Circa Joan & David - Marietta (Ivory Multi Leather) - Footwear Reader A wrote in to tip us off to this lovely heel, noting that it’s the “most comfortable summer work heel I’ve had in a while.”  Nice!  We like the look of the woven leather, as well as the slight point to the toe.  The ivory is on sale at Zappos for $83.76, while the black is on sale for $76.83 (both were originally $98).   Circa Joan & David – Marietta (Ivory Multi Leather) – Footwear

Batik Garden CardiganWe’re liking this lovely white cardigan from J. Jill.  We like that the fabric is a mix of silk, cotton, and cashmere — all comfy, all handwashable — and we like the muted print.  We’d wear it with a white tee, and a pencil skirt, and perhaps add a brown belt on top.  It’s $79 at J. Jill (was $89) in regular, petites, and women’s sizes. Batik Garden Cardigan

We’re loving this simple navy cardigan with chain details along the cuffs and lapels.  It strikes us as relaxed but still buttoned up, in a preppy (but not too preppy) way.  We like that there’s a hook closure, as well as front pockets.  It’s $235 at RevolveClothing.com.   Milly Jacquard Chain Cardigan

Kate Spade - Neptune Avenue Stevie (Bluebell) - Bags and LuggageThis strikes us as a great, very fresh-looking canvas bag from Kate Spade — the floral design is beautiful, and the open top would allow you to shove a folder or notepad or two in there.  It’s $295 at Zappos.com.  Kate Spade – Neptune Avenue Stevie (Bluebell)

Today we’re liking this classic button front from Theory.  We love the light blue windowpane, as well as the slightly wide collar.  We’d wear it with a white camisole beneath it, though — the description notes it’s “slightly sheer.”  It’s on sale at Nordstrom — was $190, now $113, available in sizes petite, small, large, and XL.   Theory ‘Kenola – Windowpane’ Shirt

Incidentally — we will be a bit busy this week (traveling today, helping to run a conference on Thurs. and Fri., and appearing in MN for an AK Anne Klein appearance on Sat.) so comment moderation may be a bit slower than usual. We’ll do our best!

Reader P writes in to recommend this silk top from Nanette Lepore, which, she notes, “works in so many ways and perfect on an hour-glass figure.”  We like it also (particularly the combo of silk and stud detailing), but the obvious point here is to know your office — in a more conservative office this would work best under a buttoned-up suit, with very traditional pumps — remove the jacket to take it from desk to dinner.  Otherwise, we’d wear it with a pencil skirt, or perhaps a high-waisted skirt.  It’s on sale at Saks, marked from $248 to $185.   Whip It Silk Top
