For the office so we went right to the source and -- -- and -- We're joined by Andrew Taylor no relation to a fictitious person that is not and -- but I'm sure that gets -- nice restaurant recommendations and reservations and everything else right they had -- yeah -- style director -- and Taylor.

And it's pretty profitable -- this year really is doing well if you've billionaire international brands many stores.

Good sales -- this is like the icon firm went to where work must dealers -- so so what do we view and to our.

You should be looking chic Smart and sophisticated and had a -- Why I'd love to show you some of -- look right.

I think you know it's really it's an interesting time to because.

The most recent statistic -- -- close to 58% of women are in the work force right now.

And -- more important than ever is how women present themselves and they -- -- and I think one of the keys is to know your environment.

And know where you works you know it's very different dressing and an ad agency vs a law firm.

Right for -- -- environment and today we -- -- take a look at some of our fall collection and look at the new trans -- Summer was very colorful.

Some literally carrying little cups of color in the winter and -- yes color continues and to fall and holiday pay just a little bit different so -- Let's let's take a look at the first.

Outfit this is person who works at and Taylor all the women you see today work and Taylor.

And she is wearing a.

Nice little crepe jacket which is perfect a transitional peace between summer and fall -- and it's a pink says you can see the color -- continue and she warning she -- with a neutral -- they'll block so that really help grounds that and she's wearing our classic silk -- sure.

And we have this in normal colors but today.

Today we're showing it to you and animal -- Because that said dude that it is -- this is an animal print you -- Wear to the office I I think definitely and we're looking at three separate pieces three separate pieces and she does her heels are from Ann -- well the new stack teal.

It's for giving its very flattering it's good for work and by -- right and round about how much would those three pieces for peace including issues -- -- That would come to about 300 dollars 30400 dollars and everything is under a hundred except for the jacket which 17 DAX OK any -- -- along -- she did its part yes absolutely -- -- to -- Kia and now we have Lucia -- works in our marketing department and -- is doing.

Is wearing a and -- combined it with.

What we would normally consider something similar to a pencil skirt but it's a classic skirt with a little bit of flair which gives it -- of -- fashion -- I think.

One of the things that we've seen today is that women are much more comfortable expressing their femininity at work.

And they don't need to Wear head to -- suiting.

So this is a great alternative rarely see -- in the seat these days you're right talk about the script I understand that there is a little bit of the flares and it is more feminine yet linked the appropriate link.

Yes I think one of the rules -- -- you don't read -- and -- Don't go too short for the office.

And she's -- a with a pencil skirt and once again you know.

If you're not ready for the snow leopard you can Wear pencil skirt and navy black or other colors what about jewelry for work is that -- considered too much is it distracted.

Based on fabrics that you know Munis tights or not have a winter confident go into the spring absolutely it's very vs tell -- -- -- work all the way through the winners decency could Wear with -- a great suggestion very -- Salary humor now -- -- a -- China gets in the next quickly OK perfect.
