JUST MY STYLE
Dressing with simplicity and elegance

By Paula Rath
Advertiser Staff Writer

I'm wearing: "A silk cocktail dress from Calista by Cotton Cargo, pearl necklace and earrings. I usually wear suits for court appearances, speaking engagements and other official meetings. On Fridays, I enjoy wearing floral dresses by Cinnamon Girl and Calista by Cotton Cargo."
