I always like a dress with sleeves — and yet they can be so difficult to find! This one, in J.Crew’s four-season Super 120s merino wool (in pinstripe) looks great. Note the darts both in front and in the back, and the slight puckering on the cap sleeves… love it all. I’d perhaps leave the flat loafers at home, but hey… the dress is $198 (regulars and petites, navy and charcoal) at J.Crew. Director dress in pinstripe Super 120s

Hot, hot blazer from HUGO. I particularly love the collar and lapel, both of which have a slightly different pattern than the horizontal stripes everywhere else. For some reason I’m seeing it with a mint pencil skirt and a blue silk tee, but that’s me. It’s $650 at Hugoboss.com. Striped ‘Abelin’ Jacket by HUGO

I was originally going recommend another top from The Limited, but then I started poking around the site and found this highly rated cap sleeve tee, available in 14(!) colors. Every comment talks about how comfortable it is, how soft, how versatile, how great it is under suits, and how the commenter has gone back to buy it in another three colors they love it so much. So I had to pass it along to you guys — particularly since The Limited is having a sitewide $25 off ever $50 you spend sale (with code JUST4U) that makes the$26.90 top basically two for one.

Sometimes, you just want a great basic… like this sleeveless shift dress in navy, available in sizes 2-16. Love the vertical seaming, the scoop neckline (flattering!) and the thick straps. This is $109.99 at Lord & Taylor, but code MOM brings it down to $88. TAHARI ARTHUR S. LEVINE CLASSICS Sleeveless Shift Dress

Ooh: I really like this MICHAEL Michael Kors faux-wrap dress. It comes in so many other iterations (long-sleeves! prints! plus sizes! petites!) it’s hard to believe I haven’t noticed it before, but I like the plain, cap-sleeved navy one that Bloomingdale’s has right now the best. It’s hard to beat the price: $120 (although some of the other versions linked to above are on sale). MICHAEL Michael Kors Faux Wrap Dress

I have mixed feelings about silk blazers: on the one hand, yay breathability! On the other hand, boo wrinkles and inappropriate-for-day shinyness. Still, I’d give this cute orange blazer a try by Lauren by Ralph Lauren — the slight shaping is perfect, and the shoulders feel very now (not too poufed, not too sharp, not too square). Lord & Taylor’s has all 3 colors (orange, white, and navy) in regular sizes, and also has the navy available for petites and plus sizes. Prices range $250-$270, but get a 15% off regular and sale items with code BEST. Benita Silk Jacket
