I also love all the tailored clothing on Scandal. On Kerry Washington and Bellamy Young. Last night Bellamy/Mellie who is now President was wearing a beautiful green suit. I missed most of the episode. But I've always loved the clothes on that show.

They wear things like this St John suit that's only $1000.

@Greeneyedlady21,The first year of that program, there was a web site devoted to Kerry's clothing. I forgot which designer had done her clothes. The Limited made some inexpensive knock offs (like wool coats with no lining---"Hello gaping elbow."), and couldn't get them sold because of the extremely poor quality. Also, good fabrics tailor better than inexpensive.

@islandgrrl,I was the top stylist at Dillards after teaching. That's where I found I had a sciatic nerve and it was very unhappy! Now I'm in a much smaller store! YEAH!!!!

@lulu2 Yay! We just can't show up in the same place wearing it😊 I'm sure you will wear it much better anyway. Please post how you like it when you receive it.

It's a really tough time in my life so some fashion talk provides much needed diversion. I really don't even care about fashion now but it helps a bit..you know?

Thanks for being so nice.

@Greeneyedlady21

Yes, I do know.

@ECBG The costume designer for Scandal is Lyn Paolo. A couple of years ago I got a blazer from that collection for a crazy good clearance price. It's pale mint green, pretty good quality. I don't wear it that much because it really needs to be altered in the bust.

@lulu2 Ebay has it for 329. New with tags. 20% off code for Columbus Day. Sizes 2, 4, 6, 8,and 12. I found it at TJ via a new arrivals email. I had to get a 14, I'm a 12 but they were out. I'm pear shaped, so maybe it's just my shape...but for me it ran small on the bottom and 14 works. Way too big up top so I have to get it altered. The fabric is stiff not soft, that's my only complaint. Ebay says it's polyester and nylon. The embroidery is gorgeous, some butterflies too.

I also saw it at Rue LaLa and Bluefly for 300 plus when I just checked. It was 575 originally at Saks and elsewhere. I've since unsubscribed from TJ emails, too much temptation.

I totally agree, green-eyed lady. TJM is wickedly good to find high-end stuff at rock bottom prices IF you can time the score. You did well. I have something similar to yours in a taupe sheath with a navy blue lace overlay with godet pleats for movement and it is sleeveless, so I bought a navy bolero to cover my arms. I have mine for a h/s class reunion next year. So I must be good and fit in it and that motivates me.
