Elaine Allen had no problem putting her look together after

having to search for her SMC dress. This look is sharp and

Commanding. Let’s here what she had to say.

Q: What was you’re inspiration for this look?

I had a few designers that came to mind when choosing my

look. Donna Karen however really stood out to me and that is

where I found my inspiration. Her style really ties back to what I

was looking for.

Q: Explain you’re look…

I wanted to sum it up in one word, commanding. I want to walk

into a room looking sharp and to the tee. I found this to be one

of a few options when pulling that off. To start I chose this

mixed leather top. It is fashion forward, sexy and is still profes-

sional. You can also throw on a slim grey or black blazer when

running into a meeting. I went with a black leather pant on this

particular look to tie back with my top. While I kept my look to

all black, they do add a little extra sass. Shoes are always in

supply and I have a wide range of options, in this case I went

with a sleek Coach bootie. It really intertwined well with the

combination of comfortable and elevated. I finally finished my

look with the chic Coach belt and a bangle or two.

Q: How do you feel this outfit will help you in the selling process?

We are apart of the fashion industry, it only makes sense that we as

associates are with the current trends. It will not only give us as a team

confidence but our customers as well. Which over time will keep Coach

in the forefront of their minds when choosing where to shop.
