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, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.

Wednesday’s TPS Report: Silk Charmeuse Herringbone Print Shirt Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We are loving this silk charmeuse herringbone dress from Brooks Brothers which, we think, shows how a shirt dress can be uber classic, feminine, and graceful. (As opposed to oh so many dresses out there right now that look like … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Silk Charmeuse Herringbone Print Shirt Dress
Tuesday’s TPS Report: Ribbon Cardigan & Tank
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’re not quite sure why, but this one has eluded us — we first saw it in the Neiman Marcus catalog a while ago, and then couldn’t find on the website, and even now, searching for “Michael Simon” does not … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Ribbon Cardigan & Tank
Coffee Break: Christa Basic Pump
Reader J wrote in to sing the praises of these wine-colored pumps from AK Anne Klein: They’re quite comfortable, the heel isn’t too high, and the cut out on the inside of the shoe gives it a little visual interest. And I love the wine color – not quite a neutral and not so bright … Read More about Coffee Break: Christa Basic Pump
Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Milly Ruffled Cotton Pique Jacket
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 … Read More about Splurge Monday’s TPS Report: Milly Ruffled Cotton Pique Jacket
Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Jersey Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’re liking the looks of this purple jersey dress from Maggy London. We like the ruching at the waist, the 3/4-length sleeves, and the black “buckle” at the waist. We’d wear it with a simple black camisole and some pearls. … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Jersey Dress
Coffee Break: Cole Haan OT Air Pump
You know, it has been far too long since we expressed our love for purple shoes. (Unless we’re crazy and we did it last week, in which case, our apologies.) They go with navy and black, they add a dose of funk (in a conservative way), and, in general, they’re great. We had not seen … Read More about Coffee Break: Cole Haan OT Air Pump
Thursday’s TPS Report: Admiral Shawl Cardigan
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’ve never been to a Martin & Osa store, but we’ve heard good things about its quality. Today we’re liking this cotton cardigan — we like the buttons on the placard, as well as the horizontal ribbing. We’d wear it … Read More about Thursday’s TPS Report: Admiral Shawl Cardigan

Wednesday’s TPS Report: Goat Suede Casual Jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’ve always admired women who can pull this look off — the casual yet professional leather jacket. We like the styling here — the scarf so close to the neck, the skirt to add some femininity. It’s available in sizes … Read More about Wednesday’s TPS Report: Goat Suede Casual Jacket
Tuesday’s TPS Report: Eileen Fisher Stand Collar Jacket
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’ve noticed this jacket about five times over the past four weeks, and we’re finally posting it. We like the loose, sweater quality (lambswool and cashmere), combined with the jacket vibe. We think we prefer the collar down, as Bloomingdales … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Eileen Fisher Stand Collar Jacket
Coffee Break: Crystal Two-Tier Necklace
We’ve been loving Ann Taylor’s accessories as of late, including this two-tier crystal necklace. We’d wear it in place of pearls with a simple boatneck — particularly against a richly-hued blouse like this one from Gap. It’s $58 at Ann Taylor. Crystal Two-Tier Necklace
