Nancy Pelosi's 2011 Style File

AP/The Huffington Post

A mini six month round-up of Nancy Pelosi's style this year, inspired by The Huffington Post. It becomes clear that Pelosi is a devotee of the pantsuit, and rightly so as she wears them effortlessly in every colour imaginable. What I particularly love about Pelosi's style is her selection of necklaces, most chunky in appearance and her love of brightly coloured silk scarves. Her style is timeless and she mixes both the new and vintage (notably the white Thierry Mugler outfit at the White House!) fantastically.
