Katie Couric- need more power colors

Katie, you need to know that brown is Mother Earth. Now that isn’t bad – it’s just that brown isn’t a power color, as it tends to suggest, “I’d rather be baking cookies” when women wear it. A great way to change the message brown sends is to wear a peacock or royal blue blouse …

Katie Couric- Fabulous Look!

Hey Katie, I like the contrast the blouse makes with your suit. Without it, you would look too severe. And I do believe I see your earrings! Love to see you wearing more daring things.

Katie Couric- more somber than ever!

Katie, I do believe this is the most somber I have ever seen you look. I can also suggest that the raglan sleeves are not as flattering as those with a little structuring, thanks to shoulder pads. Drooping shoulders make women look as if they are burdened with the weight of the world.

Katie Couric- Your Worst Color Ever!

Katie, this may be your absolutely worst color. Beige washes you out completely. You could save this suit with a scarf to keep you from blending into your clothing, but a scarf is so “ladies lunch” that I’m afraid it wouldn’t be very effective for the evening news! The only other alternative is bolder lipstick, …

Katie Couric- Accessories Please!

Katie, I hate to sound like a broken record, but you’ve got to get some bold earrings or a wonderful Omega necklace to give you some oomph. Dark suits without accessories (and great makeup) look drab and boring – sometimes even forbidding.

Katie Couric- Not As Powerful As She Should Be

Katie, Katie. Give up the collegiate blouses with a blazer. The blouse is really quite pretty, but it just isn’t powerful with a boring blazer. In case I haven’t said it before: earrings would help!!

Michelle Obama exquisite in “Royal Purple”

Glad to see Michelle following her own instincts again and wearing purple. It’s a color that suits her, because it makes her face light up – and, of course, also because it’s a regal color! Ms. Obama is a source of inspiration for women throughout the country.

Katie Couric- please brighten it up!

Katie, this is really drab! Please add a “shock of color” when you wear a grey suit. Or at the very least, add some dynamite earrings, a broach or a necklace.

Katie Couric- too plain for evening news

Kate, you are so much better than this. A plain white boring blouse , no lipstick, no earrings. It’s just not the evening news.

Katie Couric- BIG CITY looks

“Katie, black and white always looks sophisticated and “Big City.” It looks great on you, too. How about adding a pair of bold silver earrings, or maybe pair in chalk white!
