Like a formal pant suit or skirt suit, no never. I DO however love the tailored look of matching separates, such as the printed shorts and blazers all over the fashion world as of late. It&#8217;s just not my thing, I would feel completely alienated from myself in a full on suit. I&#8217;m too casual, and any suit I&#8217;ve ever seen is so corporate and stuffy. For me, it&#8217;s not realistic to buy suit separates, but it is totally sensible to pair items I already own, like this black blazer, with some tailored black shorts.* And voila, we have the closest I will likely ever get to wearing a suit.<\/p>\n<p><em>*I realize these are probably a tad short for most offices (maybe even mine), but it&#8217;s hot and it&#8217;s Florida and I did squats last night, so oh well.<\/em> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1340.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3955\" alt=\"short suit \" src=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1340.jpg\" width=\"564\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1340.jpg 564w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1340-211x300.jpg 211w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1340-423x600.jpg 423w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1343.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3957\" alt=\"ann taylor loft miami\" src=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1343.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1343.jpg 800w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1343-300x192.jpg 300w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1343-600x384.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/blog-final.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3965\" alt=\"erika thomas blogger\" src=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/blog-final.png\" width=\"800\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/blog-final.png 800w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/blog-final-300x209.png 300w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/blog-final-600x418.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1330.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3958\" alt=\"miami fashion blog\" src=\"http:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1330.jpg\" width=\"565\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1330.jpg 565w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1330-211x300.jpg 211w, https:\/\/erikathomas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/IMG_1330-423x600.jpg 423w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 565px) 100vw, 565px\" \/><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>On moi: <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~oB2c\" target=\"_blank\">Gibson blazer<\/a>, Alexander Wang silk top (old, <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~oB4t\" target=\"_blank\">newer style here<\/a>), J Crew shorts (old, <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~oB5D\" target=\"_blank\">similar here<\/a>), LOFT sandals (<a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~jTVw\" target=\"_blank\">sold out, similar here<\/a>), Olivia + Joy handbag (old style, <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~jTVw\" target=\"_blank\">similar here<\/a>), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theorchidboutique.com\/cachito-necklace-17391.html\" target=\"_blank\">Lolindo necklace c\/o<\/a>, ebay sunglasses.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let me start by saying I never in my life envision a time where I will ever wear a traditional suit.
