Mixing three differnt textures (ruffles / lace / leather), I called it my triple treats. I experimented this ensemble yesterday but decided to put a pair of pants on (and changed my shoes as well) and headed out for work. Somehow, a leather skirt does not seem appropriate for most offices in general, except for those who work in the fashion industry - a fashion editor perse. I love leather skirt because it has this edgy look and is sassy.
I think I could tone this outfit down by switching to a different pair of shoes, perhaps a pair of classic black pumps but I do not have ones (duh!). You know I have always loved seeing women in classic pumps but I personally don't like wearing them myself. I prefer open toe shoes simply because my feet can't breath and eventually stink (ewww - yuck!!!), just not very practical for me.
The leather skirt is so hotttt. Whew! I'm loving the mix and match of feminine to edginess. They play off one another so nicely.
ReplyDeleteI'm the opposite when it comes to shoes. As much as I adore the look of peeptoes (I think I own one pair), my toes look funny, lol. So I tend to stick with closed toe or all open.
What a beauty!
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is really cute and that mint green color is one of my faves this spring. Very cute post.

So many pretty details here, Nelah. I love that heavy bracelet with the vibrant blue. That's funny you prefer open toe - I prefer closed toe so then I don't have to worry about always keeping my pedicure in line, lol!

sexy sexy shoes Nelah ^_~ and the ruffle blouse is so pretty! Love that you mixed the textures.
ReplyDeleteOoohhh!!! I LOVE this outfit!!!! Totally Irresistible!!!
ReplyDeleteCee and Jean: trust me, I would LOVE closed toe shoes but somehow my feet get sweaty real fast and they create unpleasant smell (yuck and yikes). Perhaps there is a solution for sweaty feet out there.
ReplyDeleteSusan l, Flower Child Beauty, Irrisistable Icing: thank you :0)
Dale: I love it too. It kind of gives a cooling effect to the eyes. Good for summer. I have this top in black too, I save it for fall and winter.
ShinyPrettyThing: Thanks girl :) I am still learning and experimenting with layrering and dressing in general. I think I like this combo myself.
Loving the mixture of textures! I'd have to agree with you that I think a leather skirt might not be work appropriate, but I still love everything about this outfit - especially of course the ruffles and lace - can't get rid of the girlyness in me :P
ReplyDeleteLoving the outfit, the bag is awesome!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day :)

those shoes are really pretty! I like the ruffles and the bracelet too, very interesting outfit
ReplyDeleteyes I love leather skirt but Im not so sure if I can pull that look..you definitely can!
ReplyDeleteI love both open and closed toe shoes, but now that we can wear dressy sandals at work, I just been wearing sandals this whole summer.
I love the pop of color and top peaking out underneath the cardi:) And the purse and shoes are so tres chic!:D
ReplyDeletelove the leather skirt and the bag! your necklace is also very pretty. :3 i think it's quite hard to make 3 different textures to work together so congrats on a job well done! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the feminine outfit, Nelah. I love mixing textures and patterns together. It adds more characters to the outfit. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThe bag and the skirt are meant for each other - I miss shopping in Thailand! Just found your blog while looking through TOBeautyReviews, definitely following! Your pictures are so beautiful!
