This is for Lisap, as I am her tonal and attitudinal opposite today. To her multi-shades-of-grey maximal look, I am in navy and black minimalism. I am dressed for comfort (with style, I hope) and for travel after a day's work, although since I am now readying for the evening flight (Detroit to San Diego) I have swapped out my Reiss jacket for Lululemon gear.

Adidas running shoes
JCrew black Tippi sweater
Reiss ink blazer
New black vegan travel tote bought on Bainbridge Island (Seattle), which I LOVE. Big enough for my Air, files, Nook, and personal items, without looking business-y. Because you know I'm not all business. It also has a detachable zippered insert that can be worn with the tote's shoulder strap, as an instant little crossbody bag, negating the need to pack a purse. LOVE that.

Finally, I thought I'd add a photo inspiration. Although I did not think of her when I dressed, these 1997 photos of Princess Diana are to me THE reason blondes should wear ink, and also, to me, her most beautiful moments. I held on to this issue of Vanity Fair for years because I could not stop looking at her.

PS Lisap, in addition to Women in Clothes, I started reading The Paying Guests, which I just downloaded from Barnes & Noble.
