Happy Tuesday! Let’s ignore the full mini-skirt (sadly, a trend that may be coming back) and instead focus on the blazer. Love the slight peak to the shoulders, the single button, and the springy vibe. It’s the kind of thing that you can wear simply (white, good quality t-shirt or silk sweater beneath, perhaps with some beige trousers), with a lot of personality on display (such as with a “clashing floral print,” as Net-a-Porter recommends), or perhaps even into fall (perhaps with a burnt orange shell and black pants). Lovely. It’s $395 at Net-a-Porter. Alice + Olivia Checked cotton and wool-blend blazer

Net-a-Porter has some good sales right now, and while most are lucky sizes only (and all still constitute a splurge!) it’s worth checking out if you’re in the market for designer duds. This morning, I’m liking this simple red dress from Oscar de la Renta — the pleated waist and oh-so-slight cowl is interesting, as is the zipper detail on the back. Was $1590, now $795 (size 4 only).

First, Net-a-Porter is having some lovely sales right now. This silk blouse is not among those sales — but it’s interesting because, at least according to Net-a-Porter, this pale blush pink is going to be the hot color next season. I like this blouse in any event — the sleeves are draped artfully, the pleat at the neck/placket is interesting but not fussy, and the simple neckline is nice. I’d wear it with a white camisole, layered beneath a gray suit. It’s $545 at Net-a-Porter. Stella McCartney Draped-front silk blouse

We like this playful navy and white blouse from Jason Wu — under a simple black suit (ooh, or a white suit) it would be fabulous. (Plus, the pockets give you extra coverage if you decide to wear it with nothing below it, as worn on the runway. (Although for work, we’d probably try it with a dark camisole beneath it.) It’s $595 at Net-a-Porter.com. Dot-pattern silk-chiffon shirt

Apparently, this morning I am channeling Rachel Zoe, because upon seeing this dress my first response was: “I’m dying!” LOVE the gray and black monochrome look, love the not-quite-a-grid grid, love the silk trim, and love that it’s otherwise wool-crepe. Gorgeous. Hang on to your hats, ladies: it’s $2,875 at Net-a-Porter.com. Vionnet Wool-crepe dress

For reasons unbeknownst to us, we are suddenly seeing a lot of dresses with sleeves for sale. After an entire winter of everyone (including us) saying, why are there no dresses with sleeves, the fashion powers that be think we want to wear long-sleeved dresses for spring. Ah well. Today’s TPS is this lovely DKNY dress, which we’ve actually seen in person as well — the fabric is a great suiting material, and the cut is simple and work-appropriate. It’s $325 at Net-a-Porter, still available in sizes 0, 4, 6, 12, 14. Wool-blend pencil dress
