Printed suits? ....Yes.

While out shopping for my new spring wardrobe I found myself paused in front of an all-over printed blazer and bottom set, and I thought.... should I?  My inclination for my actual (not fantasy wish-list) wardrobe is to stay simple, classic and make sure it fits perfectly.  So, those things considered, the answer is: Yes. The same rules apply to this new trend, which I believe is here to stay, but we must choose carefully.  

The trick is to go with a print that works for you and your personality.  We don't want you looking like a trend victim....Your floral suit should be just that.  If you generally wear preppy clothes, go with a lighter color, airier floral.  If you are more of a vamp, find one which is dark and sultry, with some shine in the fabric.  

The good news is, there are so many options at every price point, you are bound to find the one which "suits" you (sorry, couldn't resist).  Final thought: As spring and summer begin, and Fridays and Mondays become unofficially, more optional, these suits will be my best friend.  Worn together to work, all I need is an overnight bag, white t-shirt, pair of solid shorts, killer sling-back mules, bikini et voilĂ ! Weekend bound!  Suits, in order, by: Celine, Tory Burch, Warehouse, Roberto Cavalli, Christian Louboutin, and Marc Jacobs.
