wwkw during a blizzard?

As you may have noticed, I’m a bit behind on posting.  Last week during the so-called blizzard (it only snowed a few inches in the city… puhlease), everyone who actually showed up to work wore jeans.  I must’ve missed that memo but no matter, because I was looking for the perfect opportunity to wear the beatiful jacket my mom had bought me for Christmas.  Handmade in the South of France, one-of-a-kind, the blizzard was the perfect day for it.  Isn’t it a gorgeous piece?  My mom has such great taste and knows me so well!

It’s a perfect mix and match item too; it can be worn with long pants or jeans, with a black skirt and purple tights, as a fall coat, open or closed… so versatile and so unique.  Thanks again mom!

These are the types of items that I feel are ok to spend more money on (even though in this case it happened to be a gift): they’re well-made, good quality, different, unique, something that you can probably hold on to for a long time.

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.
