally caved and bought a washable winter coat. And I must say: it’s SUPER warm. Like, warmer than my nice wool/cashmere coat, even though this one doesn’t cover my thighs. It’s on deep discount, it’s a bright color (I got the fuschia, pictured, and it’s a lovely, deep magenta), AND it’s packable … Read More about Finally Friday: PrimaLoft Packable Jacket
Washable Wednesday: Etsuko Dress
As I noted yesterday on Corporette: I was really excited to work with the brand MM.LaFleur, in part because they make a TON of machine-washable workwear — and it’s apparent from the shopping pages, not just the product pages. It baffles me why stores don’t adopt a “machine wash” filter, since I think there is a … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Etsuko Dress
Nursing Tuesday: Nursing Tank
I’ve been eyeing this nursing tank, and may pull the trigger, even though the end feels like it’s in sight (Harrison is almost 8 months, and the plan was to nurse him for a year). I haven’t been super happy with other nursing/shapewear tanks I’ve tried, but this one seems to be missing the issues … Read More about Nursing Tuesday: Nursing Tank
Maternity Monday: Long Sleeve Tee Shirt Dress
This simple tee shirt dress has a lot of positive reviews on the Target website — unlike a lot of their other maternity clothes, interestingly enough. (For a good time, read reviews of this dress.) I like the simplicity of this one, the price, and the fact that it’s apparently versatile enough to dress up … Read More about Maternity Monday: Long Sleeve Tee Shirt Dress
Pumping-Friendly and Washable: Long Sleeve Naive Flower Wrap Top
I know readers are big fans of faux-wrap dresses for pumping, so I set out to look for a faux-wrap top that looked pumping-friendly. These from Macy’s looked nice (and also machine washable), but of course I loved the color of this one from Chaus. The top is $49 at Amazon. Chaus Womens Long Sleeve … Read More about Pumping-Friendly and Washable: Long Sleeve Naive Flower Wrap Top
Washable Wednesday: Travel Knit Cap Sleeve Wrap Top
Chadwicks has a line of travel knits that are machine washable, packable (which I read as “wrinkle resistant”), and very affordable. There are skirts, pants, even knit blazers in the line, but my favorite is this faux wrap top with side ruching — it looks like something I’d wear the heck out of on the weekend … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Travel Knit Cap Sleeve Wrap Top
Washable Wednesday: Cap Sleeve Velvet Sheath Dress
I’m intrigued by this: a washable velvet sheath dress, with a lovely vintage vibe and pattern. It’s part of the great sale at Lands’ End today — regular priced items are 30% off, and clearance is up to 65% off — and free shipping on any order. With code BEST, this dress comes down to … Read More about Washable Wednesday: Cap Sleeve Velvet Sheath Dress
Pumping Tuesday: ‘Vibrant Paisley’ Infinity Scarf
I always think of infinity scarves as being a great addition to a breastfeeding/pumping mom’s wardrobe — you can use them for extra coverage while you’re pumping, a pattern (such as this vibrant paisley) hides milk stains and other baby stains (spit up, sticky fingers, etc.), and is an easy way to add color and … Read More about Pumping Tuesday: ‘Vibrant Paisley’ Infinity Scarf
Washable Tuesday: Belle Stretch Ponte Twist Dress
I’ve always heard great things about Dobbin dresses, but someone recently clued me in to the fact that they’re almost all machine washable — love it, and especially the twist detail on this bracelet sleeve dress. The dress comes in sizes 00-16 for $168. Dobbin Belle Stretch Ponte Twist Dress
