    2021 Update: We still stand by this advice below, but you can also check out our more recent discussion on how to avoid professional frump. We got this reader mail a little while ago, and it seems appropriate in light of the response to this morning’s cardi set (wow, you guys did NOT like that)….

    Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Oooh, great jacket from Milly. We love the unusual elbow-length sleeves, as well as the ruffle and the single button. We’d wear it with gray trousers and a bright pastel t-shirt (yellow? mint?) in springtime, and, perhaps, a long silver…

    Something on your mind? Chat about it here. (Our suggestion for casual clothing this week are these great boots by Wanted — perfect for wearing with leggings or skinny jeans. We have a pair ourselves, and they’re comfortable, and the quality is decent for the price. They’re part of the great “Best of Boots” sale…
