I may be a day behind, yet these remain stylish in my fashion dictionary:
Pantsuit by Giorgio Armani, Necklace by Janis by Janis Savitt
Love the silhouette.
I’m a huge fan of a mannish outfit like above, especially with a touch of feminism illustrated by the precious pearls resting on a beautifully tailored black pant suit.
Sweater and Skirt by Vera Wang, Necklace by Roxanne Assoulin for Lee Angel
Navy blue and bright orange are a perfect match made in heaven; Seriously diggin’ the combination these days. The green/orange necklace and the orange polish add final touches to the look, of course.
Blouse and Skirt by Prada, Headband by Jennifer Ouellette, Earrings and Necklace by Chopard, Bag by Yves Saint Laurent
I adore how elegant she looks here. The hair and makeup play a critical role.
Cardigan by Moncler, Shirt by Guess, Skirt by Alexander Wang, Bow by Diane von Furstenberg, Necklaces by Krizia
Lovin’ the red lips and the BOW!!! I wish I lived in a place where people don’t mind me running around in one! 
Dress by Dior
Ahhh— I have developed a deep affection towards this leopard print dress after gazing at it for weeks!!! It’s absolutely stunning. The shape, the collar, the pockets, the details, the fabric… pretty much everything about it. Again, her smokey eyes and side-swept curls instantly upgrade the look. Oh, and those leopard bangles are wonderful- definitely elevates the status from ‘beautiful’ to ‘unforgettable’.
