We’re always a fan of a purple pump, and we like these dark purple suede ones from Bandolino. We like the quarter strap (more flattering than a straight-across-the-ankle Mary Jane, but just as walkable); also liking the chain detailing, provided they’re not too noisy in real life. The price is certainly right — the shoes are $68 at Zappos (also available in black and gray). Bandolino – Signmeup (Dark Purple Suede) – Footwear
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

We’re loving these adorable pink suede Paul Smith heels — that bit of striping, that blast of color on the sole — love it all. We’d wear them with gray trousers and a very basic black blouse and blazer. And they’re on sale at Zappos — now $187, formerly $384. (They’re available in black patent, as well.)
