So Jackie O

Look of the Day!
When many hear the names Jackie O or Jackie Kennedy, they think "iconic fashion" before they think "first lady." She defined the classic look that many channel today. Here is an outfit I put together and is inspired by her timeless fashion sense. It has a modern spin with the Just Cavalli sunglasses and the slanted hemline of the dress. Jackie was a fan of Gucci bags, so of course I included one with this look. Any simple, classic black bag will do the trick. Not a fan of Brooches? Try some pearls instead.

All About The Classics

Look Of The Day:

The smartest pieces to buy are classic pieces. You can wear them to work. You can wear them to a nice dinner. You can wear them to the theater. The list goes on. And best of all, you will keep them for a long time because they won't go out of style. I love this outfit because it just screams classic and elegant. Every woman needs a classic pair of black sunglasses. The Hugo Boss ones below are perfect and a great deal at $59.99 when they are originally $120. The bracelet is a great way to add a little color and jazz it up a bit. And those Mary Jane shoes will probably go with a ton of things already in your closet! This outfit is full of smart buys you will use again and again!
