When you have a stunning pair of red shoes (like these here), sometimes you just need an outfit that foils the fabulousness of your footwear. In that spirit, I present to you the outfit du jour.

Nanette Lepore consistently produces pieces that are ladylike, yet eye-catching. I love the fitted structure and flaring sleeves of this silk georgette blouse ($350). You'll slide beautifully from drinks on Saturday night to breakfast with grandma on Sunday morning. (We know you didn't have time to go home and change, you saucy minx.)


Pair the top with this high waist skirt from Norma Kamali ($135) in matching black with just a hint of flare at the hem.


Restrained beauty with just a hint of vixen is yours at last.
