Magical Matching Seperates ...

Nothing tells the world that your a put together lady of taste and worldliness than a Power Suit.
At least that's how it was back in 1987. Your pants matched your blouse perfectly. Your skirt and your blazer looked like ONE. Everything had its place and getting dressed in the morning was a cinch.
But, can we pull it off again in 2012? Matchy-match has been poo-pooed for so long now, right?
And can we do it in a more casual fashion, in lieu of a sun dress, perhaps? Hmmmm, let us see what we can put together:
If you take these cute little floral culottes from Insight...
And pair them with this oversized and flowy tee in the same pattern...
Wham Bam! You get what looks like a dress, but is really a biking-friendly modern day power suit that tells the world your a fun gal with a bit of grandma flair!
Let's give it another try....we just got in these shorts/skirt combo's from Miss Me...very vintage-y and amazing!
Just the kind of thing you may find at the Prairie Sisters Vintage Show this saturday at the Missoula County Fairgrounds (http://www.theprairiesisters.com/2012/03/12/partying-prairie-sister-style for more info on that great event! We're sure to be there!)


And you pair them with it's sister tank, which is so flattering with its bra-friendly straps and peplum hem....
And BananaTown! Your Power Suit is so dainty and lovely, you would be the darling of the dance in this one!
I do believe the power suit has won me over, and not just as a costume for an 80's party.
The power suit can in fact return with grace and steez.
