It’s amazing how a few secondhand and clearance rack pieces can make an outfit. In preparation for a casual business meeting last Friday morning, I pulled together a few of my latest deeply-discounted purchases and combined them with a few of my regulars. The result was a coolly-composed ensemble with a couple exceptional details, more than appropriate for business chat over coffee and muffins. Scroll down for outfit particulars, as you may be pleasantly surprised by the prices.
