It’s hard to find a circle skirt that looks professional enough for the office, but I’m really liking this one from French designer Sophie Theallet’s new collaboration with The Limited. (You may recognize her name because Michelle Obama often wears her dresses.)  For once, I like the belt (although it is removable), and I like the pattern on the skirt. To keep it on the grown up, professional side of things, I’d wear it with skinny-heeled shoes (not flats or stacked heels) and if possible add structure to the top of the outfit, such as with a cropped jacket or a fitted, neatly-tucked blouse. It’s $79.90 at The Limited. Sophie Theallet Belted Circle Skirt

P.S. Today, take 40% off your original ticket price with code MAY40, bringing the skirt’s price down to $47.94; The Limited is also offering an additional 25% off markdowns.

Happy Wednesday! I’m liking this casual faux-wrap dress from Karen Kane today — it’s machine washable, looks flattering, and has a fun print. It’s a bit difficult to see with the print, but it has a shirred crossover front, and a gathered side with ruffle detail; it’s made of viscose/spandex — and it’s on sale at Bloomingdale’s for $96 (originally $138). I’d wear it with nude-for-me pumps and, possibly, a white blazer or cardigan. Karen Kane Cascade Print Dress

Reader A wrote in to recommend this dress, noting:

It is awesome. It is machine washable, the fabric is thick enough to smooth over any lumps, it is lined, and the neckline is low enough to be flattering but high enough to avoid raising eyebrows. The A-line is also incredibly flattering. The only thing I did was use a scissors to cut off the threads tacking on what looks like a very cheap belt and replaced it with one of my own belts (which instantly upgraded the dress). The sizing isn’t perfect (I’m overly busty and had to go up a size, leaving it a little loose in the waist), but with a cardigan and flats it is perfect for a spring day at the office. Quite the steal.

Well well: good to know. The dress is on deep discount right now — originally $60, now marked to $21.99 (through 5/5). (Alas, I couldn’t get one of the promo codes to work with the dress, but maybe someone else will have more luck.) It’s available in very limited sizes in red, but the black has plenty of sizes in stock. AGB Dress, Sleeveless Belted Scoop-Neck A-Line

I found this simple, cap-sleeved sheath dress on Monday while doing our round-up of basic sleeveless sheath dresses and thought, ooh, pretty — but now that it’s on deep discount now at both Lord & Taylor and Dillards the find is all the sweeter. I like the modest V, the set-in waist, and the ladylike hem length. It was $99 (and still is at JNY.com), but at Lord & Taylor it’s marked to $59 (take an extra 20% off with code LOVE, bringing it down to $47) and down to $41 at Dillards.
