Wednesday’s TPS Report: Black Cowl Neck Dress by Kate

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 like this organic cotton dress from eDressMe.com — the high neckline, the cap sleeves, the knee-length skirt — all very acceptable for work, but with the comfort (and sense of well-being) one gets from wearing organic cotton. A cowl neck can be slightly hard to accessorize with; we'd wear it with a colorful wrap if we were cold, small earrings, and a non-jangly bracelet. It's on sale, too — 20% off for Mother's Day. It's now $144 (was $180). Black Cowl Neck Dresses by Kate
