Sidewalk Style: High on the Hill
This week, we stop a Hill staffer in a bright cardigan and vintagey accents.
By
Rachel Cothran
Stacy Kerr, 31
Special assistant to the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi What she’s wearing: An Old Navy cardigan ($7.99!), Theory skirt, her grandmother’s jet beads, and Hale Bob flats from the Palisades consignment store Inga’s Once is Not Enough. Tell me about style on the Hill: “Well, I obviously work for a very stylish woman. And I’d be remiss if I didn’t say that I’m as influenced as the rest of America by Mrs. Obama. In recent months, I’ve tried to wear less suits and more dresses. Partly because it’s summer, but partly because it’s more accepted now. Capitol Hill is still a man’s world in terms of dressing—it’s freezing inside so men wear three layers! So it’s hard to wear a sheath dress, and it’s hard to make a coffee run in a long-sleeved sweater. The air conditioning is my fashion pet peeve on the Hill.” And what about pantyhose? “I’m anti-pantyhose. If Michelle Obama can go sleeveless to the State of the Union address, I think that career women on Capitol Hill can go without pantyhose to the Capitol.”
Where do you shop? “In addition to working for Nancy Pelosi, I have a toddler at home. For efficiency, I hit the troika at Mazza: Saks, Bloomie’s, and Neiman Marcus. They’re all right in a row. With my schedule, I’m loyal to several brands: Theory, Tory Burch, and Diane von Furstenberg. But I have to admit that my favorite place is T.J. Maxx. I can leave the Hill at 8 PM, and they’re open til 9:30.”
What are you shopping for now? “Things I can wear through fall. And Pelosi’s personal assistant is getting married so we’re all shopping for wedding outfits. It’s an August wedding in South Dakota.”
Rachel says: Stacy’s cardigan will serve her well once fall comes to Washington—it’d look great belted with a dress and tights—and I love the bright color. Conservative staples in not-so-tame colors are a great way to inject personality into a work look. And come fall, she might revisit her grandmother’s jewelry box for a handful of brooches to add to her outfit.

Get a tan lady

We here in DC call that look the frump-a-dump. Maybe if Billy Goat Gruff Pelosi stopped blowing the budget on plane rides home every week, she could afford to pay you enough to buy a fashion magazine. You definitely need to start wearing hose and stop emulating them. All of your so-called friends need to go to confession.

Man, She’s a handsome lady I’d $1.25 that.

Hot Damn... I’m sorry she did not attend SJU.
Would have been proud to add her to Fithians Leftovers!
Where my buffalo boys at?

Bodhi wristwatch... Carl in powder blue... Mits still in love with Jordan... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
You guys are joketime... SR out!

Stacey always looks wonderful. It is a shame that CR goes to Wal-Mart for his haircuts.
Posted by: Aaron S, Jul 23, 2009 12:30:31 PM
I think you look like a tramp or slut if you don’t wear pantyhose. Come on women wear them. I’m just a straight guy and i still wear them everyday under my clothes and I have legs better than 99% of the girls. I tear a hole in the cotton crotch for coolness and comfort then I can do EVERYTHING in them. Anyone want to see my pic in them? ilovehose@hotmail.com
Posted by: chris, Jul 23, 2009 11:50:04 AM
I am with you on the no pantyhose issue Stacy but why not turn The Hill upside down and don a leather miniskirt to work one day. I have a black one you can borrow if you would like.
Leather miniskirts are high fashion on the Planet Scranton.

Nixon wore it better.

Stacy is the Michael Jordan of style. Down by 2 game winding down, and the ball’s in her hands. You can always count on her to hit the three. Now if only she can teach her husband that patented Kerr style.
Posted by: Kevin McDermott, Jul 23, 2009 06:38:11 AM
That outfit would look better if the sweater was powder blue.
Posted by: Carl Kaub, Jul 22, 2009 09:31:38 PM
Sha-wing!!!!!!
May I suggest an accessory, perhaps a very classy Bodhi wrist watch or a Boombox vintage purse to tie it all together?
Posted by: Shawn Michael Connor, Jul 22, 2009 09:16:14 PM
Way to go Kerr!
I’m so proud of you I think I’m gonna celebrate by professing my love for you on my Facebook Wall for the 1,000th time.
Posted by: CR Wooters, Jul 22, 2009 08:47:10 PM
Stacy should forget about taking fashion tips from Speaker Pelosi and First Lady Obama and instead turn to VVSC and Corned Beef. Come to think of it, that shade of yellow would really compliment Corned Beef’s red hair and pale skin.
BTW, have I mentioned how much I hate Dave Dana today.
Posted by: Noah Russell, Jul 22, 2009 06:13:32 PM
This young woman is clearly a true star in the making. She knows what to wear and how to wear it - and she has the ability to balance a demanding top job with the needs of her family. Impressive indeed.
Posted by: chcousins, Jul 22, 2009 02:18:00 PM
Love the outfit but I expect someone in her position to use proper grammar. Less suits???
Posted by: Michelle, Jul 22, 2009 10:05:35 AM
And what about the cool sunglasses and perky haircut? Is no one going to comment on how adorable they are???
Posted by: Sherry Turner, Jul 22, 2009 06:33:48 AM
I like her style and sense to shop off-price stores, as well as the big names.
Posted by: p. salerno, Jul 21, 2009 04:55:33 PM
Love the cardi, love the beads, love the flats... love it all!
Posted by: Patricia Murphy, Jul 21, 2009 04:02:16 PM
Ms. Kerr is admirable. I love her honesty of loving "a good deal" without having to spend outlandish amounts of money to look stylish AND savy.
Forget the tips from Speaker Pelosi and the First Lady. They could take them from her. She would turn my head walking down the street. Smokin.....
Posted by: Tricia McKenna, Jul 21, 2009 09:05:15 AM
She’s OK.
Posted by: Nick Wooters, Jul 21, 2009 08:40:59 AM
What a stylish lady, and I have to say the yellow is beautiful on this amazing, talented and beautiful woman!
