Versatile, multitasking, virtuoso women make the world go-round. Our dedication to our careers, families, friends and self-care, makes us the queens of balancing. Our motto is everything is doable, no matter how difficult it may be.
Working women require much to keep our lives pushing. Most of those things are intangible like sleep, relaxation and an occasional retreat to a beach in the middle-of-nowhere. But simple gifts, like a new briefcase or blazer, can turn our Christmas lists into a way to expand our goals. We present a shopping guide for the working woman:
Wardrobe Attire
1. Working women need business suits for those power meetings with their peers and potential clients. Macy’s chic line of Le Suit blazers, skirts and pants will announce a woman’s arrival before she even extends her hand or her name.

2. Strut into the office in a pump designed to signal power. Victoria’s Secret curated a line of professional, but affordable pumps that will spark convo as soon as you walk through the front door. I adore the black-and-white pumps from Schutz Gilberta.
3. Organization is the key to success, or so we’ve been told. Compartmentalized briefcases offer chicness and professionalism. The McKlein Verona bag at Kohl’s is spacious enough to fit a laptop, books, notebooks and all of the other things needed to be productive in the office.
Office Accessories
4. You must be prepared to highlight your amazingness at all times. Kate Spade’s inexpensive business card holders are an ideal way to sell yourself.

5. Trays, pencil holders and letter openers offer an air of “I’m about my business.” The Bergdorf Goodman set is a little pricey, but the leopard-esque pattern is impossible to overlook.
6. Tablets are all the rage this season, especially among working women. They function as traveling laptops, music players, calendars, digital readers and everything-in-between. HP’s 7-inch tablet, complete with Windows 8, is included on many Santa wish lists. It is perfect for the woman on-the-go who’s in need of one device that can serve all of her needs.
