This post may contain affiliate links and Corporette® may earn commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices. We begin the week in splurge mode, with our most expensive suggestions, and wind our way to Friday, where a less expensive item of clothing might be just what you need to make it to the weekend. If you've recently seen a great work piece you'd like to recommend to the readers, please e-mail editor@corporette.com with “TPS” in the subject line.
Nicole Miller is having some great sales at the moment on a ton of beautiful dresses, including this lovely sheath dress. We love the triple belt detail, the darts, and this dark navy color (although it is available in black as well). We also really like the price — now $172 (from $345).

Wow. That tripple belt is not only stylish, but gives a nice, defined waste. There’s also something a little more on the badass side about all those buckles….
Very nice. I wish I looked better in sheath dresses but they make my arms look like drumsticks and I’m not overweight.
Can you suggest a reasonably priced piece to wear over this? I would love to wear this around the office, but the bear shoulders just won’t fly and I can’t think of any of my current cardigans or jackets that would work on top.
“defined waste”? “bear shoulders”? I know it’s just the internet, but this is a blog aimed at professional women!
don’t forget “trippled”
Am I the only one who thinks those buckles whisper “bondage”?
If not, I hope “defined waste” was intentional.
Sorry, Michelle. I caught that right after I posted (while on a conference call). Harvard needs to give me a refund!
jojo, it is not just you. “bondage-y” was the first thing i thought as well.
This is a pretty dress, the cut is clean, yet still striking.
However, I’m not into reversed charmeuse. It must be a trend I don’t get. Charmeuse is a gorgeous fabric, if you don’t want the sheen side to show, use a different fabrication.
Its so thin, serious shapewear would have to be worn.
Michelle,
What’s wrong with defining your waist at work?! Bare arms…eh…I see your point.
anon – Michelle was just criticizing spelling, not content.
