This is a trend that comes & goes year after year...and this year, its going strong, and I'm loving it!
Women borrow from menswear season after season in some form or another.
Being a businesswoman, who attends meetings, trade shows, networking events, I'm always looking for 'serious' clothes to wear, which don't dilute my personal style, or personality.
I find putting on a suit makes me feel empowered, and adding in a tie or vest now & then mixes it up. I have a pair of white high waisted tux pants, which I plan to wear at a networking event next month.
I like to keep my shoes and accessories pretty feminine to balance the look....or add a feminine color like pink (see Julia Roberts below). Or do a whole suit in color, if you're brave! White suits are hot for spring & summer!
ANY body shape can sport a suit. Jacket length is what matters. Also, to add interest, try different pant styles: skinny, straight, wide leg, high waist, etc.
Next time you have somewhere to go....SUIT UP!
