There is a lovely iconic fashionista named Iris Apfel who said: "When you don't dress like everybody else, you don't have to think like everybody else." Ever since I read that I have strived to try bolder mixes like here with this classic leopard outer wear with cuffed skinny jeans and poppy red pumps. A seed bead tangle of a bangle and another classic piece of Michael Kors dr bag. Gotta have big glasses because they're the wink at dear Iris.

Heathered jersey knit top with elongated back with black, wide legged pant is comfy-casual and when popped with shades of poppy and gold, this look gets a perkey feel. Carry this great tote full of personality and quiet class.

Thursday isn't casual Friday but neither is is Formal Monday. Grey goes well with yellow but we are going to bronze it in an elegant countdown of classic drapey boat neck top in a cozy fabric with a ruffled scarf as accessorie. These top a pinstripe wide leg crop of an ankle pant. It's a bootie with peep toes that matches our pinstripe subtly. Textured like straw, the Michael Kors doctor bag keeps us feeling good. The feather bracelet for whimsey and the fabulous leather and fur lined coat will come in handy if we work late and there is a chill in the evening air.

Silky neutral top with criss-cross back straps is worn beneath neutral jacket of flowy crepe material with large lapel posie. White jean walking sharts plant this outfit firmly in casual territory. Drop earrings with creamy rose stones mingle with rose quartz ring with bling. Wedge leopard booties team with leather messenger bag. The entire outfit is neutral, feminine and classy in appeal.
