Wednesday’s TPS Report: Annie Sleeveless Top
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This is exactly the kind of t-shirt that I love to wear under suits: simple, but a little fancy.

Coffee Break: Exotic Embossed Lambskin Flat
There is a lot to love about this embossed lambskin flat. Love the green color (although it’s also available in a burgundy, and there are still green versions of two satchels, both on steep discount), and I love the slight point to the toes, the little cutout, buckle, and the fringe detail. It’s on an … Read More about Coffee Break: Exotic Embossed Lambskin Flat

Tuesday’s TPS Report: Cardigan 12 Ans
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’m not usually a fan of a high crewneck, but the tiny blue dots on this classic snap cardigan from Agnès B. is making me reconsider that.

Coffee Break: Faceted Ball Necklace
I’m liking this pale, jangly necklace from Target, of all places. While it doesn’t look like much in this picture, I loved it when I saw it a week or so ago on style blogger Jessica Quirk — and for $16, how can you go wrong? Target Faceted Ball Necklace (L-2)
The Hunt: Sheath Dresses
Sure, we all know what basics professional women are supposed to have in their closets, but if you’re buying one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the right incarnation in stores.

Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Slit Front Sheath Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. (Happy sigh) — gorgeous. Gorgeous! I love everything about this graphic sheath dress — the high split V neckline, the knife pleats and fitted bodice, and the fact that it’s lined in 100% silk. I’d skip the (mesh?!) booties and … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Slit Front Sheath Dress
Weekend Open Thread
Something on your mind? Chat about it here. Zappos lists these nice wedge heels under their “bestsellers” section, and I must say, they look pretty great for casual summer weekends — love the strappy look, the 1.25″ platform (making the heel height only 1.75″), and the fact that the shoes feature N5 comfort. As always, … Read More about Weekend Open Thread

Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Tile Foulard Print Faux Wrap Top
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’m always a fan of a wrap top, and I like the high neckline here and the interesting prints and colors. I’d probably stick with the black and white version myself, but this coral/orange print is really fun. It’s $44. … Read More about Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Tile Foulard Print Faux Wrap Top
