Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Grosgrain Bow Top
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. The Limited has a bunch of cute new tops, including this black-on-black number. From afar, it looks like a regular black tee, maybe with a bit of a pattern on it — closer up, you can see the black grosgrain … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Grosgrain Bow Top
Coffee Break: High Fashion Tote
OK, so we’re not sold on the name (they couldn’t come up with anything better than “3023 Drawstring Tote”?) but we like the look of this product. Love the vertical stripes of alternating leathers, as well as the nice size — it’s 15.25″ high, 14.25″ wide, and 3″ deep, with an 8″ shoulder drop. Also … Read More about Coffee Break: High Fashion Tote

Thursday’s TPS Report: Piqué jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’ll admit it: today’s TPS was inspired after we strolled through the “50 Most Beautiful People” slideshow at The Hill (hat tip to CapHillStyle) — there’s a picture of a woman wearing a yellow blazer who, we think, projects the … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Piqué jacket
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. Apologies to post two … Read More about Suit of the Week

Wednesday’s TPS Report: Arani Skirt
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Today we’re loving this simple A-line silk skirt. Love the basketweave pattern; love the graphic black and white combination, and love that it’s an A-line. We’d wear it with a pale blue blouse, a white blazer, and nude pumps. It’s … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Arani Skirt
Coffee Break: Maddox Flats
Today we’re liking these Maddox Flats from Fossil. For starters, they have a great comfort rating on Zappos (always important!); we also like the buckle detail on the toe. While we like the sand color (pictured), it should be noted that there are a ton of other colors — mostly with a brown buckle. Ladies … Read More about Coffee Break: Maddox Flats
Tuesday’s TPS Report: ‘Fluid’ Jacquard Cardigan
We love the combination of black and gray, as well as the folded collar. We’d try it with a belt, but would probably wear it open on top of a sheath dress or a pencil skirt.
Coffee Break: Lily Ponytail Holder
Every Sunday, I’ve been tuning in to The Next Food Network Star — it’s a great show (and I totally have a girl crush on Susie Fogelson) but really, I’ve been tuning in to root for my old college friend Aarti, who was my suitemate and next-door-neighbor back in my sophomore year of college.
