The Little Drummer Girl


So they say the military look is in this season. I like it, but can I make a suggestion. Don’t over do it, only allow your self three classic items per super trend. Consider for this look a belt, a boot, and a jacket. Don’t buy a heavy coat in such and obvious trend. Heavy coats should be in classic timeless trends.

Spend wisely. It is never wise to buy cheap shoes unless they are flip flops or Keds. Beach wear and white shoes have a shorter life expectancy. Your trendy jacket should be less then $200 and will more likely cost you less then $100 if you know where to look. I limit this because although you’ll be fabulous this fall and winter you’ll want something new come spring. The shoe and the Jacket are the key pieces. Keep the boot below the knee and make the jacket light weight and versatile. The jacket makes a statement and you’ll want to keep it on in work or play. Visualize them both with pants, skirts and dresses. Make sure the hardware on both goes well together. Notice the little details. They keep you pulled together and fabulous. It is also necessary to keep the color of the boot and the jacket as close as possible. A small detail but a key point they should match! The belt should not. It should the same theme but a stand out color.

As for the jewelry buy options. I love the though of brass jewelry but why not some small or large trinket in Chinese red. Ponder this something yellow done right just might up your game. Always leave them wanting more ladies. My fashion philosophy: Keep it Classy. Simple and Unexpected!!!
