Kay Strickland: warm in black on Kirk Avenue, Roanoke
What influences your personal style? “I tend to go for classic, sophisticated looks … Jackie O, Princess Kate … if I only had their bank accounts.”
What’s this outfit’s signature piece? “I dressed around the boots this morning. To be honest, the higher heels hurt if you have to walk too long in them, but I love them any way!”
Where to get it: “I got them online, though I think that Yarid’s has carried them.”
Occupation: Chief development officer, Carilion Clinic

What caught my eye: It was cold Friday afternoon, I mean cold.
When I saw Kay turn the corner I knew I needed to catch her quick before she found someplace warm.
I really love all the layering — tights to stay warm with her skirt and her coat was long to cover as much as possible. Also, take note of her boots. Kay means business with those tall, narrow
heels.




She looks great. I trust you schooled her about how wrong she is to find walking in heels uncomfortable.
@tass, no need. Kay is 58 and still pulling out her tall heels? She’s a class act in my book, sore feet or not.
