Looking for a way to infuse a little creativity into your work wear?  Deconstruction of the suit is one of the easiest ways I know how.  Be it pairing the jacket with a skirt or possibly tossing on a vest with the pants, there are a multitude of ways to add some zest to your power suit.  Don't get me wrong, there are times when the agenda calls for the simplicity of the suit---but for today, we're going to incorporate a little personality.
