[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this still fashionable? I remember a few years ago skinny jeans and a graphic tee with a black blazer and heels was really popular. Could you pull the look off with boyfriend jeans, flats , white tee and a navy blazer? Cute? Young? Dated?[/quote]

Dated. Yes, circa 1985.

I still like it, but would never wear it in a gazillion years.[/quote]

Most of the people wearing the looks publicist PP is referring to weren't even born in 1985, so it's probably not dated to them.

Publicist PP- what you don't get is this area is filled with moms with relatively serious jobs who do not dramatically change their look each year. Most of what we have in our closets is 2+ years old. Blazer with jeans is a classic look that has been and will be popular with most "normal", non-fashion types.  it's like saying pants are not in style. I'm sure your advice is great for younger people in more fashion-forward cities, but it's not good advice for regular people in a regular city.  I would be laughed at if I wore joggers or a satin bomber to work--it would look so out of place, like I was trying way too hard.  I think if you are in a city with a relatively conservative style of dress like ours, it's much easier for trendy clothes to go over the line of fashionable to "fashion victim" than in other places.[/quote]

NP.  True but why ask her for "fashion" advice at all or fight it tooth and nail when she doles out what IS the current style and trend.   If you want to stick with the no fashion/classic/conservative style and the old clothes in the closet that most DC moms like to wear than don't ask or at least not throw a fit when she answers the question.   You do you.   Some of us don't work in a conservative workplace and like fashion.[/quote]
