We always forget about Johnston & Murphy for women’s shoes, but they consistently have some really cute heels. Today, we’re liking these “cognac” platform Mary Janes — we like the tiered look to the leather, as well as the color. The price isn’t bad, either — was $228, now $89 — but if you buy two pairs of shoes you get the second pair 50% off. EMILY HIGH-HEEL PLATFORM MARY JANE

Today we’re liking this pleated scarf from Johnston & Murphy. It’s a great basic to keep in your office, if only because — in a pinch — you can use it to mimic a blouse and raise the neckline of a dress that, perhaps, is lower-cut than you originally thought it was. It’s not a perfect fix, but is far better than going home to change. (Full disclosure: We had to do this the first time we wore a DvF dress to the office.) It’s $38, available in both white and black. PLEATED SCARF

We all know what basics professional women are supposed to have in their closets, but if you’re buying one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the right incarnation in stores. In “The Hunt,” we search the stores for a basic item that every woman should have.
Yes, everyone knows that you can get Manolo or Cole Haan nude beige pumps — but if those don’t work for you for some reason (too expensive, too high), here are some other options on the market at the moment…
Type Z – KC 2 (Camel Leather) – Footwear, $75 at Zappos (1.5″ heel) |
 |

BCBGirls – Freud (New Cream Puff) – Footwear, $89 at Zappos (3″ heel) |
| Johnston & Murphy’s Julia Mary Jane Pump, now $109 (was $228) |
Updates: We’ve been tied up all day and are just getting a chance to address the controversy over our use of the word “nude.” We sincerely apologize to anyone we’ve offended.
