leather sleeves

when i went on my Zara crazed shopping spree while in Barcelona i picked up one effing ahhhmazing jacket. this lovely cargo and leather jacket with gold hardware is my absolute Fall favorite. i will be wearing it with every and i mean everything in my wardrobe. including my Fall uniform which consist of a pencil skirt, a jacket and bootie. no need to be on the lookout for me wearing anything but a variation of that above uniform lol. hey when you find something that works...ride it until the wheels fall off.

GET THE LOOK

i love the color of this skirt. its sooooo fantastic for fall and works almost as a neutral. the jacket...i can't get over it. leather and cargo the perfect balance of tough yet sexy.
a red lip goes a long way too even with a deeper toned skirt.
 
what do you think of the color combination?

The bandage skirt

i usually shy away from very tight clothing...mainly because it rides up and i end up tugging on it all night and feeling self conscious. but this bandage skirt is different. it hardly ever rides up because of the material. i think its perfect for a date night. since the bottom is so tight i went with a more billowy top to balance it all out.

 i have a booty and i dont like it to be fully exposed...especially on a first date. i usually wait to a second or third date to shut it all the way down lol. So i like to leave my shirt untucked in the back. it serves a dual purpose of covering my booty tootch and making the look less pretentious and more laid back. a perfect outfit for a date to dinner or a movie. i love these L.A.M.B. sandals because although they are hella high they are really quite easy to walk in for a long period of time. Stay tuned for more What to Wear Series!
whats your go to outfit for a date night?
