When I worked at New York & Co. in the early part of this decade, the fashion was really lacking. The clothes were one step above your typical mom wear with work appropriate stuff mixed in. Plus, my store didn’t carry size XS or 2, so I rarely bought anything. All that has changed, now, as the retailer tries to get more with the times—the style times that is. And I’m having a difficult time not buying pretty much everything on the site. Here are 20 of my favorite, totally affordable items from New York & Co.

We just won a BIG case at work and if I get the bonus check I’m suspecting I will, let’s just say I’ll be making a visit to NY & Co. to find some new office attire! and after losing weight from this damn flu, I’ll be extra ready to shop haha!

I buy pretty much all of my work clothes and suits from here. I used to wear their jeans also. I have to be prepared to do some serious damage when I go in there. Although it is reasonably affordable and they have great sales, I can’t help myself from wanting to buy almost everything I see in there!

I have shopped there for the past 4 years and can say that 90% of my work attire is New York & Co. I absolutely love this store - even for some casual wear. Coupons, sales, City Cash….oh the joys!

I love New York & Co, I don’t get why more people don’t shop there. The tops seems cut extra generously around the boobs, too.
@mayorbubbles - they always have crazy good sales. I never buy ANYTHING full-price there. Sign up for their coupons, and they’ll email them to you or send them in the mail and the coupons will knock about 30% off the price. Then wait until just a couple weeks after a new style comes out and it will inevitably be part of a “buy 1 get 1 half off” sale or something like that, and you can use the coupons with those sales most of the time (I think the coupons say you can’t, but no one has ever rejected me when I tried!)
