Is it just me, or is winter fashion starting to feel repetitive, especially in the workwear department? I've been wearing the same outfit formula to the office for what feels like an eternity, and I'm ready to switch things up. Of course, Aritzia is the first retailer that comes to mind for chic work finds.
From elevated basics to standout jackets, Aritzia has a way of making corporate-friendly fashion feel interesting. I could style something as simple as trousers and a white T-shirt, and it would still ooze a cool, It-girl vibe. That's why I put together an entire workwear wardrobe, complete with winter must-haves like sweaters and easy layers, and Aritzia's Pre-Spring 2026 collection, with under-$200 finds.
Ahead, dive into my curated Aritzia workwear edit, which won't break your budget. With the polished finds below, you can mix and match for a thousand different office outfits—the styling possibilities are nearly endless.
