Something on your mind? Chat about it here. Every year, come spring, I want a white bohemian-inspired blouse. And I’m really liking this one from Free People — it’s reasonably priced, and I love the slub knit, the seam on the arms, and the drawstring sleeves. It’s $78 at ShopBop in white (but note that … Read More about Weekend Open Thread

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Calvin Klein has a number of cute items on sale right now (including a bunch of dresses that are outside the price range for a Friday TPS, alas) but I’m liking the reasonable price on these bootcut pants. They’re actually … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Chambray Bootcut Pants
Coffee Break – Prixie Pump
Wow – some great deals on this magenta pump from Pour La Victoire, which I’ve long admired (and am actually surprised I haven’t posted before). I like the little ribbon detail on the vamp, the reasonable 2.5″ heel, and the high comfort ratings. I’m always a fan of a purple pump (great for navy, black, … Read More about Coffee Break – Prixie Pump

Thursday’s TPS Report: Lidia Ruffled Polo Top
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I saw this basic polo shirt at a Tory Burch preview a few weeks ago, and loved it immediately — it’s preppy and feminine but classic, and the tall collar would look great under a blazer. I think it would … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Lidia Ruffled Polo Top
Suit of the Week: Tahari by ASL
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. This suit caught my … Read More about Suit of the Week: Tahari by ASL
What’s in Kat’s Purse?
I’ve noticed that a lot of bloggers have done “What’s in your bag” kind of features, so I thought I’d start with my own bag. So, above, a snapshot of the contents of my purse… I switch bags often, so I try to keep things to a minimum, I guess. Depending on which bag I’m … Read More about What’s in Kat’s Purse?
Wednesday’s TPS Report: L’ AUTRE CHOSE Blazer
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’ve had a thing for green blazers lately, and this wool one is no exception. I like the slightly different fabric on the lapels, as well as the pockets, and I think the single button (while high) could be flattering. … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: L’ AUTRE CHOSE Blazer
Coffee Break – Gallery Leather Shoulder Bag
I actually bought this purse sometime last fall — it marks my first yellow purse. I like it a lot — it’s surprisingly big, and the leather has a nice, soft, worn look to it, which helps offset some of the shock of carrying a yellow purse. I love wearing it with grays, as well … Read More about Coffee Break – Gallery Leather Shoulder Bag
Tales from the Wallet: How to Live Within Your Means
We’ve talked about budgets before, but we haven’t really discussed how to live within your means, which is a bit of a different subject. So let’s discuss. (Pictured: Burberry Medium Nova Pop Dégradé Wallet, available at Burberry for $275.) I think living within your means is a bit like packing a suitcase: you have to … Read More about Tales from the Wallet: How to Live Within Your Means
Tuesday’s TPS Report: Painted Cardigan
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I always like a cardigan for a casual day, and I love this creamy Leifsdottir cardigan with an ombre artsy pattern on it. I’d wear it as a layering piece with an otherwise boring outfit — say, a navy pencil … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Painted Cardigan
