CITYist

Dress a gal in a blazer and we call it a menswear-inspired look. Lop off the lapels and suddenly we’re in ladylike territory. It’s inexplicable, but there is something about a collarless jacket that has us dying to have a tea party and adopt the curtsey as our official greeting to the world. Transition into autumn with a lightweight lady jacket with at least one head-turning detail. We’re loving some metallic studs and sparkling sequins to take this look everywhere, from the office to the nightclub -not that a lady would ever be caught getting her grind on…
