Bobbie

I nominate Bobbie for "best dressed" on Friday.  With a foundation of dark skinny jeans and a white tank, she added a classic wear-anywhere blazer, black patent pumps, a statement bag, and pearls (OK, the pearls happen to be Chanel which are fab, but you could do this look with almost any long pearl or chain necklace).  Slightly disheveled hair and natural makeup relax the look overall.

Some people asked me how many accessories you can wear at once (on Saturday I had on dangly earrings, a long necklace and 2 bracelets), and Bobbie is a great example of how to do the right mix of jewelry - big gold watch on one wrist, big gold cuff on the other, and her pearls.  Like in many other aspects of design, working in threes and fives is usually best.
