Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Draped-front silk blouse
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. First, Net-a-Porter is having some lovely sales right now. This silk blouse is not among those sales — but it’s interesting because, at least according to Net-a-Porter, this pale blush pink is going to be the hot color next season. … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Draped-front silk blouse

Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Double-Layer Open Cardi
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I picked up this sweater a few weeks ago at the Gap, and I really like it — it’s lightweight, soft, and the gray-on-gray layers make it interesting but nothing crazy. I haven’t tried it with a belt, yet, but … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Double-Layer Open Cardi
Coffee Break: Beirn Tote
Maybe my memory is off, but I remember passing up the opportunity to get a Beirn bag for just over $100 — and I regret it every time I see some fashionable New Yorker carrying the bag. They’re truly lovely. The Outnet has a number at 65% off, though — this one is a blue … Read More about Coffee Break: Beirn Tote
How to Take Care of Tights and Pantyhose
Reader S wonders about how to take care of tights… I seem to be having a spell of terrible luck with tights this year – I wear a pair two or three times and then find a hole or a run. I’m willing to pay more for tights that last longer, but I’m afraid I’ll … Read More about How to Take Care of Tights and Pantyhose
Thursday’s TPS Report: Kate Fit Boiled wool lady jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. And the sales keep coming! Talbots is having its “red hanger” sale, with reductions of up to 50% online and in stores (plus free shipping of $125 or more). This gorgeous jacket caught my eye. Love the “pinched collar” and … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Kate Fit Boiled wool lady jacket
Suit of the Week
For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Sometimes, all you want … Read More about Suit of the Week

Wednesday’s TPS Report: Arbor Vines Sweater Jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This boiled wool sweater jacket caught my eye a few days ago, and it’s been on my mind since — love the fitted look, the pleats in the back, and the delicate leaf/floral applique all over it. I’d wear it … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Arbor Vines Sweater Jacket
Coffee Break: Enamel Oval Necklace
The Saks sale is now up to 40% off, with new items added — and I’m liking this simple black necklace. I think it would be a great addition to a really colorful top — even a print — and think that it’s large and distinctive enough to make it a statement necklace. Lovely. Was … Read More about Coffee Break: Enamel Oval Necklace
