Coffee Break: Naturalizer Lennox Pump
We’ve featured Naturalizer’s Lennox heel on here a few times before, and these shiny taupe ones are best sellers at Zappos, with 629 positive reviews — not bad for an affordable heel ($79). Amazon has lucky sizes (in off-season colors) marked as low as $27, though — fyi! Naturalizer Lennox Pump (L-3)
Coffee Break: Kate Spade Umbrella
I recently saw this kind of umbrella referred to as Her Majesty’s Umbrella, and I’m loving this fun, hot pink take on it from Kate Spade (nearly sold out everywhere else it’s available). It looks functional but also like a great way to elevate your mood on a rainy, gray day. The umbrella is $38 … Read More about Coffee Break: Kate Spade Umbrella
Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Satin-Waist Sheath Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Wine isn’t a very “springy” color, I know, but this dress is so unique that I had to post it — the satin-waist inset, mixed with the sleeved, V-necked ponte, looks great (and 36″ long should be fine on most women). Very … Read More about Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Satin-Waist Sheath Dress
Coffee Break: Alexis Bittar Maldivian Necklace
My obsession with Alexis Bittar continues with this necklace, which looks delicate yet statement-y at the same time. The necklace is a bit of a splurge for a lot of plated hardware and non-precious stones, though: $595. Alexis Bittar Maldivian Necklace with Green Stones (L-2)
Thursday’s TPS Report: Pleated Crepe Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Commenters were eyeing this dress a while ago, and it’s been on my mind ever since — love the structured neckline and, of course, the three different colors of blue it’s available in. It’s also nice that it’s available in … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Pleated Crepe Dress
Suit of the Week: Reiss
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 for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. I do … Read More about Suit of the Week: Reiss
Wednesday’s TPS Report: Anabell Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I’ve liked this dress since I first saw it at full price — the texture, the sleeves, the cool hem, combined with the great fit and flare shape — but now that it’s 50% off it’s even better. It’s available … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Anabell Dress
Coffee Break: White House | Black Market Elongated Bow Belt
I’m normally not a fan of twee bows and the like, but this one looks kind of perfect — thin, simple, but feminine. I could see this being a great thing even to keep in your office to add shape to cardigans, dresses, and more. It’s $38 at White House | Black Market. White House … Read More about Coffee Break: White House | Black Market Elongated Bow Belt
Tuesday’s TPS Report: Baxter Jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Do not adjust your monitor: I think this is just one super-bright sweater. And I, of course, love it — particularly the almost vintage vibe (the gold buttons! the four pockets! the piping!) mixed with that super-now color. I’d go … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Baxter Jacket
Coffee Break: Ju-Ju-Be Fuel Cell Insulated Bag
Don’t be too alarmed by the fact that this is under the “diaper bag” section of Zappos — it just strikes me as a really cute insulated lunch bag. Readers, how many of you bring your own lunches (or parts thereof) in the summer? We haven’t talked about saving money on lunch in a while but … Read More about Coffee Break: Ju-Ju-Be Fuel Cell Insulated Bag
Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Stretch Crepe Sheath Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Hello, gorgeous. This stretch crepe sheath dress — with sleeves! And a high but interesting neckline! — is back in stock at Nordstrom. Love the color, love the hem length, love the sleeves… love it all. I might try it … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Stretch Crepe Sheath Dress
