Today’s Fashion Inspiration: Padma on Episode Four of Top Chef, Season Three
Padma is looking great here for the Bombay Sapphire quickfire challenge.
The ruffled shirt is feminine with a neckline that really opens up her chest, and the color palette is sophisticated and unusual all the the same time. I’d never put brown and black together, but here, it works because the outfit’s pieces are monochromatic.
When shopping for yourself, look for pieces in the same style or color, but that set off your best features. If you aren’t as long and lean as Paddie (and really, who here is?), go for a skirt that floats away from the body a bit or try different waists. Don’t be afraid to use different colors if you find others you like better!
Here are some great places to get started:
Available from the Gap , the top is only $34.99. Pair that with the pencil skirt from Target for only $17.49 and the belt (Calvin Klein) from Macy’s for only $45. Ok, so you can probably find a cheaper belt at Wal-Mart…but you get the idea!
