Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Jon cream, faux antique silk peplum jacket, Energie black velvet tank top, L.E.I Denim capri’s, Viamaestra beige suede and snakeskin pumps, and Dolce & Gabbana ‘yellow banana’ canvas bag with lime green leather trim. Her wayfarer shades are by Etro and brass hoop earrings and bangles complete the look.  


 
Today was a good day. I got up this morning before the clock alarmed, left the house five minutes earlier than usual so I strolled to the train (opposed to “hot stepping”), received anxiously awaited responses to two very important emails, was highly productive despite the urge to ‘relax’,  got time for a  quick swim, and………it’s Friday!! 
Note: While there's no actual 'policy' posted, if there are no clients scheduled, my company practices Dress Down Friday - jeans are fine. My thoughts: just because you're wearing jeans, doesn't mean you should go to work looking as if you're getting ready to clean house!!

Tip: The peplum jacket, blouse, dress, skirt, which is all the rave right now, is the perfect uber feminine piece. It put's me in mind of the 18the Century "bustle".............

  1. Lol, sooooo true! I own three pairs of jeans, and two of them have "getting ready to clean the house" written all over it. Pathetic, I know, I'm gonna work on that :)

  3. This is one of my favorites Aikasha, casual yet professional enough to wear to the office. Plus you know how to combine different styles so well, you make them work!
