Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Yes, yes: I love a good print. This “graphic framework” blouse from Anthropologie is no different — but I also love that it’s got a V-neck and a flattering sash tie. I’d wear it with a gray boyfriend cardigan, navy … Read More about Frugal Wednesday’s TPS Report: Graphic Framework Blouse
Coffee Break – Commando Tights
We are firmly into fall right now, and that means I am thinking tights. I had heard about Commando for years as being the best “opaque” tights, but it wasn’t until last year (when I got a pair for free at a Bare Necessities event, to be honest) that I tried them out — and … Read More about Coffee Break – Commando Tights
Tuesday’s TPS Report: Sleeved Colorblock Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Happy Tuesday! I think this is a really pretty, classy dress from Muse — and it looks comfortable, too. I particularly like the gathered ruching at the waist (flattering!), and call me crazy, but I think the polyester/spandex fabric has … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Sleeved Colorblock Dress
Coffee Break – Loose Rib Knitted Snood
Hmmn: I’m kind of loving the idea of a snood right now. It’s a scarf! It’s a really chunky necklace! It’s a cowl neck! It can even be pulled down and worn around your shoulders, a bit like a wrap/shrug. Asos has a nice looking one in a variety of fun colors, including a lovely … Read More about Coffee Break – Loose Rib Knitted Snood

This skirt, at 40% off, still has … Read More about Frugal Friday’s TPS Report: Ponte Knit Pencil Skirt
Coffee Break – Caroline Pleated Clutch
As the season for holiday parties approaches, I have clutches on my mind — in part because I have apparently lost my favorite clutch, a blue leather number. I’m eyeing the Lauren Merkin clutches on sale at Last Call by Neiman Marcus for a possible replacement, particularly this pleated “Caroline” clutch. For my $.02, a … Read More about Coffee Break – Caroline Pleated Clutch
Thursday’s TPS Report: Resort Boyfriend Blazer
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I think this may be the first time that something from Guess is making an appearance on Corporette — yes, it’s a mall store from the 80s, but this looks like a really cute blazer. The crisp white does look … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Resort Boyfriend Blazer
Suit of the Week: J.Crew
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. Happy hump … Read More about Suit of the Week: J.Crew
Wednesday’s TPS Report: Cashmere Drape Neck Sweater
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Wow: this looks like the perfect cowl neck sweater for the office. See how it’s loose but still fitted? How the neckline is more of a V than a U, and not a very low one at that? I suspect … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Cashmere Drape Neck Sweater

Target is having a pretty great deal today — buy one item Men’s, Women’s and Kids’ apparel, accessories and shoes and get 50% off an additional item from one of these categories — plus, there’s always free shipping when you spend $50. This strikes me as a great time to stock up on exercise duds … Read More about Coffee Break – Semi Fitted Pants
