NOW THAT LENT IS UNDERWAY, I HOPE YOU’VE HAD TIME TO RECOVER from a short but intense Carnival season. I never thought I’d say this, but it’s something of a relief to exchange sugar-topped king cake for flax seed-topped oatmeal and sequined booty shorts for black pencil skirts.

If your workplace wardrobe could use a pick-me-up — or if you’re just getting started in your career and floundering when it comes to finding a style that’s you but more professional — turn to p. 22 for real-life examples of women who let their personal style shine through.

ALG Style assembled nine workplace looks (p. 27) appropriate for corporate to creative office environments.

On that note, I’d be amiss if I didn’t mention ALG Style’s Warehouse Sale, sponsored by CUE, which takes place at 9 a.m.

OF STYLE

It may be called hardware, but choosing the right knobs and pulls can be easy.

Rustic brass branchstyle pull, $21.80 at Nordic Kitchens & Baths

SELECTING KNOBS AND PULLS FOR YOUR KITCHEN, BEDROOM AND BATH can be tricky, whether decorating a new residence or updating an old one. Randall Shaw of Nordic Kitchens and Baths suggests customers first know the style of the room and cabinetry.

“Stay within the style of contemporary, transitional or traditional,” he says. But that doesn’t mean homeowners can’t mix and match. “By taking a door like a Shaker door, that’s more traditional, and putting contemporary hardware on it, you’ve got more of a transitional look,” he says.

Knobs and pulls can be inconspicuous or the statement piece of an entire space. “Contrast would highlight the knob, but a monochromatic one will blend in,” says George Saucier of The Shops at 2011 Magazine.

Changing the size or finish of hardware is a good way to switch up a room’s look. Saucier recommends keeping the hardware proportionate to the cabinetry or drawer, but Shaw sees trends moving toward oversized hardware — a 7- or 8-inch pull on a kitchen cabinet, for example.

For homeowners replacing fixtures on an older piece, Shaw urges caution. “Old cabinetry pulls are measured in inches, whereas a lot of the hardware today is based in millimeters,” he says. Saucier adds that the location of pulls and knobs can be moved. “If you’re refurbishing, you generally want to put fixtures where they used to go, but you could change them if you sanded and painted over the old holes.”

Sometimes the most striking looks are achieved when homeowners venture from the norm. Plumbing fixtures don’t have to match cabinet hardware, Shaw says, citing a dramatic kitchen with stainless steel appliances and plumbing features and gold hardware.

“The satin gold hardware matches the style of the cabinetry,” he says.

Iron Horse Clothier brings menswear and rustic style to Old Metairie.

BY LEE CUTRONE | PHOTOS BY CHERYL GERBER

AS OWNERS OF IRON HORSE CLOTHIER (523 Metairie Road, Metairie, 504644-4800), Joe Caldarera and his wife Tiffany aim to meet a fashion need in the New Orleans area.

“It was my husband’s idea,” Tiffany says. “He noticed the need for a men’s clothing store on Metairie Road and decided to embark on what has been and continues to be an incredible experience. It also provides a business opportunity for our daughters to carry on to future generations.”

Joe worked on the men’s store concept during his spare time — he operates J. Calarera & Co. contractors full time — transforming a nondescript Metairie Road property into a building with a rustic brick facade and a spacious interior reminiscent of an old-fashioned general store.

Its name inspired by the railroad track a half-block away, Iron Horse has signs reading “Dry Goods” and “General Merchandise” on its facade.

“The rustic look of the building was intentional,” Joe says. “It represents an earlier time, when things were simpler, a time when things were slower, when quality and customer service were of predominate importance.”

Joe infused the 6,000-square-foot space with weathered elements like reclaimed cypress, exposed posts, beams, rafters and concrete floors. He built wooden islands and display tables himself. At the rear of the store, the office area resembles a PAGE 21

turn-of-the-century depot, while a portion of the dressing area features wood wainscoting sourced from a thoroughbred horse farm that once was home to Triple Crown winner Secretariat.

The Caldareras picked up vintage items at antiques store statewide, including an advertisement for Brown’s Velvet Dairy, framed photographs, antiques, local art and a working light from a railroad crossing. All the handmade tables and art are for sale.

The look of the store is classic American West-meets-vintage. But the scope of its offerings is much more broad. The inventory covers most categories of menswear (casual wear, sportswear, business attire, custom suits, shirts and tuxedos, shoes and accessories) for a wide range of ages.

“We have mothers shopping with their teenage sons, older Old Metairie residents and anywhere in between,” says Tiffany, who

does the store’s buying with Kim Sam-Pang, one of Joe’s five daughters.

Apparel lines include Peter Millar, Coppley, Bobby Jones, Agave Denim and Slate & Stone, among others. Customers will find shoes by Trask and J Shoes, WeWOOD watches, leather goods and men’s apothecary items such as soap, cologne and fragrances

by Jack Black.

“We have some lines that other retailers have, but one of our main goals was to have new lines that set us apart,” Tiffany says. “We wanted to offer some things you couldn’t get somewhere else.”

Iron Horse also offers on-site tailoring.

According to the Caldareras, there is something for everyone at Iron Horse, whether customers’ tastes are traditional or more fashion forward. There’s also merchandise for women: scarves, wraps, handbags, candles, serving pieces, jewelry, keepsake

boxes, diffusers and other goods. Originally intended as a way for male customers to pick up gifts for the women in their lives, the women’s selection has become an attraction in its own right.

