IN:
well-fitted jackets. make sure it’s proportioned well for you body too. If you are short, wear a short style that stops near your hips. It will make your legs look longer. Most everyone can pull off the longer jackets if it’s fitted. Slim fitting pants are in order for a long jacket. You don’t want to look in the mirror and start having flash backs of “hammer-time”.

This blue jacquard number is by Free People which several of our Haute Market friends carry, as well as Nordstroms.

IN:
platform shoes.
I go for the wider heel with platform shoes to keep me a bit more balanced. Sergio Rossi Patent Leather Platform Sandal, $850. You can pre-order this style from the Nordstrom Fall 2008 collection and be totally “IN”, but possibly broke. Also seen a lot on the scene is this bondage-style design. Notice the zippers. Remember Carrie Bradshaw’s shoes in the Sex and the City Movie, by Chanel? Bondage babe. Wide straps and lots of them.

For a less expensive version, try Lovemyshoes.com when you’ll find these GUESS brand sexy round-toe shoes with criss-cross straps and crocodile embossed leather with 4.5″ heel for $99.98.
