Ooh, you guys rock! You've given me lots of cool ideas and resources...feel free to keep 'em coming
It's funny today I spent a good amount of time at both Nordstrom's and Neiman Marcus. I used to only go to Macy's, but it was fun to expand my horizons. Both "N" stores had great customer service and friendly people working there! I was amazed, but not surprised.
I'd love a biker type of jacket...more heavy cotton type and pair it with feminine stuff I own already for my casual look.
Also, trench coat is something I'm shopping for too! I am thinking of a coral or a red one...I own way too many black or navy coats and clothing. The brighter color will contrast my dark hair nicely.
I need a couple of pairs of dress slacks, a pair of nicer jeans (Lucky look really cute, but are they comfy I wonder?), a couple of dresses...
I've been making a collage of my personal style so I can take it when I go to a personal shopper...So many people don't know that exists! I had forgotten...Back in my legal profession days, I used the personal shoppers many times!
I vascillate between wanting to be up to date in style and wanting to have solid timeless style...I guess you can have it all...I am so ecclectic
I need to find what I like...I know what I don't like LOL...I saw that whole safari style and it's not really me...And, OMG, jumpsuits are coming back in *gasp*...Ok, I'll stop complaining and focus on what makes me happy

I love my Lucky jeans. They are not cheap, but so comfortable! I love the way they sit on my hips. And the denim is so high quality. I don't know what it is, but they are the most comfortable jeans I've ever owned. I plan to buy a few more pairs, for sure! Buy a pair and bring them home. You will not want to take them off!
Did you go to Jcrew? They always have a few things I like. For spring a summer, linen shirts and paints are a must! I love linen shirts. I always have a few white ones, different styles, to throw on with any pair of pants. Put on a cute cardigan, and you are good to go!
I bought a pair of JCrew white linen pants on sale last year for $35 and wore them everywhere. I love clothes. I love, love, love to shop.
My one big fantasy is to be able to go on wild shopping sprees and not have to worry about how much everything costs. But alas, I must search for the bargains, which can be a lot of work. *sigh*
Great blog! I'm going today to buy the 8 hour cream!
To the OP, I think a cute pencil skirt paired with a tailored white blouse would fit your retro style and possibly go with something in your shoe collection. What about the wrap dresses. I've noticed a lot of them for spring and the shape is similar to retro dresses and yet the style is flattering AND comfortable. I was recently in BCBG and saw a few updated classic looks.

And I love love love the boots that are in fashion right now over the jeans...or with a skirt...It is a great look for night or day..(well it isn't such a new look but I still love it). If you have a slender waist you may be able to wear the longer style tops too & also the bohemian tops as well. Definitely go in with some photos to a personal shopper. Have fun!!!
As far as jeans go not sure of your shape but Sevens, Paige & Buffalo jeans also look good on me.
Where do they sale Seven Jeans? I've wanted to try them.
