Blackburn buys good-quality, tailored pieces, like these two old favorites: a wool and silk Féraud pantsuit and a silk blouse by Gasp.
Congresswoman, Tennessee
Her Capitol Hill look: “Updated traditional—suits by Ellen Tracy or Elie Tahari with straight skirts or trousers. For warmer weather, I really like a pink light-wool skirt suit I have.” What she’s buying for spring: “White shirts by Brooks Brothers or Calvin Klein, and I’m looking for a new basic khaki trench coat.” Work carryall: “A brown leather Furla tote—it’s a good size for holding files.” Signature jewelry: “A gold necklace or strand of pearls.” Where she shops in Washington: “I’ll run into Filene’s Basement or Loehmann’s—I prefer to buy things on sale. After all, I’m a conservative.”
