The Midlife Fashionista: work clothes

Misook and Taryn Rose

Two incredible lines deserve to be worn together...Taryn Rose meet Misook.

When Taryn Rose and Misook asked me to collaborate on a blog, I knew the two needed to be worn together as both lines offer comfort, style and quality.

This tweed Misook jacket in cherry red, black and caramel is so fabulous. It's lightweight and can be worn pretty much all year round and it goes with everything! Here I'm showing more of a business look but you could also pair it with a little black dress (great basic dress-under $100!) or even jeans or leggings!
Here are some other Misook jackets I love HERE (love the fringe!) HERE and HERE .

The color is so vibrant--it feels "happy".

Necklace and bracelet from Chic Consignment.

Metal cuff $25

Pendant $25

This outfit would be so perfect for a business meeting...especially paired with a large bag to store a computer.

Pulcati leather and calf-hair tote from Chic Consignment $149.

And these boots!! Can we please talk about these Taryn Rose Fortuna boots!

They are pricey but an OMG are they amazing!

The suede is so buttery soft and they're incredibly comfortable.

Taryn Rose knows how to make shoes that women can walk in!

Their "Camille" boots are priced less--check out the olive color! DROOL

These ponte cropped ankle pants from Peach are amazingly comfy and I love the length (plus they're pull-on hurray!).

Rushing around here in my hometown of Andover, MA.

Rushing is all I seem to do these days!

When did life get so crazy busy?

Have a wonderful RELAXED day!

Working it

Dayton Home

Several weeks ago my photographer Cathy and I spent the day at Dayton Home in Wellesley, MA shooting for The Midlife Fashionista. Store owner, Lyn Dayton, was so welcoming and accommodating. She moved furniture around, gathered props and even brought us iced tea.

I can see why her customers love her!

I saw how hard Lyn works so I thought I'd pitch in and help her out..."hello, Dayton Home".

OK I didn't actually work, but I do want to give you some work outfit inspiration. A fabulous pair of fitted black pants is a wardrobe staple. I adore these Anna Vo slim cut pants from Dresscode because they're super comfortable, mid-rise and don't wrinkle. I love the length too--they hit at just the right spot to work for heels or flats and can take you from day to night. Take a trip over to Dresscode (special "Susan" discount for mentioning I sent you.) You can also order online.

Every great work outfit needs a silk blouse (that's easy to layer), classic pumps and a leather portfolio to make you look super polished at meetings.

Have a great week everyone!

About Susan

What does midlife look like? Whatever you want it to! Welcome to my blog, where I share about style, beauty, and lifestyle for those who agree that age has no limits. While health and wellness play an essential role, I believe looking your best helps you feel your best, regardless of where you are on your journey. I also believe when women support and encourage one another, we all benefit, which is why I founded Uncommon Threads, a nonprofit, and co-founded Kicking Cancer in Heels, a community aimed at empowering women impacted by cancer. I hope you’ll follow my experiences on social media.
