[quote=Anonymous]I have dressed this way my whole life.  It's important to make sure you don't veer to the frumpy (harder for me since I am older).  I wear a lot of twin sets, cashmere, plain jeans (no true religion or anything flashy), straight skirts, pumps, flats, driving mocs, jack rogers.  I love Lilly but not all of it fits me well so I am selective in what I wear (and when I wear it).  Agree on the coats, although not sure I would start there.  I have a Burberry trench that I got in 1984 that is still perfect.  Also a Burberry black classic wool coat.  And the obligatory quilted jacket.  The key is to avoid flashy branded things.  While Lilly and Jack rogers are easily recognized, they don't have big logos.  Burberry has gotten kind of flashy so you have to be careful (plaid lining is okay, plaid exterior is not).

Places to shop - J Crew, J. McLaughlin, Lilly, Vineyard Vines, Brooks Bros, Talbots, Ralph Lauren.  I've gotten some nice stuff from Boden.  And some great plain Tshirts from Gap.[/quote]
