Donna Reed Style Note- Mary’s Campaign

8 Nov

office-wear-thumb

Donna disapproved of Mary’s sophisticated outfit in this episode, and it is a bit much for high school. For the office however, nothing is more professional and perfect than a pencil skirt and the right top.

This is a modern take on Mary’s ensemble perfect for the modern career woman. It is a striking combination of elegance and edge. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself strutting down the sidewalk like it’s your personal runway.

Shown Here:

Skirt – BCBG – $278.00

Top – Anthropologie – $88.00

Earrings – Tiffany & Co -$3,300.00

Bracelet – J. Crew – $70.00

Bag – Zappos – $302.00

Shoes – Piperlime – $189.00

dining room - romantic

I love a romantic dinner at home. Of course, going out to a nice restaurant is always a lovely treat, but, when it comes to pure romance, nothing can beat a gourmet feast prepared and consumed in the comfort of your own home.

Donna created a lovely romantic dinner to enhance her matchmaking escapades. However, the evening ended with she and Alex dining alone. A perfect ending if you ask me.

Here’s my take on the romantic dining table. Makes me wish that I actually had a dining room.

Donna Reed Style Note – Mary’s Double Date

Modern Outfit

In this episode Mary has the loveliest prom dress. It is achingly romantic and who can’t use a little a romance in their life?

While I’d love to live in a world where this dress could be worn everyday, it just doesn’t seem practical. However, using this dress as inspiration we can put together a wearable ensemble that maintains the romantic appeal.

Shown Here:

  • Earrings – Tiffany & Co. – $325
  • Cardigan – Piperlime – $98
  • Blouse – Anthropologie – $98
  • Bag – Sundance Catalog – $198
  • Skirt – Boden USA – $58
  • Leggings – Gap – $12.50
  • Boots – John Fluevog – $285
