I love a good tweed. When employed properly, it’s always a classic. This dress is a fun twist on the classic, in that it’s sleeveless and has that great detailing and seaming at the shoulders. I love the high neckline, full lining and hidden back zipper. I’m a little concerned that the length might be too short for some of the lucky longer-limbed Corporettes out there, so to them I’d say save this for fall/winter and pair it with some opaque tights (but not in a “opaque tights make *everything* ok!” way) and kitten heels. I’d also wear the dress with a simple blazer or cardigan and, of course, some pearls. MICHAEL Michael Kors Fringe Tweed Dress Black 2

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.
We’re loving this fabulous sculpted jacket and flattering skirt from Dior. It’s oh so elegant, bu still professional and serious, and those pockets are seriously fun and flattering (look how tiny her waist looks!) We also love the little details, like the silk lining. The jacket (Sculpted Fringe Jacket
) is $2,750, and the skirt (Front-Slit Skirt
) is $890.

Wow — gorgeous tweed jacket from St. John’s. We love the fit of it, the delicate fringe outlining the collar, and the simple black buttons. We’d wear it, most likely, as shown — with black trousers and a black top.
It’s $1295 at Saks.com (free shipping if you use code SeptShip9). St. John – Fringe-Trim Tweed Knit Blazer
