St. John Collection at Nordstrom | The Style Scribe
One designer I can count on year after year to present gorgeous, sophisticated silhouettes while incorporating the season’s biggest trends is St. John. Each collection is filled with elegant gowns, chic separates for the office, and the cutest coats and capes, each season with a new twist. Shop my favorites from the fall ’14 collection below!

FOR THE WEEKEND

I know I don’t need to talk your ear off about track pants anymore, so I’ll just say this: leather track pants for the win! Don’t they look clean and cool with this oversized cardigan? You also know my affinity for caped looks these days. I can’t decide which I like more – this leopard jacquard wrap or this boucle and leather jacket. If you can’t commit to full on leather pants but like leather trim, these pants are for you. For date night, this colorful leopard-print silk dress is calling my name!

FOR THE OFFICE

If you’re looking for a sleek and slender cropped pant or a subtle printed pencil skirt (in a fab fall shade, no less), St. John has got you covered. The brand is known for their office appropriate pieces like this tweed knit number (I’d layer over this blouse), this contrast skirt, and this matching ombre dress + coat combo. If you’re blazer-obsessed, check out this military-inspired jacket. My favorite piece for a work wardrobe is this classic black sheath – love the long sleeves and fitted waist! So many styling possibilities…

FOR FANCY OCCASIONS

Doesn’t everyone want to be dripping with gold? This glittering gown is a wonderful option for a gala or black tie wedding. For a more unique and unconventional evening look, try this liquid satin ball skirt with a statement making top (gotta have those feathers). If bright colors are more your speed, this gown will leave you pretty in pink and glowing for the night. When it comes to evening wear, I’m all about a good Gatsby look – this shift is fun but timeless, don’t you think? This belted black beauty is another one worth a look. While at Nordstrom last week, I tried on this sparkling tweed number. It’s even prettier in person and ideal for a work event or holiday party!
