Aerosoles Women's Bronze Age Wedge SandalSomething on your mind? Chat about it here.

Wedges are big for the summer (aren’t they always, though?) and I like the curved, slenderish heel on this one.  It’s available in black, silver, and gold; I love the gold the most.  The shoes are $59.99 at Amazon. Aerosoles Women’s Bronze Age Wedge Sandal

Notched V-Neck TeeSomething on your mind? Chat about it here.

Lately I’m loving the aggressively casual t-shirts at Anthropologie, such as this notched-necked, loose tee with an uneven, almost ragged hem. Nice. It’s new to the sale section, too — it was $68 but is now marked to $40, it’s available in eight colors and sizes XS-XL. Notched V-Neck Tee

P.S. Please take the Corporette Survey (and enter the giveaway) if you haven’t already. (I forgot to mention this, but I’ll be randomly selecting the winner of the giveaway next Friday, 5/17.)

Riller & Fount OlympiaSomething on your mind? Chat about it here.

6pm’s dress sale includes a lot of really cute pieces, both for work and play (including this great hot pink Karen Kane faux-wrap dress for $35, and this previously-recommended Michael Michael Kors navy sheath  for $29). For the weekend, though, I’m liking this casual Olympia dress, from Riller & Fount — the shoulder ruching, the braided waist, the simple jersey — like it all. I’d wear it to brunch with flats and a hat, and dress it up at night with some serious eye emakeup, heels, and a few sparkly bangles on the bare arm. It’s marked to $29.99 (down from $165).

Market Day Striped MaxiSomething on your mind? Chat about it here.

As warmer weather slowly arrives, I’ve kind of been in a maxi dress mood. I’m loving some of the striped ones I’m seeing, like this fun one by Puella (available in grey, navy, and mint, in regular and petites) — colors, the stripes, the different pattern, the uneven hem… very cool. It’s $88 at Anthropologie.com. Market Day Striped Maxi

Melissa + Campana Scribble Flats Something on your mind? Chat about it here.

I like these fun scribble flats for the weekend — the pink, the scribble, the soft rubber. Nice. They’re $80 at Shopbop. Melissa + Campana Scribble Flats

COLE HAAN Juliana Glitter Pointed Toe PumpsSomething on your mind? Chat about it here.

I’ve seen these glittery Cole Haan pumps on sale at a few places, and must say I’m kind of tempted — a low heel, a classic pump, plus glitter = the perfect thing to wear out for dressier events, whether it’s date night, a wedding, or even a gala. They were $178, but are now marked to $129.98; with code FRIENDS they come down to under $100. (They’re also on sale at Dillards, Neiman Marcus, and Amazon for $76-$129.) COLE HAAN Juliana Glitter Pointed Toe Pumps
