  18. I'm in love with Isaac Mizrahi. I want a tulip skirt so bad. I will date myself here but I went thru the era of the Alli McBeal miniskirt suit. I owned 5 of them. Ah those were the days....when a high heel was a mere 3 inches. LOL!

  29. CC, my dear, I loved this post!
    As a corporate woman (sometimes by force ;), I love to have inspiration for dressing up for that occasion rather than just for fun. Or inspiration for dressing up in a suit for more fun times???

    The Rachel Roy pre-fall caught my eye. What a delight! Will need to experiment with a grey marle suit and lots of ruching/folding/tucking ;)

    Hope you're having a fantastic weekend.

  37. I love the silhouette of the Alexander Wang look, but I'm not sure suits are the thing for me. Maybe when I'm older...

    ReplyDelete

  50. I knew pants suits would come back, I just knew it!! I am fawning over the ankle looks like that Narciso Rodriguez(?) sleeveless blazer with pants and then the buttonless Christie fit!!! Electric blue never makes anything boring either.
