Bright White Will Beat the Blahs, But Not All By Itself

Katie, this crisp, white shell was a great start.  It's the plainness of the "Daddy" blazer and the color grey that undermine its uplifting potential.  You, like all women, look beautiful and dynamic in any vibrant color that suits your skin tone.  The contrast between the same white shell and a tailored navy blue or …

They Knew You Were a Woman When They Hired You; Don’t Hesitate to Dress the Part

KatieWatch102209

Katie, this outfit completely lacks imagination.  Were you running late to the studio?  If it happens again, no matter how pressed you are for time, please forgo help from the men's wardrobe room.  Instead, perhaps smile politely and pull a vibrant scoop-necked shell, some makeup and a bold, commanding brooch from your tote.  Don't carry …

Good Job, Katie. This Feminine Jacket Suits You Well

Katie, your eyes look beautiful!  Love the style of your grey pinstripe suit – the collar frames your face beautifully.  Would love to see you in more feminine suit styles like this one!  Think about wearing a white scoop-neck top with this suit, since it would harmonize with the stripes on your suit.  And Katie, …

Katie Couric, Don’t Fade Away on Us

KatieWatch100709

Katie, this V-neck is so stark and black that it’s overwhelming.  It's also quite casual for your position.  Tailored jackets really do suit you best. Here you wear so little makeup and accessories that you blend right into the wooden wall behind you.    These earrings are so small and insignificant that you may as well …

Katie Couric, What’s Going On?

KatieWatchWeb100209

Red shoes with a peach blazer? Now that’s something different. The rule of thumb with shoes is that they shouldn’t be the focal point – the face should. I’m afraid those red shoes wear you, Katie. Go ahead; stomp 'em out - at least for this outfit.

Katie Couric: Hum a Bar of “Evening News” for Us, Dear

KatieWatch100209

Ho hum – I do believe a grey jacket with a white blouse was “invented” by John Molloy decades ago in order to keep women from looking feminine. How about a white scoop-neck shell next time around, paired with an Omega necklace and bold earrings? You’ll look so “Evening News!”

Katie Couric: Fashion Police May Let You Slide This Time

KatieWatch100109

Katie, it’s no nice to see you break away from blazer jackets! The little flair at the collar is nice here, and it’s more flattering than those staid collars that blazer jackets have. You look divine in red – please wear it more often. Whooops, the Fashion Police are going to get you on this …

Women in Black: Who’s Wearing Whom?

KatieWatch091809

Katie, vary the jackets; explore styles other than the blazer.  Nice choice of shells--normally the black and white stripes with a black jacket is a great look.  However, here it's ineffective as we can barely see the shell.  Also, a darker lipstick with this outfit would keep the black from wearing you.

Katie Couric: What You’re Really Saying Here is “Blah, blah, blah!”

KatieWatch092509

Katie, you’ve got to tell your teenage children they can’t give you fashion advice anymore. You are so pretty, it makes me sad to see you wearing such unimaginative, collegiate-looking outfits week after week. What would Walter say? I hear his wonderful deep voice introducing you, and I want you to show off for him! …

Katie Couric: Style Resurrected, Now Add a Little “Ooomph!”

KatieWatch092409

Katie, this suit has great potential, and I love that you haven’t been wearing those “daddy jacket” blazers lately. All you need to make this suit rock is to add a great brooch in silver. Maybe something with a flower shape. Darker lipstick, too. This one suggests "Nickelodeon," when it should assert "CBS Evening News: …
