Fierce

I have a thing for jumpsuits.  It comes from my love of 70's fashion.  To me jumpsuits are fierce! But you MUST get the fit right.  It's a one piece so it can be a challenge to find a jumpsuit where the proportions and rise are fitting.  I find them very comfortable with the wide leg pant.  Think of wearing a maxi dress but with legs. 

What makes this black jumpsuit shine out from the rest are the gold moto zippers.  I love gold and are drawn to garments with bold zippers.  They add a modern and edgy look.  (For this jumpsuit they serve a functional purpose in making it easy to take on and off ... essential for trips to the ladies room)

Depending on your work environment this can totally be office appropriate as well as take you straight to happy hour & evening. 

When I found this one, an try-on selfie was in order.  When shopping alone it's essential to have good gal pals you can reach out to that can give honest opinions.  Amen to technology! I sent this to a special friend that recently moved to the other side of the country.  

Her response confirmed it was coming home! xoxo

Pleated Leather

This Week it's All about Leather, but in a Fabulously Faux Way.

Most Often I Believe that the 'Real' Thing is Far Better than the 'Wanna Be' ; But in this Case Faux Leather Textiles have Come a Very Long Way.  Designers have Used a Light Coating of Polyurethane to Create the Imitated Texture and Shine of Real Leather.  This Makes for a Lighter Material Giving the Garment More Movement and Fitting Easy.

This Skirt Combines Two Big Trends: Pleats and (Faux) Leather.  

It Feels Luxurious (So Impressed with the Realistic Feel!) and Very Classic.  Leather has such a 'Tough' Reputation but Contrasted in this Feminine Pleated Design, it Melts Away to a Soft and Flirty Look.

I Paired it with a Structured White Button Down Embellished with Collar Beading for a Simple Clean Look.  I Plan to Style this Skirt with Sweaters, Silk Blouses as well as Tights & Boots.
