Your Personal Shopper Loves… Aleksandra Shares Her Office-To-Off-Duty Must-Haves
Get to know the top picks and styling tips of NET-A-PORTER’s Personal Shoppers, as they reveal their seasonal must-haves and how to wear them. Here, Aleksandra, from our Europe team, shares her favorite pieces to take you effortlessly from day to night, work to the weekend
Elevated off-duty
“I love elegant, minimal designs, and The Row is a master of relaxed tailoring. The brand’s simple and versatile styles take you effortlessly from day to night, season to season. Another go-to label for looking chic on the weekends is Gabriela Hearst. The brand uses the highest-quality premium fabrics with impeccable tailoring and a commitment to consciously crafted pieces. The unique designs make you look and feel great, without being overdressed for an occasion. And when I want to add a twist to my everyday outfits, I go for Loewe’s pieces. I love how the label combines its rich history and heritage with avant-garde, unexpected elements.”
After-dark styling
“Almost every office outfit can be dressed up with the right accessories for a night out. Alaïa’s corset belts create an hourglass figure instantly – simply cinch the belt over a white shirt, or wear it under a statement blazer. Another easy way to transition a work outfit to an evening event is to slip on an iconic pair of velvet or satin Manolo Blahnik pumps. Then, jewelry and a watch are the perfect finishing touches – try a diamond tennis bracelet by Anita Ko or Suzanne Kalan, and an elegant watch by Cartier.”
Versatile workwear
“One of my favorite brands for workwear right now is Khaite. The unique sweaters and cardigans are made from exceptional Mongolian cashmere, and I like the brand’s structured denim and leather pieces, too. A must-have item in my wardrobe for the office is a crisp white shirt, whether it’s an oversized style or a more classic fitted silhouette – and I love pieces by Alaïa. The latest designs by creative director Pieter Mulier work with nearly anything in your wardrobe, especially tailored pants, midi or maxi-length skirts. I would also recommend one of the maison’s oversized blazers. You can wear it to an important meeting or style it for the evening with a mini dress and boots. And when you’re in need of comfortable designs with luxurious quality, look to Brunello Cucinelli – every piece is an investment.”
