Light Up Your Look with a White Suit

I might have gotten a little too dressed up for my visit downtown today, but I’m feeling myself on Inauguration week. This look is inspired by Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris.

I will forever remember the iconic white suit she wore on November 7th, when she told the children of our country that “regardless of your gender, our country has sent you a clear message: Dream with ambition, lead with conviction, and see yourself in a way that others might not see you, simply because they’ve never seen it before.” She is a true boss lighting the way for women of color in this country, and I’m so here for it, and I’m here for a white suit period.

Part of what I love about fashion is how clothing can make a statement, speaking for you without a mention, but making a lasting impression. In a recent article for the New York Times, Vanessa Friedman describes the deliberate fashion statement Kamala Harris made when wearing a white Carolina Herrera pantsuit with a white silk pussy-bow blouse. She explains these are “garments that have been alternately fraught and celebrated symbols of women’s rights for decades, but which over the last four years have taken on even more potency and power.” More about the pro-femme symbolism of Kamala Harris’s outfit look to this fascinating article by Friedman.

Now let’s talk about this show-stopping White Tahari ASL Dress Suit I’m wearing.

This suit dress is amazingly affordable for how chic it looks. This could be a fantastic Boss Lady look for work, or even elevated enough to wear to a banquet or fundraiser. It fits true to size, and the slit and asymmetrical look make it more modern. The belt and pleated look give the illusion of a tighter waist.

Finishing off the Lewk

The Cuyana tote bag is perfect for bringing files to and from the courthouse or even toting a workout outfit around. The leather is beautiful and you can get it monogrammed. This one is in stone/blush.

These nude Jessica Simpson Prizma Patent d’Orsay Pumps are beautiful, but certainly not for comfort especially while walking downtown.
