Cape Suit Dreams...



Cape (C/O), Shirt, Pants - Eloquii, Sunglasses-Celine, Shoes-Similar










If you've been reading my blog for a while you know how I feel about a great suit. Maybe it's because I was raised in the eighties when the power suit was used by women to gain equality in with men in the workforce, maybe it's because all the women around me wore them constantly or it could be that I viewed my first big clothing purchase (a suit) as a symbol of my arrival into adulthood. Either way I love the chic, pulled together silhouette that a great suit creates, especially a pant suit. Suits often get a bad rap, with many people thinking that they aren't sexy and only for older women. I beg to differ, I think suites are extremely sexy if styled correctly.

A few weeks ago Eloquii posted this suit on their Instagram and I knew I had to have it. When I was in Miami for Art Basel, I paired it with my black crop top, but once I returned to cooler temperatures I added my cream neck tie blouse for a slightly dressier look. Both looks made me extremely happy! My best friend said I was giving her Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface vibes (yessssss). This look is perfect for all of those holiday extravaganzas from Christmas to New Years.

    1. Thank you Tandrika! I appreciate that. Well you will have something to look forward too when you get older and look for drapey swing jackets or capes that give you more room than the average jacket.
