Nordstrom’s shoe clearance sale is underway, and we’re liking these simple open-toes by Stuart Weitzman, available in both “cognac tartaruga” (pictured) and navy patent. Like the button detail, like the patent, like the general look. The shoes were $335, now marked to $199.90 at Nordstrom (lots of sizes still left). Stuart Weitzman ‘Dabba’ Pump
N.B. Open-toe shoes will not be appropriate in every office — know your office!

I’m always a fan of Marc by Marc Jacobs bags, and this lovely satchel is no different — LOVE the print on the inside, the numerous pockets, and the size. I’m normally not a brown-purse kind of gal, but the caramel color strikes me as just right. It’s $369 (was $528) at ShopBop. Marc by Marc Jacobs Damisi Patchwork Leola Satchel

It’s time for end-of-season clearance at Naturalizer — including markdowns on these fabulous zebra-striped shoes. Love the walkable two-inch heel, the conservative buckle paired with the zebra print, and the great padding inside the shoe. It’s also available in black leather and a great “saddle tan” leather. Was $79, now $39.99. Naturalizer Lockhart
(Pssst – if you’re a fan of Naturalizer, check out the sale going on today at 6pm.com, as well — this shoe isn’t among the sale items, but lots of other fun things. The sale ends 8/6.)

Reader J writes in to suggest this fabulous bag, noting “Saw this bag while checking out Nordstrom’s anniversary sale this morning and thought I would share. I think it’s a great work bag– the red is an eye-catcher, and the black is classic.” Love! A friend of ours owns a few Brahmin bags, and we can vouch for the quality — they’ve held up really well for her. They seem to be sold out of black at the moment, but we really like the yellow — it’s a great, sunny pop of color for either spring or fall. Currently $216, it’ll be $325 after the sale.

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
Color us psyched: the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is on!! Tons of pieces from the fall collections are on sale — the items will return to their regular prices on August 2. Today, we’re liking this simple cardigan — we like the range of colors offered, the three-quarter-length sleeves, and the floral appliques on the shoulder. Normally $68, it’s priced at $44.90 during the Anniversary Sale. Caslon® ‘Flower Bouquet’ Cardigan

We always forget about Johnston & Murphy for women’s shoes, but they consistently have some really cute heels. Today, we’re liking these “cognac” platform Mary Janes — we like the tiered look to the leather, as well as the color. The price isn’t bad, either — was $228, now $89 — but if you buy two pairs of shoes you get the second pair 50% off. EMILY HIGH-HEEL PLATFORM MARY JANE
