B a la Moda - here's the info on the jacket: Rose Collar Jacket | $160 at Topshop http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=32051&storeId=13052&categoryId=133423&parent_category_rn=133419&productId=1387896&langId=-1 Patty - the cardigan does have a slight puff, but since it's not a chunky knit, it should be able to fit under the jacket. As for the shoes, we chose these oxford booties to give some extra height (so that your legs look long and lean). They're platform heeled, so they're not as severe as they may look at first. But if you're looking for a more traditionally work appropriate shoe, try an ankle boot in a lower heel height. Hope that helps- Trisha Glad you’re loving the orange jacket too!

Frankly, I don't think I could pull off that color, but something similarly vivid I probably could do. I love everything about this outfit — especially the daring orange jacket!
