Suit of the Week: Theory Novelty Suit

We like this “novelty” jacket from Theory. We like the wool-linen blend, which strikes us as unusual but great for unpredictable weather. We especially like the steel-gray color of it; it’s strong yet feminine. We would wear it with a more structured shirt than the one shown here — perhaps a simple tee-shirt in white or a royal blue. The jacket (Theory Novelty Blazer) is now $276 at Saks.com (was $395); the pants (Theory Novelty Pants) are available for $206.50 (were $295). Don’t forget the Saks sale, going on — you can get gift cards worth anywhere from $25 – $450, depending on how much you spend.![]() |

Not kosher for passover.
VERY cute.
Agreed – that’s a beautiful suit. Wish I wasn’t on such a tight budget.
