Last week, on one particular day, the entireMamamiaoffice was wearing a suit. Ok, noteveryone,but it was pretty damn close. Did someone forget to send me the memo?

The power suit is officially having a moment, with the matching blazer and pant combination fast becoming a staple in our work and party wardrobes.

It's one of the easiest ways to look pulled together without really having to think about it - plus, the two pieces are interchangable, giving you a variety of outfit options you can chop and change with other items in your closet.

Here's how theMamamiateam wore their suits:

Convinced you need one too? Here are the best on-trend suits to shop right now.

The best affordable suits.

Blazers and pants don't have to be expensive. Here are three we're loving from brands that will allow you to jump on the trend without spending a bomb.

Target Preview Linen Blend Relaxed Blazer, $70, and Preview Linen Blend Wide Leg Pants, $60.

Atmos&Here Fern Oversized Blazer, $119.99, and Fern Pants, $79.99.

Cotton On Oversized Blazer, $89.99, and Eden Wide Leg Pants, $69.99.

The best investment suits.

On the flip side, a blazer and a good quality pair of pants are some of the best investment pieces to own, because if you choose well, they will both last you years. These are some of our favourites from brands that deliver on quality and longevity.

Commonry Common Standard Stretch Blazer, $349.95, and The Stretch Crepe Draped Trouser, $199.95.

Seed Ramie Cotton Longline Blazer, $189.95, and Textured Wide Leg Button Pant, $129.95.

Cos Regular-Fit Double-Breasted Blazer, $250, and Straight Leg Wool Pants, $175.

The best neutral suits.

If you want to dip your toes into the suit trend, consider starting with some neutrals - black, beige, brown, khaki, etc.

You'll get the most wear out of these colours too, pairing the blazer and pants with other items you own.

French Connection Boyfriend Twill Blazer, $179.95, and Tailored Twill Wide Leg Pant, $139.95.

Raef Henley Blazer, $199, and Henley Trousers, $189.

Showpo Jaxmine Storm Flap Blazer, $99.95, and Jaxine Tailored Wide Leg Trousers, $79.95.

The best coloured suits.

Go bright or go home - that's our motto for summer party dressing.

A bright suit is a great way to inject more colour into your wardrobe. Our parenting writer Laura Jackel, who is wearing the cobalt blue outfit above, loves wearing her blazer and pants separately, so she's getting lots of mileage from the set.

Atmos&Here Calla Jacket, $119.99, and Calla Pants, $79.99.

Forever New Maeve Curve Boyfriend Blazer, $139.99, and Primrose Curve High-Waisted Pants, $99.99.

Ena Pelly Lillian Cupro Blazer, $299, and Lillian Cupro Trousers, $269.
