Wednesday’s TPS Report: DKNYC Short-Sleeve Dress with Elastic Belt
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.
You cannot go wrong with basic black, and this is nearly a perfect summer dress for an office cocktail party. The short sleeves give you coverage, while the wide v-neck adds some (ladylike) intrigue — and the on-seam pockets give you a place to stick your coatcheck stub or building pass. We'd probably swap out the belt for something more luxurious, and perhaps accessorize with a brooch and some colorful pumps. It's $129 at Macy's. DKNYC Short-Sleeve Dress with Elastic Belt
