Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I keep coming back to this dress, so I thought it would be today’s TPS.

Coffee Break – Zip Around Portfolio
Reader M wrote in to recommend this leather portfolio at Barney’s, noting: “Alas I don’t have it so I can’t vouch personally (so expensive!), but I’m pretty sure I would DIE of happiness if somebody gifted me this gorgeous, gorgeous zip-around leather portfolio.
