Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Oooh – this is the kind of blouse that I love, because it’s mostly just a black blouse but it has some really interesting pintucking at the top. I think those banded three-quarter sleeves look great, and I like the … Read More about Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Pintucked 3/4 Sleeve Blouse

Coffee Break – Domed Buckle Satchel
I hate the color “mustard.” I really do. So you know I must really be in love when I say that I’ve been eyeing this mustard yellow bag for a few weeks now (although it’s also available in black, orange, and a tan “natural”). I love the dome shape, the buckles (both on the sides … Read More about Coffee Break – Domed Buckle Satchel

What do you talk about at cocktail parties — particularly when you’re trying to network? I’ve gotten a few questions like this recently, such as the one from Reader K, below: I was invited to a co-workers party last weekend and I was the ONLY person from the office there. I didn’t know anybody, not … Read More about Party-Appropriate Conversation Topics
Thursday’s TPS Report: T Tahari Cali Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I like the unusual neckline on this blue and navy dress from Tahari, and I like the geometric side insets. I’m a bit torn on the fact that the back of the dress is a solid navy, but I suppose … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: T Tahari Cali Dress

Wednesday’s TPS Report: Seared Chevrons Cardigan
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. The outfit here is a bit, um, casual/creative — but that sweater is amazing.

Coffee Break – Soho Croc-Effect Leather 2013 Diary
I usually can resist the allure of high priced notebooks and calendars, but hello: gorgeous, gorgeous notepad from Smythson. Love that electric purple hue, the light-blue paper, and the suggestion that you display it proudly on your desk. (Although: I do wish it were a reusable cover instead of a diary, similar to these composition … Read More about Coffee Break – Soho Croc-Effect Leather 2013 Diary

Coffee Break – Darleen Pumps
Hmmn: not only are these low navy pumps on sale, but the 18 reviews are all overwhelmingly positive. Comfortable! Gorgeous! Walkable! I thought I’d post the navy since it’s always hard to find navy pumps (but note — you can wear black shoes with navy outfits); but these also come in black. They were $99, … Read More about Coffee Break – Darleen Pumps
