I talked with Helen Martin Brachy about how to
make a good impression.
The reason I like this is because it has a
solid color jacket and for a little creativity
you'll see it has a plaid skirt.
So the scarf is just tucked in just a little
bit to give it that oomph.
Another thing that you might wear with that is
a vest.
It's a wonderful look and it's a nice solid color.
It's brick so that adds the third color.
At the same time you'll want a bag.
I like this bag because if you're carrying a
briefcase or if you're carrying your little
calendar then you have an option of a strap.
Remember your shoe.
You can do a little higher heel than this but
it should be solid and it should be a
well tailored shoe.
Also your leg.
This is not the time to wear those fashion colors.
You save that for those swanky parties.
This is the time to wear a natural leg.
As Helen says, it's in the details that you win
or lose.
How much money could you or should you spend to
achieve this look?
Diane Evans, the manager of Talbot's in Dallas says.
We have blazers that are about $175, blouses at
about $50 and a good skirt for another $75.
With those three basic pieces to start and some
other things, you really would have a
very flexible wardrobe.
