Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We begin the week in splurge mode, with our most expensive suggestions, and wind our way to Friday, where a less expensive item of clothing might be just what you need to make it to the weekend. We like this lovely basic fitted shirt from Martin + Osa, which generally specializes in casual clothes — we like the darts below the bust, the wide cuffs, and the overall look of the stripes. We especially like that it's on sale for $29.95 (was $69.95) and still available in two colors and lots of sizes. Martin + Osa's Candy-Stripe Cuffed ShirtSales of note for 1/2:

Yeah, if you are young, long hair, a shirt like this is one of the best ways to instantly make your professionalism unquestionable, from a sartorial perspective of course. If you do a bad job you can of course undo the good work:).
Cute! Although it looks like it fits the model horrendously if you click through to the store photos – chest pucker (made more obvious by the no-longer-vertical stripes) and lots of folds across her back.
I think it only looks good on that georgous girl, and not because it’s a nice shirt.
I own several of the solid shirts in that style and have been quite pleased with them. I picked mine up at their big January sale – got a bunch for $14 and $19 :)
I tried this shirt on and there was a reason it was on sale with lots of colors left! But they do look great in the picture (save the fit issues).
