Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
As we mentioned last Friday, cuff links are something well worth spending a bit of money on if you enjoy wearing shirts with French cuffs. Although you can get nice cuff links for under $50-$100 easily, sometimes it pays to go for something a bit iconic. Our choice for this Monday's splurge? The Elsa Peretti Bean cuff links, available at Tiffany's for $265. Simple, fluid, feminine — gorgeous. Elsa Peretti Bean cuff links

I was on a search for affordable and beautiful cuff links a few years ago when I stumbled upon Forzieri. Forzieri has many wonderful options, the cuff links are very well designed, and they can bring a much needed splash of color to an otherwise boring outfit – all while staying classy and classic.

Love Elsa Peretti’s stuff, so classy. I have one of her gold hearts-and-chain bracelets and a gold diamonds-by-the-yard bracelet, wear them everywhere.
I think that as you progress in your career it can work well to have a signature look, or piece. A penchant for artsy cufflinks can coexist with very conservative outfits, or add some weight to an edgy look.
Ugh. I’m sorry, but I’ve hated the “bean” since I first saw it. I get that it’s a “signature” but it is not attractive, IMO.
