layering pieces

As we drift into springy and summery weather (finally) we are rediscovering our love of lightweight scarves. For temperatures in the low 70s, the scarf always strikes us as the perfect accessory. Wrap it around your neck (multiple times, if you like) on your way to work, or use it as a stole if you’re sitting outside having a drink or grabbing a bite after work. The best part, we think: unlike a jacket, it’s easy to scrunch the scarf up and stick it in your bag if the weather suddenly turns hotter. Today, we’re liking this Spring Garden scarf from Affordable Scarves — at $11.26, it’s definitely affordable.  Spring Garden Pashmina

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
Today we wanted to point you to this fabulous, almost vintage-looking top from Le Train Bleu, which has many excellent work pieces right now.  According to the website, it has a keyhole back, so you can wear the top backwards as a v-neck, and it’s great as a layering piece under blouses, jackets, and we’re guessing under dresses, also.  The piece looks really comfortable, classic, and beautiful, and all for $72.  (It also seems to keep selling out — hopefully they are replenishing their stock soon, as there are only Black/Smalls left at the moment.)  Jabot Top

If you’ve recently seen a great work piece you’d like to recommend to the readers, please e-mail editor@corporette.com with “TPS” in the subject line. Unless you ask otherwise, we’ll refer to you by your first initial.