Since Iron Horse opened in November 2015, business has been brisk.

“The reception has been wonderful,” Tiffany says. “The people who live in the area patronize their local businesses. They have been very gracious to us.”

The owners say shoppers from other neighborhoods value the ease of having a men’s store along a commercial corridor that offers retailers, restaurants, hair salons, medical offices, banks and other businesses.

Iron Horse also has a parking lot.

“It’s convenient to Old Metairie and to everyone,” Tiffany says. “[Shopping for] upscale men’s apparel, accessories and gifts no longer means going into town.”

WHAT I WEAR TO WORK Three professionals share their workplace style and fashion tips.

KATE LALLA Attorney

How do you pick your outfits?

I love to tear pictures out of magazines and browse Pinterest. If I need a particular piece, I call Aimee and Corrie with ALG Style. They can find anything.

BY MISSY WILKINSON

How does your job influence your outfit choices?

I learned that looking “together” matters. I feel confident when I look polished. A hot mess lawyer is not a good look.

PHOTOS BY ROMNEY PHOTOGRAPHY

What’s your color strategy?

Neutrals — white, black, gray and nude.

I keep it classic and clean.

Where do you shop locally?

Angelique Boutique and Angelique Shoe. Angelique Weiser, Heather Catalanotto and their staff have a great eye and are always enjoyable to shop with.

How do you express yourself in the workplace?

I gravitate toward statement necklaces. They can dress up a sleek monochromatic look for the office and add fun for lunch or drinks after work.

CUE

What do you love about what you’re wearing in this photo?

The pants. They’re

by Getting Back to Square One, which is my current favorite brand.

Anything else you want people to know?

If you have a career that requires a bit of style restraint during the week, let loose on the weekends. I suggest planning a date so you can wear that fun outfit and look forward to it all week.

DR. SAMIRA L. BROWN Section Head of General Academic Pediatrics at Ochsner for Children

Do you have a particular style?

I try to be conservative and professional when I’m working with families, and wear something that’s easy to examine kids in. A lot of our exams are very active and mobile, so you have to be balanced when you’re doing exams and leaning over kids.

How do shoes play into that?

I wear a lot of flats or knee-high boots, and in the office, I’ll do a kitten heel.

When I know I’ll be on my feet for extended hours, I wear compression hose. I pick flats with a little bit of character. I have silver flats that spice up an outfit.

What’s your color strategy?

I tend to love blues, blacks, purples and grays.

Favorite local shop?

Clover Boutique

How do you pick your outfits?

I try to change things up. I have a lot of versatile pieces — blazers, cardigans I can throw on with pants and a top or over a sheath dress.

[These layers] keep me warm during the day and also help me transition from clinic to my administrator role.

Any workplace fashion advice?

Have fun, but wear things that you feel comfortable in. I don’t take fashion rules too seriously. If I feel good in it, that’s it for me.

ALEJANDRA ROSALES, Instructor at Crescent City Pilates

How do you describe your style?

Classic with a modern twist.

How do you pick your outfits?

My outfits come together very naturally, without much thought actually. I love whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfortable and colorful, that is a reflection of my personality but also is respectful to my clients. I love to be a little different and edgy.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your color strategy?

I love all colors.

Any fashion advice?

Stay true to you, but also be expressive and chic.

FASHION WEEK RETURNS NOW IN ITS SIXTH SEASON, NEW ORLEANS FASHION WEEK (NOFW) showcases fashion designers from throughout the Gulf Coast.

“I thought there was a void in the city when it came to fashion and industry,” says NOFW Executive Producer, founder and self-proclaimed “jack of everything” Tracee Dundas.

From March 13-19, NOFW (www. fashionweeknola.com) holds more than 50 runway shows, as well as events including an emerging designer competition. “Young,

virtually unknown designers are showcasing, typically for the first time, on a runway and exhibiting their collection,” Dundas says.

There’s also an expo where designers sell their garments to local stores. “Boutique owners and buyers can come look at merchandise and potentially create a wholesale component,” Dundas says. The Fashion Industry Career Fair fosters business relationships within the New Orleans fashion community.

Dundas feels the pressure of planning such a major event.

“Making sure we do bring a “wow” factor … that gets me nervous, but at the end of the day it comes from the designers and their aesthetics,” says Dundas, who does not see the designers’ collections until they hit the runway. “That’s what I love about what we’re doing,” she says.

“We’re not trying to be New York.

We’re marching to our own beat with the designs and what we’re creating.” — STEPHANIE METHERALL

ALTERNATIVE NATION HOPE GERSOVITZ AND JESSICA F. JOYCE OPENED THERATIQUE (4440 Canal St., 504-270-9618; www.theratique.com) in January as a “one-stop therapy shop.”

Theratique offers counseling, acupuncture, massage, reflexology, hypnosis, Reiki and more. A licensed counselor for 15 years, Gersovitz long had sent her clients elsewhere for these alternative health treatments.

“It just made sense to have it in a central location, which then increases the benefit for the client,” says Annick J. Burke, Theratique’s holistic director.

and counselors can tailor unique plans to each client’s needs to help them heal.

“The body is able to support itself in its own cleaning and stress reduction, so it’s actually very empowering,” Burke says. “It gives clients the tools and foundation they need to feel better.”

Gersovitz and Joyce hope to expand. “We would like to become a staple of New Orleans culture. We’d like to be the Fleurty Girl of therapy,” Gersovitz says. “[Theratique] is bringing things together in a way that this area hasn’t seen.”
