Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Helen Suiting Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

Coffee Break – Dylan Hobo
This brand is new to me, but I like the look of this bright yellow hobo. Like the large size of it (20″ wide by 8″ deep by 12″ high) as well as, of course, the bright pop of color — perfect for gray spring days.

Music at the Office
Can you listen to music at the office if you’re junior — particularly through headphones? Does it make you look less professional or focused if you prefer to work while listening to music — and how can you tell if you’re annoying your coworkers?
