OK, so we’re not sold on the name (they couldn’t come up with anything better than “3023 Drawstring Tote”?) but we like the look of this product. Love the vertical stripes of alternating leathers, as well as the nice size — it’s 15.25″ high, 14.25″ wide, and 3″ deep, with an 8″ shoulder drop. Also … Read More about Coffee Break: High Fashion Tote
The scooped neckline is flattering, while the pleats from the empire waist strikes us as new — it almost seems like a modern rendition of a Joan dress on Mad Men.
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We are loving this sleeveless cowl knit shirt — it strikes us as elegant and stylish, but still totally appropriate for the office — we particularly like the scarf-like quality to the cowl. It’s available in eggplant (pictured), “dark walrus” … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Sleeveless Cowl Knit Shirt
Reader Z wrote in to us about these lovely flats: “I just got these in today, and they’re beautiful! I have the black – it’s subtle and work appropriate for people who can wear flats, and the quality is amazing. Can’t beat the price.” Nice! The purple/brown (pictured) strikes us as an interesting shoe to … Read More about Coffee Break: Lacoste Women’s Belvoir 150 Flat
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Today we’re liking this slightly unusual dress from Plenty by Tracy Reese, which, we think, is conservative enough to be worn to the office. We like the wrap around the front, the high neckline, and the softness of the jersey. … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: Speckled Ink Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. Today’s dress was recommended by reader A, who notes: “I just ordered this dress and love the simple but flattering cut. It’s also long enough for work & fabric can be hand washed/machine washed (though it says dry clean). Would … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: ‘Ultimate Weave’ Dress
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We’re liking this interesting Tory Burch dress, recently reduced at Bloomingdale’s. We’d wear it with neutral shoes and, perhaps, white or silver accessories for springtime. Was $395, now $276 (size medium only); use code FFMARCH at checkout for another 20% … Read More about Tuesday’s TPS Report: ‘Jereni’ Silk Dress
We’re loving this purple belt from Melamed today. We particularly like the deep, eggplant color. We might try it worn over a heather gray cardigan, perhaps with a navy pencil skirt. Available in sizes S and M at Bluefly.com for $87 (was $175). Melamed purple patent leather ‘Demi’ belt (L-0)
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
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
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
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We like this merino wool top by Antonio Melani. We love the detail around the neckline (which looks more sophisticated to us than a simple ruffle, but hey) and the vibrancy of the violet — and we generally like a … Read More about Bargain Friday’s TPS Report: Antonio Melani ‘Kay’ Knit Top
