10th Commandment: July 22

Jul 22, 2014

Who doesn’t get excited about inexpensive work basics?  This week, the morning post will feature work basics with under-$100 prices.

I tried on a few things at the Anniversary Sale this weekend.  These suiting pieces are a great buy at this price.  The quality is as good or slightly better than Banana Republic’s pieces.

Halogen also makes a suit in a brown weave (blazer and skirt).  They also make a basic black suit (blazer and skirt).

Also, if you missed the Halogen seamed pencil skirt that I mentioned in Friday’s post, it’s definitely worth a look.  I bought it in the berry and the teal.  A very well-made item for $46.

Plus-size? I would look at Macy’s first.  They have a good selection of suit pieces from various brands that fall in the under-$100 price range thanks to the sale.
