Frugal Friday Work Wear Report: Frilly, Embroidered

Our casual workwear reports recommend work-appropriate one-pieces at a range of prices.

I really love the color of this “raspberry tart” blouse from Old Navy. This deep pink is (almost) universally flattering, and the embroidery and ruffle trim adds something extra to the party.

Finding 100% cotton tops that fit the Frugal Friday price range isn’t always easy, but Old Navy seems to have a few available this season. If you’re trying to stick with natural ingredients on a budget, I’d take a look too. this bottle green long sleeve blouse or this slub braided henley. Anything goes nicely under a sweater jacket for a casual business outfit.

Blouse It’s $44.99 full at Old Navy – 35% off at checkout – and is available in regular sizes XS–4X and long sizes XS–XXL. It also comes in white.
