The Desk Day That Starts With a Meeting at Nine
Some mornings are just a desk, a calendar and a few meetings, and the outfit should not take up more room than that. A mock neck sweater, a pair of trousers and block heels cover it with three pieces that mix easily. It is for a small closet and a careful budget.

That cold Monday morning in a mock turtleneck sweater, Apricot
The apricot mock neck is the soft top of the set, a long sleeve pullover knit. The blend is 6% wool, 30% acrylic, 25% nylon and 39% polyester, so it is mostly synthetic with a little wool. It arrives vacuum sealed, so slight wrinkles may show after opening.

The trousers for a long Tuesday that starts at eight
The trousers are the anchor of the set, with a regular fit, a mid rise and a waistband made not to bind. The fabric is 49% cotton, 47% polyester and 4% spandex, and the feel can vary by color. The rise is 9.75 inches and the inseam comes in 30, 32 or 34, measured on a size 10 medium.

The brown heels for a morning that turns into a night out
The shoe finishes the look in chocolate brown, with a pointed closed toe and an adjustable slingback strap. The block heel is 2.75 inches (7cm), with a padded insole and a rubber sole. Whether that height suits a full desk day is a matter of your own feet and taste.
