Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
The funny thing about a short week (like last week) is that it makes the next one seem even longer by comparison — so happy Friday to everyone. For today, we like this basic tank that has some nice pleating at the top — definitely acceptable under a suit or a camisole, or perhaps a good way to raise the neckline of an otherwise iffy sweater. We know a good sale when we see one, too — this was $59.50, and is now $17.85 at Dillards. Available in black, purple, and blue (pictured), in a variety of sizes for each color.

Great pick – great price!
A very nice basic. Ann Taylor often has similar basics at good prices.
I bought this in purple at Macy’s a couple of weeks ago, mostly because it was such a good price (clearance, coupons, etc.). It’s very comfortable, completely professional under a jacket, and I love it with a gray suit.
I like that Lauren shell. I just bought 3 beautiful layering shells at Jones New York.com for $50 and free shipping too. (They’re having a 30% off Friends & Family event.) My Jones New York pieces last forever, but I have to be careful or I’ll end up looking 10 years older, style-wise!
Perfect! I will wear it under a velvet jacket with an iffy v-neck.
“Under a suit or a camisole” – don’t you mean “under a suit or a cardigan”?
This top is great.
