I’m a sucker for a cute low heel, and this highly rated 2″ pump from Macy’s fits the bill. Alfani’s Step N Flex line has been heralded by readers as one of the most comfortable heel brands, and the cheetah print is on trend with all of the animal print heels out this season. (The … Read More about Coffee Break: Vixine Mid-Heel Pumps
Coffee Break: Reflective Color Mirror Lens Neon Color Wayfarers Style Sunglasses
Call me juvenile, but sometimes a silly pair of sunglasses elevates my mood like none other on a wintery day with gray slush as far as the eye can see. This “wayfarers style” comes in 10 different colors, has lots of positive reviews from Amazon customers, and most of the frames are marked between $3 … Read More about Coffee Break: Reflective Color Mirror Lens Neon Color Wayfarers Style Sunglasses
Coffee Break: Nudo 18k Gold Amethyst Earrings
Pomellato is a new brand to me, but it looks like they have a number of small, tasteful earrings that, while a splurge, would be definitely work appropriate. For once I like the purple the best — I think these would stand out more and be more flattering against most skin tones. They’re $4500 at … Read More about Coffee Break: Nudo 18k Gold Amethyst Earrings
Coffee Break: Polka-Dot Mary Jane Heels
A lot of comfort shoes either look like a) men’s shoes or b) clown’s shoes — crazy colors, unnecessary details like stitches and embroidery, and a general lack of sleekness. These 2″ Camper pumps, for once, don’t seem to fall into either category, and I think they’d be great commuting shoes for some women (who … Read More about Coffee Break: Polka-Dot Mary Jane Heels
Coffee Break: Lark Tote
I don’t normally think of London Fog as a bag brand, but this look slike a solid faux leather tote. I like all of the interior pockets and the stitch detailing on the front, and for those of you who like to wear navy with navy do note that this bag comes in navy (as … Read More about Coffee Break: Lark Tote

I’m loving these minimalist, unusual earrings by Gabriela Artigas — they’re so, so chic. Love the rose gold, the delicate nature, the elegance… fabulous. They’re $330 at ShopBop. Gabriela Artigas Infinite Tusk Earrings (L-2)
Coffee Break: Cobble Hill Curtis Hobo Bag
Neiman Marcus seems to have a good number of Kate Spade bags on sale. I’m liking this slouchy purple hobo bag — I like all of the pockets (two exterior, three interior), and I think this particular shade of purple can be worn year round. The bag was $348, but is now marked to $233. … Read More about Coffee Break: Cobble Hill Curtis Hobo Bag
Coffee Break: Loyal Heart Pumps
I was updating some of the links in The Corporette Guide to Comfortable Heels and came across these lovely Indigo by Clarks heels. They’re not exactly trendy at the moment, but I’m ok with that — I still think this style of shoe is a great way to get some height without sacrificing comfort, and … Read More about Coffee Break: Loyal Heart Pumps
Coffee Break: Valencia Pump
A sophisticated pair of Mary Janes can be hard to find, and I think Charles David strikes exactly the right balance with this fun Valencia pump. Yes, red patent can be a bit much for a very conservative office, but I often think it depends what else you wear it with — a subdued knee-length … Read More about Coffee Break: Valencia Pump
Coffee Break: Nadia Stacking Rings
I love a good druzy ring, and I’m on board with the stacking ring trend — so this set of druzy stacking rings is, of course, up my alley. The set is $220 at ShopBop. Dara Ettinger Nadia Stacking Rings (L-2)
Coffee Break: Reluctant Stars Zip Wallet
Fun! Everyone needs a colorful wallet (so it’s easier to find in your bag), and I like this purple one from Marc by Marc Jacobs. I particularly like that the pattern just reads as a standard dot print until you look closer and see that it’s rows and rows of stars. It was $98, but … Read More about Coffee Break: Reluctant Stars Zip Wallet
Coffee Break: Gabba Heels
Wow: 6pm has some great sales on Bruno Magli shoes today. Tons of cute pumps, a few cute wedges, and a lot of nice boots, too. My favorite are these strappy slingbacks in a lovely wine color (also available in black). They look cool, classic, and chic. They were $560, but are now marked to … Read More about Coffee Break: Gabba Heels
