One of my favorite things is to mix different fabrics and textures.  Today’s look blends a silk camisole with a wool blazer and a very cool pair of shoes to create the perfect business casual look.  It’s straight off the streets of Paris, and it’s just fabulous.

I spotted this outfit on Pinterest, but the original is masked.  A Google Image Search didn’t clear it up either.  But regardless of where it came from, it’s phenomenal. Every element is fantastic on its own, but together, magic.

Blazer // This pale oatmeal blazer from & Other Stories is an oversized, modern cut.  If you prefer a more classic style, this Ted Baker blazer has a sleek look.  Want a darker color?  J.Crew’s Regent blazer is still one of my favorite pieces (also in petite and tall).  Plus-size?  Try this classic Calvin Klein blazer.

Camisole // If you want to add a bit of femininity to fall separates, a silky camisole is the way to do it.  This Banana Republic cami is a great option (also in tall and petite).  I also like this Boden Silk Cami.  MM LaFleur also makes a gorgeous camisole that is also washable.  For something under-$50, H&M makes a nice camisole.  If you need a plus-size option, try J.Crew.

**Some commenters have mentioned that this tank would require a strapless bra.  This Wacoal bra is the best strapless bra I have ever worn.  Yet, I know strapless just isn’t preferred by many women.  So here is a wider strap silk tank for those who prefer it.**

Looking for other ways to wear it?  Wear it under blazers, chunky cardigans, and v-neck sweaters.  It would look great with this wrap cardigan from Topshop.

Jeans // Jeans are tough right now.  First off, waistbands are tough right now.  Secondly, I’m just not feeling the 80s Mom Jeans so many of the trendsetting young ones are wearing.  But these Wit & Wisdom jeans with a slimming Absolution panel are a nice compromise between skinny jeans and Mom jeans.  The wash is a nice medium, and the rough hem gives them a little something extra.  They also come in petite.

Shoes // I told you the shoes are special, and they are special.  These Serena Slingback flats are epic.  They’re easy and simple, but the little details raise them up.  These Cole Haan slingbacks with a pleated back are also worth a look.  For something under-$75, try these Nine West slingbacks.  Wide feet?  Try these Naturalizer slings.

Handbag // The little leather bag with the tortoise handle was not for me.  This Aldo tortoise box bag with a dramatic chain is much more my speed.  Need a “real” purse?  This incredible DeMellier top handle is everything.

Jewelry // A classic watch is always a nice addition to any wardrobe.  This Daniel Wellington watch is an easy piece that you’ll wear with everything.  And the necklace is from one of my favorite lines of jewelry — Shashi.  I adore the ivory scarab in the pendant.  And it’s made in the USA.
