It's that 'go with the flow' easy chic for today's look. I believe it's appropriate enough since it is Friday.

This is straight out of the latest episode of Covert Affairs worn by the main character, CIA operative Annie Walker. I've been a fan of Piper Perabo for a long time so it's really a delight to watch her every week. It's also nice to see her wardrobe on the show around the office, but even more of a treat when she's out on missions. In the latest episode, she takes a trip down to Cuba and has this lovely outfit that is quite fitting for a place like Cuba. This is something similar to what she wore.

We grew up watching men like James Bond make it look so effortless. We desired to be in such an attractive position, something so over the top, it was glamorous. I love reading books and my favorite genre has always been the espionage/spy novels. Even though I prefer Jason Bourne over 007, you cannot deny the pomp and show we tend to admire from the MI6 agent. The guy oozes confidence (in many cases arrogance) and is ridiculously charming. Over the years, Bond's style has obviously changed with every actor bringing something new to the table. With Skyfall to release pretty soon, I thought it was a good idea to show off some pretty nice Bond-style looks for you gentlemen. In other words, a very suave style of approaching the modern suit.
Just keep one thing in mind, I recommend you get your suits made, rather than pick things off shelves. I will never tire in reminding all of you of that. No worries though, if you do happen to have a figure that fits perfectly fine with off the rack suits, then go for it. Not all of us are as blessed as you are so appreciate it! But for now, pick up some ideas from this list. Suit up!

I thought about the weekend as most of you ladies tend to think about in the beginning of the week. I thought about shopping as most of you love to do always. Then, I thought about someone, I can't say who. No, that's a lie. I won't say who, besides that she inspired this look.

I know most of you don't want the summer to end, well, I do. Because let's face it, more layers means more fun. It's not secret how much I love the autumn/winter months. From a styling point of view, it's a gold mine! But since we're still in the hottest month of the year, we shall bow gracefully as the last days of summer (in most places) winds down.
