You know how some pop-culture references stick with you, even though they are not at ALL mainstream and you will always have to explain them? I feel that way about a line from the pilot of an old show, Made in Jersey, which was HEAVILY promoted back in 2012 and then yanked after 2 episodes aired. It’s about a blue-collar woman who gets a job at a highfalutin’ NYC firm, and one of her friends was in every single ad calling her, in a heavy accent, “Fancy lady lawyer.” All of which is to say that when I saw these outfits on Rachel Brosnahan, I just kept saying to myself, “Fancy lady reporter!” Sometimes it’d probably be better if I just said, “Here’s some stuff Rachel wore,” but where’s the fun in brevity.
