Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Yes, yes, we’ve seen this blazer before.

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Oooh: cute lightweight “tweed” dress from Banana Republic.

Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. I really like this A-line pleat skirt from Lafayette 148 New York.
