Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I keep coming back to this dress, so I thought it would be today’s TPS.

Coffee Break – Dollar Shave Club
I first heard about Dollar Shave Club from readers, singing its praises — I finally went over, watched the (very charming) video, and see what they’re talking about — it looks pretty awesome. The idea: why overpay for razors when you can get a nice sharp razor sent to you every month for a very … Read More about Coffee Break – Dollar Shave Club
Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Leather-Elbow Patch Blazer
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Happy Green Monday, everyone! Nope, I haven’t heard of it either. They say it’s similar to Cyber Monday, but mostly I’m just seeing continuations of previous sales, perhaps with free shipping thrown in. (If I see anything good, I’ll blog … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Leather-Elbow Patch Blazer
Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Lace Collar 3/4 Sleeve Sweater
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’m going to be honest: I hate the “collar” look that’s going on right now. They so often look “little girl” or just plain “fug.” (I particularly hate the “add a collar” trend — I would almost always prefer a … Read More about Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Lace Collar 3/4 Sleeve Sweater
Coffee Break – Zip Around Portfolio
Reader M wrote in to recommend this leather portfolio at Barney’s, noting: “Alas I don’t have it so I can’t vouch personally (so expensive!), but I’m pretty sure I would DIE of happiness if somebody gifted me this gorgeous, gorgeous zip-around leather portfolio. It should even fit legal size paper, judging from the dimensions.” Le … Read More about Coffee Break – Zip Around Portfolio
Thursday’s TPS Report: Leroy & Perry Leopard Knit Tee
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. For some reason, this morning, I am in the mood for leopard print.

Suit of the Week: Akris Punto
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 for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. I originally … Read More about Suit of the Week: Akris Punto

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Happy Wednesday!

Coffee Break – The Tops and Tails Set
I briefly mentioned that I was looking at this base coat and quickdry topcoat duo from Butter London back when Beauty.com had their big sale a few weeks ago — I got it, and I highly recommend. Not only does the basecoat go on nice and smooth, and the top coat dry super quickly, but … Read More about Coffee Break – The Tops and Tails Set

Coffee Break – Old Time Candy
Last December I used a lot of Coffee Breaks for gift ideas, and I thought I’d continue that tradition this year. For today’s coffee break, I thought I’d mention Old Time Candy, a website that sells “retro candy.” They specialize in decade birthdays (Happy 60th! Here’s a selection of candy from the 1950s!) but I … Read More about Coffee Break – Old Time Candy
Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Long-Sleeve Dress With Keyhole Back
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Love. This. Dress. I’m not sure how I feel about the head-to-toe red, but the fact that I’m on the fence about it says it’s probably worth trying. But the dress — oh, the dress! Love the wide bateau neckline, … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Long-Sleeve Dress With Keyhole Back
