When I’m feeling sartorially — or otherwise — uninspired, I like to look to real girls for inspiration. I met WhoWhatWear co-founder Hillary Kerr at a Barney’s/NARS event recently, and her ladylike style really stood out. It was pretty, cool and effortless, not to mention versatile (couldn’t you see wearing this to work, brunch or for a date night out?).
What may look like a jewel-collar dress is actually a simple tee (from American Apparel, if I recall correctly) paired with a statement necklace, pretty pumps, a chainstrap crossbody bag, and a tiered but tailored skirt that highlights Hillary’s tiny waist and hourglass figure. Not to mention a cocktail ring that was a great conversation piece.
The ring is by Luv AJ, a cool jewelry line that was created by former WhoWhatWear intern Amanda Thomas. Obviously, these girls have style in spades.
Do you also love this ladylike-cool look? Where do you turn when you don’t feel like getting out of your PJs and need a little inspiration?
