MULITTASKING. Angela McCormick knows all about it. Besides being mom to Thomas, 12, Jessica, 14, and Brittney, 16 (not shown), the 39-year-old works as a manager, so finding clothes that work mom hours is key. “A suit that you can wear for business, as well as with jeans on the weekend, just makes sense,” she says.
That’s why she’s loving this super-femme jacket and skirt. The pencil skirt is a hot fall-winter silhouette and is incredibly flattering with heels. And the short-sleeve jacket
is warm enough for now, and will layer nicely under a coat when the mercury drops.
Not into skirts? Pair the jacket with tapered black pants instead. Pick up some sleeveless shells, camis and blouses and you’re set. Who said back-to-school shopping was just for kids?

ANGELA: Jacket, $235, Skirt, $135, Shell, $50, RK.

JESSICA: Denim Skirt, $25, Bluenotes. Leggings, $17, Old Navy.
