Issue #3 — Camel-Colored Cat Walk
The Girl is back at your service for outfit inspiration and styling tips, each week featuring a different store. Spend enough time with The Girl, and you will move beyond focusing on *what* you wear to *why*. Scroll down to read this issue.
OCCASIONS
Giving a presentation at your company (or to one of your hipper/more casual clients); first day of work; networking, hitting multiple Thanksgiving parties, some with family, some not; traveling by plane or train and needing to be comfortable but also presentable when you land.
VIBE
Low effort with high returns; mainstream with a clear nod to sartorial sense; chic, put-together, professional, powerful in its simplicity.
DO’S / DON’TS
Gestalt theory is evident in this outfit, where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. There is no shame in relying on faithful outfits like these when some of your creative juices for the day need to be used elsewhere. Pairing textures like knits and pleather is the professional version of being edgy.
STYLING
Natural makeup with lighter colors will brighten your face, which is required for the outfit’s neutral palette. Wearing too dark of eyeliners and lipsticks overload the deep tones that are already plentiful in the tops, bottoms, and shoes.
