Tuesday’s TPS Report: Smitten Longsleeve Pointed Front Cardigan

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. (We're switching things up a wee bit this week because of the holiday.) The shawl cardigan is all the rage, and we like that this white cotton one — perfect for layering in the chilly air-conditioned summer months — has a tie front and an ever-so-slight empire waist. Available in black and white at CoutureCandy.com for $128 (it's down to $102 with code “20Day”). Smitten Longsleeve Pointed Front Cardigan
