Rather than dust off one of the many iconic pieces still in her closet, she “wanted to do something new,” and worked with her stylist Nolan Meader to pull a range of Carlyle-worthy looks.

They perpetuated the idea that living here is enough of a reason to get dressed up to run an errand; that smart, working women spend their time thinking about shoes too; and that even a newsboy cap can be sexy. Unlike TV Bradshaw, however, Bushnell’s style does not exist in a vacuum.
“There are just so many designers out there now. It’s a very different landscape than it was in the days when shows were in the tents in the ’90s, when there was an established group of designers who’d been around for a long time,” Bushnell said. “It has just really exploded. Something that once seemed out of the realm of possibility is now possible thanks to the internet and Instagram. Fashion has become accessible, at least visually, to people.
