Seven women who always look professional talk about dressing for success—where they shop, what they’re buying, and outfits that go from office to cocktails
Executive vice president and general counsel, Fannie Mae
Her work style: “I like to be business-appropriate but feminine. Whether I wear a suit, slacks, or a dress, tailoring and good material are important.” Designers she wears: “I feel great in Louis Féraud suits—one of my favorites is blue with a pinstriped jacket and bouclé skirt. Theory is good for simple pieces with a bit of a ‘downtown’ look.” On her feet: “I love high heels. Stuart Weitzman shoes are comfortable, and I also wear Manolo Blahniks. I’m getting a pair of Jimmy Choo black patent open-toe shoes for spring.” Sophisticated extras: Scarves by Pucci and Hermès.
