Macy’s

Sofft - Gaige (Black Cracked Suede)We are loving these shoes from Sofft as a vintagey alternative to a regular pump. The super high vamp makes them very walkable, but we think the way the vamp dips down will be more attractive than, say, a Mary Jane or t-strap shoe. For some reason, we’re seeing them with a swingy A-line skirt. They’re $109 at Zappos in “cracked suede” (pictured) and regular black leather (Sofft – Gaige (Black Cracked Suede) – Footwear); while Macy’s has the same shoe in a red and gray suede (Sofft Shoes, Gaige Pumps Women’s Shoes).

We’re loving this simple blue dress from Evan Picone, available at Macy’s.  Love the longer sleeves, the crossover neckline, the A-line skirt — and that royal blue color!  The dress is $99, with an extra 15% off in the ongoing sale.  It’s available in blue (pictured), purple, and black.  Evan Picone Dress, Three Quarter Sleeve Marilyn

Suit of the Week

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.

We’re liking this basic gray pants suit by Tahari.  We like the high single button, the straight-cut pants, and the general color of it — as we’ve said before, gray suits can be so much friendlier than black or navy suits.  Lovely!  With Macy’s current promotion (code SUMMER gets you 15-20% off, plus free shipping if you spend $99), it comes down to $291 (originally $320).     Tahari Suit, Single Button Jacket & Straight Leg Pants

Tahari Suit, Seersucker Jacket and PantsFor busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.

Amazingly, it won’t be summer for a few weeks still — and yet we’re digging this seersucker suit.  We like the pieces together, but would probably wear them just as much apart:  the blazer on top of a navy or black sheath dress, or the seersucker pants with a white blazer and white tee.  The suit is on sale, also — it was $280, now $140 in sizes 2-18.  It’s also available in plus sizes 14W-24W, on sale for $160.  Tahari Suit, Seersucker Jacket and Pants

For this week’s suit of the week, we’re liking this uncomplicated polyester suit from Calvin Klein with some great pleat details on the jacket — it’s interesting but simple at the same time.  We also like that the fabric has a bit of spandex in it, to give it just a wee bit of stretch.  The suit (Calvin Klein Suit, Black Pleated Jacket Pant Suit) is currently $129 (formerly $200) at Macy’s, and is available in sizes 2-14.

Also: If you’re a size 6, there’s a great sale on a black boucle skirt suit at Neiman Marcus…

Macy’s has a ton of cute cashmere sweaters on sale right now, and we’re liking this cashmere henley with just a few feminine ruffles.  We like the small, pretty buttons, the bright pop of color, and the plain edge at the bottom.  (In our experience, ruffles never look good at the bottom of  a sweater.)  This one is on sale for $94.99 (formerly $130), and is available in black, blue, red, purple, and gray in sizes S-XL and petitesCharter Club Sweater, Cashmere Ruffled Henley
