How to dress like a CEO on an intern’s budget
Every power woman needs a power outfit. Just because you don’t share a CEO’s salary doesn’t mean you can’t look just as good. Invest in a few classic, well-tailored pieces and you won’t just look powerful, you’ll feel it too.
1. A Sleek Blazer
A versatile blazer can be worn with trousers or jeans, a skirt or a dress, so choosing a classic shape will keep your power wardrobe working for you for longer.
