This is the look I put together today on Polyvore. It’s feminine and sophisticated, with a slightly tough look from the Jean-Michel Cazabat shoes and the Bally black leather bag. You can wear the arm warmers with the short sleeve knit top when it gets colder and then add the short coat if the arctic winds are blowing.

Makeup should be kept neutral, in this case, gray with a punch of color in the cheeks (see MAC palette below). MAC has a vast collection of shades to suit any skin tone and the prices are reasonable compared to other department store brands. They also have the funkiest packaging.
