Day Wear


Suit - Tahari Arthur S / Blouse - Stella McCartney / Purse - Saint Laurent / Pumps - Diane Von Frustenberg / Pearls - Carolle

In a mint, twin-set suit, this look takes power dressing to pastels and I don't know about you but I'm loving it. To ensure a contemporary look, the suit must be really well fitted, highlighting the natural waist. Accessorizing simply with a white purse and pearls, this look is perfect for the office.

Evening Wear

Dress - Zac Posen / Fur stole - Coast Clarissa / Pumps - L.K. Bennet / Purse - Unknown / Necklace - Van Cleef & Arpels / Earrings - Shamballa Jewels

This outfit takes vintage evening wear to a whole new level for me - I adore it. It's the evening, so as advised I've accessorized with diamonds (even the purse is rhinestone encrusted). The fur stole also adds an interesting element, a sort of primadonna vibe. 

Be sure to come back tomorrow for my post of surprises! 

Love Claire, xo.
