winter wonderland of fabrics

One of the things I love most about winter is the array of fabrics available for wear.  They’re thick, sturdy, soft, envelopping.  And the colors are rich and warm. I bought this teal skirt (originally I thought it would be navy) from J. Crew with a coupon and since it arrived in the mail a few months ago, it’s been high on my wear-list each week.  I paired it with the soft draped neckline sweater and then with a studded belt and black heels, which I thought gave the whole look a bit of an edge.

Pencil skirts are so versatile because you can pair them with jackets, sweaters, long or short blazers, belts, you name it.

About

What would Krissie wear? Well, jeans, a really cute t-shirt and boots for one. But what I wear to work at my uber corporate, conservative New York City office is an entirely different story. But that doesn't mean it has to be boring. Welcome to my corporate wardrobe story: what I wear and how I do it for little money and lots of style.
