Lenti likes to wear dresses for work. This black-and-white number, bought a few seasons ago at Zara, has taken her from board meetings to cocktails.
Senior adviser, Bryan Cave Strategies
Office style: “Classy chic. I strive to look put-together and neat.” Day-to-night look: “I’m a huge fan of work dresses. This season, I’ll look for a new work-to-date dress by Oscar de la Renta—I love one from the spring collection that’s sleeveless with a wide belt. And lipstick is key—either Laura Mercier’s Shimmer Lip Colour in Quartz, a deep reddish-brown, or Tanarama by MAC, a light frosty nude.” Attention-getting work accessories: “I wear V-neck shirts with great beaded necklaces and, in the summer, cuff bracelets coupled with sleeveless tops.” Favorite stores for work clothes: “Proper Topper for original suits, Sisley, and Banana Republic.”
