GIRLS I NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!
Permalink Closed


I need 3 super chic business outfits to meet with BCBG, Lacoste, Furla and other companies in NYC next week.  HELP! I don't want to spend a million dollars either.  Not sure how the weather in NY is right now, so please make it season appropriate lol

Thanks!!

Anna Wintour's outfit. I think it could work as a business outfit.

no idea, but as for the weather its unseasonable warm. It'll be in the mid-70s all through next week. Its also been sunny. In was in the high 80s this week, so things are pretty summery feeling (which is actually annoyign when trying to figure out what to wear- it's hot, but its fall so summer stuff just doesn't seem right)

Are the meetings all on different days or the same day? For the Lacoste meeting, it might be fun to wear one of their fitted polos under a sharp suit, maybe add a long beaded necklace.

Here are some of the BCBG outfits I like:

well, you could wear the same outfit or variations of the same outfit for all threee since they are at different places....

I would not necessarily wear their clothing - you want to exhibit a personal style (which I suppose could be done with their pieces, but I think it may come across as contrived - JMO)

how about a high waisted skirt?
alexander mcqueen - $203, theory - $195

with an interesting up-to-the-minute blouse (tucked in):
ella moss - $216, wayf - $187

and a jacket - theory - $355
Theory Cropped Jacket

and closed toe platform pumps in pewter
Twelfth St. - $390

I second D's suggestion.  That's what I was thining too.  Here are a few other ideas:

Nanette Lepore Enchantress Top & Mike Todd Pants Nanette Lepore Satin Blouse & Tweed Tulip Skirt

Nanette Lepore Chiffon Blouse & Tweed Trousers Nanette Lepore Ruffle-Front Top & Plaid Skirt

MARC by Marc Jacobs Velvet Jacket & Oxford Pants Rebecca Taylor Bow Jacket & Pencil Skirt (if you did wear a suit this is the kind to wear!-- stunning)


Nordstrom has a what to wear to work section and it has three options.  One of them is fashion forward.  I would look through that for inspiration.
