The 2012 Suiting Zoe-n

Rachel Zoe is showcasing a twist on suiting (what this blog is all about) in her Pre-Fall 2012, Fall 2012 and Resort 2013 collections.   

Playing up plaid (one of my fall favs)


The crop pant suit (a great look to show off a bold shoe)









A bold shoe like this looks great with a tight ankle pant as well as the crop pant!


and other fantastic twists on the classic suit...
 






The bolero jacket, full skirt (a fab twist on the pencil), and of couse the crop pant are great ways to a style to your traditional work look while keeping it appropriate.


To buy Rachel Zoe head to Neimans or Saks and be a trend setter in your workplace!
