Come Sale Away: Online
The Stylephile once snorted at fashion that lacked utilitarian edge. What to do with a shrug or a capelet? Why 
bother with a clutch when you can get a hobo bag with a strap? Then, one day, we realized that those seemingly useless items (extra-wide belts, obis, brooches, etc.) are precisely what make an outfit sing. This mini jacket from Trina Turk is one that you might dismiss as A) covers nothing, B) won't keep me warm and C) not enough fabric to justify a splurge. Well, guess what? It is all of the above that make this chic burlap Dance jacket such a find. Ever wonder what to put atop a camisole to de-sluttify the look? Ah, the Dance jacket. Still trying to figure out how to add a whiff of femininity to those black skinny jeans? Dance, baby, dance. Best of all, this jacket is on sale for $164 (regularly $320) at Trina Turk.

The Stylephile is a potent cocktail of sweet and sour musings on the culture of keeping up appearances. Style should never be a humorless pursuit. Let style editor Caroline Ryder entertain you.
