Navy Seal

Chic, chic, chic! I don't think I've ever worn something like this, but I loved it. The clean navy on navy is understated and wonderfully monochrome. The outfit gets a Blaga like pop of iridescence with the accessories. After all, I said clean and chic, not flat and boring. This boyfriend coat is my new fave winter purchase. It's a gem from Carven that I found at Century 21. I felt it was a tad roomy at the store, then decided I'd embrace the loose fit. Over this easy Theory sweater dress, the coat becomes an essential part of a strong, ladylike look. I felt like a businesswoman dashing to a meeting. Pretty and powerful👊🏻.

The gold gloves against the navy was fabulously regal. Love those gold foil Norma Kamali gloves from her current season! Nothing I'm wearing here is the same designer, yet it's all pulled together by using a couple of the same fashion principles. Start with pairing two pieces together in the same color family. That's your foundation. Then just jazz it up with accessories that have personality, whether it's a bright, fun colored purse, or a statement shoe that will liven things up. Classy by no means has to mean conservative. Lady B doesn't do conservative, it's just not my thing. I look at this ensemble as a metaphor for me trying to hold my tongue and choose silence...Right before I burst and run my big mouth off with whatever two cents I must add👄👄. "I really just want to hang out with quiet, boring people with no opinions", said NO ONE EVER. Wavy Navy👋🏻, LB
