Look of the Day: Happy Weekend

I wore this look last night, and couldn’t wait to share it with you. It got suddenly very very cold here in Phoenix this weekend, which I was actually glad about because it presented the perfect opportunity to wear this outfit. When I first saw this dress, I immediately envisioned it worn with black turtleneck and tights. I added a little sparkle with some faux diamonds and silver metallic nails (that I’m absolutely obsessed with!), and I got a winner.

I’m keeping this post very short, so both you and I can go back to enjoying our Sunday.

Wishing you darlings a lovely one!!

So, when you think of a leather+denim combo, I’m sure John Wayne comes to mind, but you might be surprised to realize you can also achieve a more sophisticated look using that exact same combo. Here I present you my results experimenting with it, and I am really happy with how the whole outfit came out.

By the way, this leather skirt is one of the items I had been dying to show you (as I had previously mentioned on this post), and finally I get a chance to do it now that the weather is allowing. I had been dreaming about owning a leather skirt for years (literally!), but usually they come in the form of pencil skirts which are not really flattering on me. Then, last year I bought a faux leather version similar to this one at H&M, but after trying it a few times, decided to return it as it had some pleats that also weren’t very flattering on me. So I was beyond ecstatic to find this gem at bebe a couple of months ago. I am completely in love with it and already have a million outfits planned for it, I’ll probably live in it this winter.

What do you think about a leather+denim combo? Would you wear it? Are you planning to wear any leather items this season? Please share!

Wishing you a lovely weekend darlings :)

Look of the Day: Vest of the 90’s

Today’s look is one that I wore on my trip to Cabo, but since I didn’t really have anyone to take pictures of it over there, I decided to wear it during last weekend’s Looks of the Day photoshoot (and I’ll probably do some more Cabo looks that way, so stay tuned for those).

I am a big fan of vests (I might’ve already mentioned that) because I feel they really add that little extra something to make an outfit special, not to mention they are great layering pieces. I am particularly fond of cropped vests because they highlight one of my best assets, my waist. This denim vest is a recent adquisition, and I am in love with it, but also a little bit disturbed because it is soooo 90’s.

I’m sure it’s not news to you that 90’s fashion is back and the fact that the 90’s are now retro is exactly what’s bugging me! I mean, I can actually remember 90’s fashion, I lived it, I wore it… when it was brand new… Am I getting old or what?! (Don’t answer that!).

Anyway, regardless of my ‘getting old’ issues, I am fully embracing taking a trip down memory lane thanks to the new old 90’s trends. And I’ll definitely be re-visiting some of my favorite looks and pieces from that era, so stay tuned for that as well.
Do you have any favorite looks from the 90’s? Please share! They might serve as wonderful inspiration for future outfits.
