Safari Chic

This is probably the closest you’ll ever see me to rocking a suit nowadays.  Wide leg trousers (preferably in linen for spring/summer), a super graphic tee (totally going tribal), a wide vintage belt (another FAB score from the Long Beach Flea), and a shrunken jacket ALWAYS does the trick.  As an interior designer, I’m able to get really creative with business casual ensembles substituting crisp button-ups for crazy patterns or simple blazers for suede and velvet counterparts.  Clients almost seem to expect innovation and imaginative ideas; first from my wardrobe and then on paper as it pertains to their project.  It’s a 24/7 job, this designing…and I couldn’t imagine it any other way.
 

{Guess Suede Jacket (old, similar HERE and HERE), Forever 21 Tribal blouse, Vintage necklace/belt/sunnies (all from Long Beach Flea Market), Level 99 Wide leg trousers, Rebecca  Minkoff bag similar HERE}

I love you "suit"! I actually have to wear real suits to work and absolutely hate it! There's only so many ways to get creative with it before crossing the [corporate] line.
But you look fabulous in your version!
