Put A Little Pep in the Step - Peplum Shell & Bandage Pencil Skirt

Image
Peplum tops are a great addition to your wardrobe.  Besides being cute, they serve multiple purposes in my opinion.  First and far most they accentuate your waste, while hiding, what can be a trouble spot for some, the extra love in the middle at the same time. Its a great pairing to a pencil skirt, skinny pants and even trousers, as the slight flair gives a nice sublet dramatic appeal to the scheme of things. Be carefully not to get to frilly, try to choose something sleek when looking for peplum rather than too much ruffle. For this out fit I paired a white zip front peplum shell top with a deep wine bandage pencil skirt, finished it off with some gold jewelry and suede pumps.  Here's a peak at what I wore.

Pink is a universal color that looks good on almost everyone, including the gentlemen.  Some shades definitely pop more so than others.  I truly love the dramatic look of fuchsia pink, it is vibrant and makes a very bold statement, where as the softer pink is very classic and timeless. In today's post I am giving you two different looks with two different shades of pink. The first look has a sassy and bold appeal.  I paired my long sleeve shift dress with some leggings and black knee high boots with gold accents.  This fuchsia shade definitely pops and makes a statement that definitely needs no introduction.  Where as the second look, has a touch of classy sophistication appeal to it.  The soft pink top finished off with a faux leather pencil skirt, pearls and ankle strap heels gives you subtle sexy look.  Here's a peek at the outfits I pulled together.

There is something about the color red on brown skin tones that just makes a bold statement like no other.  Especially when you get that perfect shade!  It is definitely in my top five must have colors for my wardrobe items. Animal print has truly been heavy in my rotation for the past 30 days.  It is definitely a timeless print that will never go out of style, so if I see something in a good color or style I usually snatch it up.  Particularly, this Michael Kors tunic dress was a three in one score, being that is was a dress, it was red and animal print, I got three of my favorite things in one. This outfit was simple pairing with basic essentials that I always keep on hand, long blazer, knee high boots and my favorite BCBG leggings that I just keep buying year after year.  Certain necessities you can never go wrong with having, as they can be paired with multiple pieces in your wardrobe providing you timeless and effortless style on a regular basis. Today was a semi-cold and gl

As the Wardrobe Turns - February Outfit Recap

No two days are the same for me, so as my life is ever changing of course that means my wardrobe does the same.  I never stick to the same daily uniform because my moods always change, so being that I have the freedom to put on what ever my little heart desires, I like to mix it up as much as possible.  However my days events will determine whether I wear a dress or pants, as I always opt for a dress or skirt any day of the week as my first choice.  One thing I can say, I was definitely loyal to animal print and black in the month of February. Since I had I crazy busy month, this post is a quick recap of some of the outfits that I did capture but never got a chance to blog about. Keep reading for more photos and outfit details!
