Fall Trends

Ladylike or Not Demure Enough?

The Blueprint for Style team loves this look: the rich camel color, the contrast piping around the jacket, the shiny top underneath, the above-the-knee length, and the jacket is ideal for anyone including plus-sizes.  But, we admit that the shiny bustier may not go over so well in more conservative environments?

Ladylike or more lady needed?!

  1. Love the suit – especially for a woman with warm (yellow-based) coloring, the classic camel color will serve her well for years.

    The shiny bustier would probably play very well in the creative or fashion community, not so well in banking, finance or a similar conservative industry.

    Love the black accents – I would also pair it with red, purple or another rich jewel tone, since my coloring (blue-based / cool) is much better with cool colors near my face.

    Now I’ve gotta go shop that suit – thanks for the tip!
