We’re loving this sweet, simple silk blouse from Theory. The sleeves have the perfect amount (or lack of) pouf, and we like the banded collar. We also really like the way the blouse kind of looks like either dots or an ocelot pattern, but is more abstract than either of those things up close. Was $150, now $89 at Nordstrom (available in sizes S, M, L). Theory ‘Vikie – Choir’ Blouse

We’re liking this cotton and silk ruffled blouse from Banana. The small bit of print… the shape of the neckline… the loose fitting sleeves — like it all. We’d wear it tucked in with a gray or navy suit, perhaps with pearls. It’s $59 at Banana Republic, available in both the purple and a light green. Banana Republic Cotton/silk ruffle printed blouse

We’re normally against bowties, but we’re digging this bright silk blouse from Anthropologie. We like the unusual color, the cool “waterfall” detailing on the sleeves, and, God help us, even the loosely tied bowtie. We wish the blouse were long enough to tuck in, but that’s just us. We’d wear it with gray trousers and a navy cardigan, perhaps. It’s $98 at Anthropologie (most sizes available on 1/22, for some reason). Bright Side Blouse

Reader M writes in to suggest this lovely blouse, which has great pleating at the neckline, tiers on the sleeves, and, yes, comes with a cami. We like that it’s a a little frothy without being girly; we also like that it’s a blouse without the fuss of gaping buttons. We’d wear it with a high-waisted skirt; we might also try it with a black turtleneck beneath it for blustery winter days. It’s on clearance at Victoria’s Secret for $29.99 (was $48), available in green, pink and black in sizes XS-L. Silk georgette tiered-cuff blouse

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We begin the week in splurge mode, with our most expensive suggestions, and wind our way to Friday, where a less expensive item of clothing might be just what you need to make it to the weekend.

If you’re a fan of prints, get the best quality clothes you can afford — preferably designer. There are two reasons for this: first, prints are more memorable, and you’d surely prefer everyone thinking, “Oh, there’s Susie wearing her St. John blouse again,” rather than, “Geez, Susie loves that Old Navy top.” Furthermore, you frequently get what you pay for with designer prints in that the details of the garment, like the seams, are designed to work with the print. In any event, we love this yellow paisley top from SoCa St. John — the twist in the neckline, the delicate but bold print… We’d wear it with trousers, untucked, with a cropped jacket, or perhaps beneath a skirt suit. Beautiful. It’s on pre-sale at Nordstrom for $225. SoCa St. John Abstract Paisley Print Top

We’re loving this cotton and silk blouse from Banana Republic — we love it in all the colors it comes in (white, yellow and green), but particularly the green. It’s fresh and springy, but not dusty at all like pastels can be sometimes. We’d wear it with navy trousers, dark gray, or even black (so long as there was another major color in the mix so you don’t end up looking like a mint cookie). Each color of the blouse is a different sale price; the green is now $29.99 (was $59). (If you end up buying more than $100, you can take 25% off your entire purchase, which would bring the price down to $22.50 — use code SUMMER.) Women: Cotton/silk pleated blouse – Sea green

We like this great black blouse by Marc by Marc Jacobs for today’s TPS. We’re loving the tiny swiss dot pattern and the tonal trim on the placket — we even like the Peter Pan collar. We’d wear it with gray slacks and colorful pumps (red, yellow, purple) or perhaps beneath a beige suit. Available at Nordstrom’s for $178. MARC BY MARC JACOBS Swiss Dot Voile Top

Saks has started its spring sales already, including this lovely blouse from Lafayette 148. We would wear it with a pencil skirt and pumps, or perhaps beneath a suit — we like the idea of the tall collar standing up beneath lapels. It is linen, which (while prone to wrinkles) can be great when it’s 90 degrees and you’re at a professional event. It’s on sale for $136, down from $228. Lafayette 148 Dotted Patio Blouse

Oooh, cute and fun blouse from Banana Republic. We love unexpected color combinations because they’re youthful and jubilant but sophisticated and stylized as well. Alas, it is rayon instead of silk, but that probably means it will wrinkle less. Also, the price is much better than it would be were it silk: $69. Not bad; not bad at all.
