10 Profesh Stationery Picks That Are #Girlboss-Worthy
There’s nothing more thoughtful than a handwritten letter, especially in a professional context. Whether you’re writing a thank you note after an amazing interview for a job that seems like a stretch or sending a favorite client a thoughtful birthday message, it’s worth it (for both recent college grads and experienced boss ladies alike) to upgrade to some stationery that’s chic and sophisticated AF. This is especially true if making a good impression on a potential employer or campaigning to get a raise is part of the plan. The stationery you use for work is an extension of how you present yourself, so it should obvi be as cool, polished and elegant as you are. Read on for our favorite subtle-yet-adorable note card sets that will help you seal any deal.
1. Paper Source Abstract Painterly Stationery ($13 for 10): Folded cards featuring abstract designs are a great choice for work-related notes. They’re ideal to keep on hand in a desk drawer, since they can be used for multiple occasions, whether it’s a quick thank you or a note to a coworker.
2. Minted Fruitstripe Personalized Stationery ($50 for 25): There’s nothing like stationery adorned with your name or monogram to convince you that you’re really adulting after all. #babysteps

5. Rifle Paper Co. Midnight Garden Personalized Flat Note Cards ($68 for 25): Floral patterns on a dark background feel more serious and work-appropriate than loud and crazy ones.
