posted on

I can already hear you, “Yes, of course grey flannel is appropriate for work, but leather? Full leather?” Well, most Washington DC workplaces may not be ready for a full leather suit, but you could definitely get away with a chic dress or blazer in a subdued color. Work in NY or LA? Well then anything goes, right? Skirt suits with a double breasted menswear blazer are all the rage this season. The long, lean lapels will create a waist while the looser silhouette that is in fashion will cover anything you don’t want to show. Now that’s a good …
