It's All About the Third Piece

Ladies- I get feedback from clients frequently asking me WHY they have to wear a blazer or jacket....and why my outfits almost always include a Third Piece...
Here's the thing about the Third Piece...it can be a jacket, blazer, vest....anything that's a second layer over a blouse or shirt. It can also be a statement necklace or belt, a scarf or another statement accessory like a belt bag or sweater worn cross-body.
WHY is it necessary? A few things to consider...
The Third Piece completes a look. It adds a layer of purpose, complexity, pizzazz.
The third piece takes your outfit up a notch, it makes it unique and special.
And for my friends who also live in the mid-west...the Third Piece is functional and practical! When it's 30 degrees in the morning, it will keep you warm until late afternoon when it gets back up to 70!
I almost always include a Third Piece when I create an outfit for a private client, or when a do a style board.
I hope this gives you a little inspiration and clarity on the concept!
I did a short video about it here that I hope you'll enjoy! : https://vimeo.com/810147367
