As the political climate reaches a fever pitch, we’re glued to all the debates and political news shows. The political correspondents are some of the most-watched women in the news these days, so we started keeping tabs on what they’re wearing. What did we find? Just like their male colleagues, women are suiting up as they cover and report from the campaign trail, so following suit, we marched straight to Bloomingdale’s to check in on their best candidates in jackets and vote for our favorites. In choosing Best Dressed Political Correspondents, we cast our ballots for all of them for looking so chic. V-Necks are flattering for just about everyone, so we prefer the look of the jacket alone, or paired with a soft blouse like Diane Sawyer. We like the soft comfort of a wool or a knit boucle and a jacket that is fitted in the waist creates a beautiful, buttoned-up silhouette. A jacket adds a polished edge, conveying an air of intelligence and power. In the political correspondent role and beyond, this buttoned up look guarantees the air of a front-runner.
