This pump from Michael Michael Kors is getting awesome reviews. It comes in the pictured olive suede as well as taupe suede, black leather, and black with a gold star pattern. I always like olive with navy and/or cobalt, but that’s me. It’s $98.95 at Nordstrom, available in sizes 5–11. (Oooh, note that Amazon has … Read More about Workwear Hall of Fame: Dorothy Flex Pump
Ladies, do you meditate? I’ve never found the time to learn to meditate myself, always considering it a luxury — but I just got back from an alumni networking event that featured a lot of mini-talks about the benefits of meditation for business women, lawyers, and other executives, and now I’m kind of fascinated. Did … Read More about The Benefits Of Meditation for Businesswomen
Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’m usually kind of iffy on St. John, but I’m now obsessed with all of the bright, happy separates on sale in colors like hot pink, marigold, and medium blue. I featured the hot pink twinset in yesterday’s roundup of what … Read More about Tuesday’s Workwear Report: Ribbon Texture Knit Skirt
The Nordstrom Fall Sale is on, so I thought I’d do a roundup of some great pieces I’m seeing for work… There are lots of lucky sizes left in clothes, so you’re probably best advised to start by narrowing down to just your size range(s) — but as far as shoes and bags go there … Read More about What to Get for Work at the Nordstrom Fall Sale
I was updating an old post on how to wear stockings to work (fun story: we occasionally get flagged by Google as a NSFW site because of posts like that, in part because posts like that attract some… interesting… commenters, and in part, as best I can guess, because we’re featuring images of pantyhose packages.) … Read More about Coffee Break: Hosiery Mate

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This windowpane dress from L.K. Bennett looks great — I like the hemline and the sleeve length and the way the pattern doesn’t align with the belt perfectly. Of course, you could swap out the belt for something with a … Read More about Splurge Monday’s Workwear Report: Dinah Window Pane Dress
Something on your mind? Chat about it here. I think we featured a dress like this last year, but I was just at an alumni event and saw someone wearing it — in the daytime. I gotta say, it was really lovely and wasn’t too cocktail evening-y at all. (She got it in the alumni … Read More about Weekend Open Thread

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. This skirt from Vince Camuto is getting a lot of good reviews at Nordstrom — and Vince Camuto has another tube skirt that’s been around for a few years that we’ve noted in the past, also with good reviews. (It … Read More about Frugal Friday’s Workwear Report: Faux Wrap Tube Skirt
This tote is one of the bestsellers at Bloomingdale’s, and a few other stores have some options, too, like Zappos, Amazon, and Nordstrom (although Nordstrom doesn’t have the slouchy tote). No one seems to have as many as Bloomingdale’s, though. I like the stitched, quilted look, and the great chain detail, and the tote has a magnetic … Read More about Coffee Break: Alexa Quilted Slouchy Leather Tote
