I don’t always wear head-to-toe black and pale pink and carry a Kate Spade bag, but when I do…I just own it. I’m a sophisticated lady, dammit. Now make me a gimlet and bring the car around. (How great would it be if I dressed up really fancy and hired a chauffeur for the day to drive me around in my 10-year-old Nissan? I would also wear giant sunglasses and hold a candy cigarette.)

I know you all visit this blog because you want to learn to be a classy broad like me, so consider this your master class for the day. Bows. Chauffeurs. Candy cigarettes.

Welcome back!!! That was me, talking to me. I was in New York most of last week, so I was too busy being a fabulous jetsetting lawyer to blog. I came home to spring weather (about damn time), but here’s one of the outfits I wore last week when I was trying to will spring into being with my wardrobe.

In case you hadn’t heard, bell sleeves are #sohotrightnow. These particular bell sleeves remind me of accordions. I’m not sure accordions are all the rage, but wouldn’t it be great if they were? 2017: the year we all dip our sleeves in our soup and Drake comes out with a polka album. You heard it here first.
