"  The Woman: Felicia Gordon, 37, New York City The Job: Splitting her time as counsel for Pohl LLP and as founder of Sugar Hill Culture Club, her Harlem art collective. At the midtown law firm, Gordon consults with the Pohl team on clients ranging from entrepreneurs to an independent rapper. At Sugar Hill, she&amp;#039;s currently working on a photo essay featuring Wendell Headley, a self-proclaimed avant-garde fashion designer who gallivants around NYC public parks in recycled-trash tutus and Lady Gaga\u2013rivaling hats. The Uniform: &amp;quot;My mother [former Planned Parenthood president Faye Wattleton] inspires me to elevate my style,&amp;quot; says Gordon, who cops to a tomboyish mix of button-downs, ladylike A-line skirts from Ralph Lauren and Lacoste, and printed Marni knits. Often she models her own line of slim-tailored vintage R&amp;amp;amp;B/hip-hop T-shirts, sold by appointment through Sugar Hill. It&amp;#039;s her &amp;quot;ode to New York City&amp;#039;s hip-hop culture,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;Growing up here in the &amp;#039;80s and early &amp;#039;90s made me very connected to that world.&amp;quot; The Challenge: Try out spring&amp;#039;s nautical-stripe trend\u2014seen on suits at Marc Jacobs and shirtdresses at Tommy Hilfiger\u2014with looks that do double duty. For Gordon, versatility is paramount: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m not into routines. Flexibility is key when I&amp;#039;m running around the city for different projects.&amp;quot; Click here to see photos from Felicia Gordon&amp;#039;s shoot!
