White House Black Market

The Relaxed Blazer

Dressed up or dressed down blazers are always the perfect top layer! The first blazer I tried on is this Relaxed Blazer in Rose Smoke! You’ll love the easy elegance of the relaxed fit that can take you to a boardroom or brunch. The blazer does not meet at the front like a traditional jacket. It’s a relaxed look while staying slim to your body so it doesn’t look boxy. It was designed without back vents to maintain a slimmer shape and be more flattering. Sewn-in shoulder pads help create a silhouette that is at once powerful and feminine. The gorgeous look is great for now, Valentine’s Day, spring and summer…really you can wear blazers year round and don’t limit your color choices to seasons! I think this Rose Smoke (column dressing) look from head to toe is very slimming! It also comes in Black and Biscotti (tan) sizes range regular and petite (sizes 00 – 18).

WHBM® Signature Blazer

I absolutely had to try on the WHBM® Signature blazer. It is made with stretch fabric that moves with you for all-day comfort and style. Designer details, including the fashion illustration on the lining, give this an extra special spin. Show it off by simply rolling the sleeves to expose the chic lady sketch drawing on your cuff. A slim fit keeps this menswear item for the ladies and flattering no matter what you pair it with, whether jeans on the weekend and a graphic tee (you know I love my tees and my blazers) or the matching comfort stretch pants for wherever you’re working. This is a classic piece that will not go out of style and is easily a wardrobe work horse making it worthy investment piece! It comes in regular to petitie (sizes 00 – 18) and also in Ecru (cream/white).

WHBM® Elle Slim Ankle Comfort Stretch Pant

If you haven’t tried the Comfort Stretch Pants, now’s the time to learn why it’s one of WHBM’s long-loved and best-selling styles. You can’t beat the 360-degree power smoothing technology that will hold, lift and shape you. They added darts in the back for a contoured look to make the slim ankle silhouette even more flattering. With flats, heels or sandals, wear this versatile pair of pants everywhere. If you only had one pair of black dress pants in your closet, this is the pair you’d want! I’m wearing these pants in all four pictures! The Comfort Stretch Pants comes in seven colors sizes regular, short and long sizes 00 – 18.

WHBM® Melton Studio Blazer

Introducing the latest WHBM® Studio Blazer made from a melton wool blend in pink, fashion’s favorite hue. As always, strong shoulders give the blazer a look that’s all business, with darts and an angled closure that shape the waist for a flattering feminine silhouette, accented with silver buttons. Mid length, flattering fit make this a go-anywhere piece. I paired it with a beautiful floral blouse similar to the one pictured here. The blazer comes in sizes 00 – 18.

Ruffle Sleeve Blouse

The blouse I’m pictured wearing is out of stock! My apologies! I think the one pictured here is beautifully and would pair perfectly with both pink blazers. The floral print on this blouse is a WHBM exclusive. The delicate ruffles on the long sleeves are a feminine design touch that you’ll love for years to come. I especially love this detail especially when worn without a blazer! A wonderful way to dress up denim or with dress pants for work! Comes in sizes xxs – xl.

WHBM® Tuxedo Editor Blazer

I need to tell you that the minute I put this blazer on I felt like a million bucks! That’s the feeling when you’ll know that you’ll wear something with absolute confidence! Get set for social season with the WHBM® Tuxedo Editor Blazer. This stunning black and white blazer has floral applique which adds texture and interest, and a black satin covered button as a finishing touch. Perfect to pair with black, white, and denim for any occasion. I guarantee that you’ll be loving and wearing this blazer for many years to come! You could even add a pop of color or keep it sophisticated with all black!


Soma Intimates

VANISHING EDGE Microfiber High Leg

These are my hands down favorite panties! Make panty lines disappear forever. Soma Intimates sleek, matte microfiber panties provide a smooth fit that looks like you are wearing nothing at all. The high leg style creates the illusion of longer legs. The panties stay put! They come in 16 colors and patterns. Sizes s – xxl.

VANISHING 360 Perfect Coverage Wireless Bra

Every good outfit starts with great undergarments! I’ve been wearing Soma Bras and Panties for years! Their best-selling Soma Intimates Vanishing® 360 bra smooths your back, front, and sides, now without the wire. The same revolutionary ultra-thin padding and seamless edges you love, now with even more comfort that’s still soft, supportive, and so smoothing under tops and dresses. I love that it’s smooth and seamless from every angle. I’ve shared before that I’m large chested so it’s important to me that I feel supported! Additionally, I love the smooth silhouette especially my sides and back. There are five color choices and comes in sizes 32 – 42 A-DD.
