Something about wearing all black says bossy to me.  The look and feel of this color makes such a powerful statement and you can usually never go wrong no matter what size you are, as it is the most flattering and forgiving color one can wear.  I love bright and beautiful colors but black is definitely a BSM favorite and absolute go to! For today's OOTD post, I chose a simple turtle neck, tiered leather skirt, ankle booties and topped it off with some classy long pearls.  My favorite items of this look are the the skirt and the booties.  I have always appreciated the look of a great leather pencil skirt.  If you find the perfect fit and length, it just hugs and accentuates your curves in all the right places, proving a very sophisticated and classy appeal.  The ankle booties are a great alternative to a pump.

I was a little busy this week and didn't get a chance to blog a few outfits.  So this a quick post of three outfits I wore this week.

Sometimes you just need something quick and easy yet sophisticated to thrown on and tackle your days business.  Well, in those instances, I turn to a LBD, aka Little Black Dress and some pearls.  Definitely two classic and timeless wardrobe items that you can never go wrong with having multiple to choose from in your closet.  LBD's are a must have for many reasons: they are appropriate for just about any occasion, you can take them from day to night and the color is flattering on just about everyone.  This particular dress is a fitted sweater dress that has a leather trim around the neck;  one of those great off price store purchases that I snatched up because it was such a fabulous find at a steal of a deal.  Pearls are also a necessity because they definitely can add that feminine touch while also giving a touch a class.  Here's a peak at my outfit of the day.

Quick outfit post for the day.  This outfit was based around one of my favorite shirts in my closet.  I love this shirt for so many reasons; its comfy, it can be worn dressed up or down and I absolutely adore the cutout shoulders on it.  Best part is I copped it on sale, and with the style and color combo, I didn't think twice about it!  The color combo of this kelly green and black makes such a statement, it stands out quite nicely on brown skin tones and is definitely a BSM favorite!  Here's a peak at the OOTD.
