The Office Drama!

For most of us the weeknights are spent out to dinner with clients, at the gym or in front of the computer. But some nights you are lucky enough to take advantage of all that NYC has to offer and feed the soul. Last night my friend Anna and I, along with our hubbies saw Death of a Saleman . Run don't walk to get tickets, they are amazing! Anna's work outfit transitioned beautifully into a classy theater look. 

I love the all black outfit i a few short week we will all be in pastel so why not get black out of our systems

Notice the fun accesories, they make her look so cool (the double band mutli color watch, and funky large glasses)

 I love that the top is not solid black, makes it so much more interesting. Also notice the buttons on the skirt and the clasp on the pearl necklace - they work together beautifully!

Thanks Anna!!

Working on Wall Street but inspired by Main Street

Its amazing how you can find inspiration anywhere and everywhere! I was walking home from work and took a detour to look for inspiration on Fifth Avenue. I was counting on the window displays to do the trick but inspiration struck me in an unusual way. Walking towards me was a woman wearing a long camel wool coat. In her hand, swinging by her side she carried a Sephora bag. The color combination was amazing! It looked something like this (please forgive the amateur photo editing) …

Camel, Black and White is classic and gorgeous but the stripes elements give it something extra. Here are the pieces I would use to pull together an outfit:

If you are heavier on top balance out the top half with camel pants and break up the stripes -which can have a widening effect- with a black blazer.

All 3 pieces from Zara

If you are heavier on the bottom keep our pants or skirt black and add the pattern and lighter color to your top half.
