Amy Kern

44, attorney and executive director of Watch nonprofit

Spotted at: Blu Dot outlet open house.

What are you wearing? Gold necklace by Jennifer Fisher, Mara Hoffman coat, J. Crew blouse, Proenza Schouler pants, Gucci boots.

Describe your style: Fundamentally classic and tailored with a stubborn bohemian streak.

Favorite local shops: D.Nolo and Room No. 3.

Best style advice you've received: There is nothing more un-chic than looking uncomfortable; own your look, whatever it is. Also, it takes the same amount of time to put on a great blouse and trousers as it does a sweatsuit. Fill your closet with thoughtful choices, and it's a snap.
