If you look closely, you can see the oxford shirt buttons are made of clear crystals. I especially love the chain necklace detail under the buttoned-up collar. Kim’s cropped white blazer hits the top of her high-waisted skirt perfectly. The menswear vibe to Kim’s look is heightened by the contrast of her black pumps and braided hair.

VIDEO: Bloomberg TV Show on Anna Wintour

April 3, 2011  |  Chicago Street Fashion, Video

My brother William Creyer is an investment banker at Raymond James and I’m pretty sure Bloomberg is his favorite television channel. His passion for understanding the machinations of business and industry has rubbed off on me. Any time I see stories or videos in business media outlets about the fashion industry I get very excited. Plus, I love to feature videos about fashion on my website to switch things up a bit!

Above is a wonderful episode from Bloomberg’s television series Game Changers, which documents the rise of industry leaders in a variety of fields. Anna Wintour, the editor of VOGUE magazine, is not only a visionary in the field of style and fashion, she is also a gifted thinker with a remarkable instinct for business. Quite simply, Anna has gotten where she is today because she is uncompromising and demands the best out of everyone she works with. I could go on about the unfairness of the depiction of strong female leaders in popular media, but I will end by stating that I have immense respect for Anna Wintour as an entrepreneur, a visionary, and a person.
