Dressing for class in April and an internship in June can make for a tricky wardrobe transition. This shift can be particularly tough for those working in a startup environment--how does a summer intern walk the fine line between looking both creative and professional? We decided to feature our interns, Caroline and Mollie, who have managed to look polished and cool every day on the job.
On this hot afternoon in Georgetown, the girls styled a few outfits that were perfectly suited for a summer day at work. First, they dressed up their tailored shorts with airy blouses, and added accessories to achieve a sophisticated yet understated professional look. Then, Mollie tucked a Bella Dahl chambray shirt into white jeans, which she then paired with red smoking slippers, a Raina belt, and an arm-full of bangles. Caroline added a gold belt to a cobalt blue dress before popping on a Two Penny Blue blazer and gold flats. With a few great accessories to accent a sophisticated base, these two looked comfortable, confident, and ready to work.
Meet Viviana, New York City based fashion blogger for her site, Fashion Truffles. We met up with Viviana in the West Village this week, where she accessorized Tuckernuck basics with items from our spring collection. Viviana accented our White and Warren cardigan with a Lele Sadoughi Nile necklace, Bhati Beats bracelets, an Annabel Ingall cross body bag, her Asha Zodiac ring, a Vismaya scarf, and a pair of statement heels. Viviana likes using basics as a canvas for chic accessories, and we were thrilled to see the way she did so with some of our favorite new pieces.
Our friends Cassie and Justin, both Boston dwellers, rarely have to dress in traditional office attire. Cassie, once a suited investment banker in NYC, recently started her own educational software company. Justin, in product design, works in an artistic and casual environment. However, both have occasions and meetings for which they need to don more professional attire. This is why they love our favorite versatile button downs.
Cassie wears her Icon Shirt with a skirt and beautiful scarf for a dressed up look for dinner with friends, looks office chic as she styles her shirt with a bold blazer and black shorts, then completely dresses the shirt down for a lobster roll at the famous Luke's lobster. Justin wears his sleek shirt with a blazer and great tie for a meeting before changing into a more dressed down look to meet up with Cassie for lunch.
Meet Katherine and Grant, fellow entrepreneurs, and DC's newly engaged power couple. We caught up with them in historic Georgetown where they agreed to let us snap some pics of them wearing their favorite Tuckernuck items. We know that the holidays are a time of giving, and this couple is no stranger to advocating for those less fortunate. Katherine is a Principal of Availor Group, a social impact fund, and a Board member of the Prevent Cancer Foundation while Grant is the founder of the Ocular Melanoma Foundation. The ever elegant couple works tirelessly to help others in need. That's why we found it appropriate to feature them as one of our Holiday Tuckernuck Style posts, reminding us what this season is truly all about.
Katherine is pictured wearing our favorite holiday dress, the Amber along with Kenneth Jay Lane Sapphire Tear Drop Earrings and the Melisa Bracelet, while Grant sports our new Highlands Tweed Jacket, Port Royal Button Down and Woven Elephant Tie. For a more casual look, Katherine threw on a Madison Marcus Jewel-Neck Striped Sweater paired with our Cobalt Blazer and the Champagne Isabella Tote. Grant is wearing our Barbour Down vest, a Vineyard Vines flannel and some leather croakies.
