Pencil Skirt & Faux Leather Jacket

pencil skirt & faux leather jacket

Elizabeth & James Pencil Skirt | BlankNYC Faux Leather Jacket | Joie Sandals (old), similar Here & Here | Chelsea28 Clutch | Earrings (similar)

I wore this outfit last weekend to a friend’s surprise birthday party.  There was lots of laughs with friends, great drinks and a dj.  We had so much fun celebrating and dancing the night away!

This is my second Elizabeth & James pencil skirt I have purchased.  You can see my other post here.  I think the fit is so great and very flattering.  And, they are the most comfortable pencil skirts I have ever worn.  Which is saying a lot!

This faux leather jacket is a must for anyone’s closet who loves leather jackets (comes in several colors).  Blank NYC makes a great quality faux leather jacket.  I own many of their jackets, in different styles and colors.  I love their moto jacket (I own this style in 3 colors)!  This style just came out with a gorgeous light pink!  I already own the other style in pink, but I am still thinking about getting this one :)

Ripped Jeans & Colorful Pumps

I have been on the hunt for a great pair of medium wash denim.  I got this pair several weeks ago (I showed you on snapchat) and I’m officially in love!  For me to completely love a pair of denim it takes a lot!  I expect a lot out of my denim and if the fit or wash isn’t perfect I take them back.

I love that this are distressed, I always go for my ripped denim first.  The distressing is the perfect size and perfectly placed.  They are the perfect medium wash with barely any fading or wisking (too much fading or wisking makes your butt and thighs look bigger).  They are super skinny at the ankle and the fit is perfection!  Again, the fit is very difficult for me.  I have a smaller waist and rounder butt so it has always been a challenge to find great fitting denim.

I also always have really great luck with Frame Denim and Paige Denim.  These from Frame are my ride or die faves for black & white.  I love this pair from Paige, very similar to what I’m wearing.

If you are still living with cooler weather and feeling the need to be springy, like I am feeling, a white blazer and colorful pumps is a perfect way to achieve this.  I feel light and springy but I am still dressing for my cooler temps here.

I have to mention my new Celine handbag.  This is a birthday gift from my sister!!  I was so surprised by this gift!  I have been wanting a new handbag for spring and summer but couldn’t make up my mind.  She of course picked out the perfect bag that I love so much!  Her generosity is always so amazing!  Thank you so much sissy!!

Watercolor Maxi Dress

Felicitiy & Coco Maxi Dress | IRO Leather Jacket, similar for less | Wedges (similar) | Dior Bag, similar Here, Here, Love This | Kate Spade Bracelet | Lana Earrings, similar Here, Here

I completely love a good maxi dress!  This one is super comfortable, comes in several colors and is under $100!  The length is longer, which is great for all you ladies with long legs.  For reference, I am 5’4” and I have to wear tall wedges with this dress and it still skims the floor.  If I wanted to wear flats I would have to get it hemmed.  But I love wearing wedges because it gives the illusion that I am much taller than I am.  No one has to know I’m wearing 4 inch wedges under my dress ;)

Of course this dress looks super cute with a denim jacket.  But I wanted to show it with a different option for cooler days/nights.  I love leather jackets so much!  A white leather jacket is a great staple in my closet this spring & summer.  I find myself wearing it more often than I thought I would.

Have a great Tuesday and thanks for reading :)

Breezy Dress With a 70’s / Festival Style

coachella festival 70's style

The Kooples Dress | Prada Sandals, similar under $100 | Saint Laurent Bag, similar under $30 | Rag & Bone Hat | Hoop Earrings | Free People ArmbandSunglasses (similar) | YSL #32 Lipsticks

A dress is my favorite thing to wear, especially a fit & flare style.  I think it is the most flattering (and forgiving!) style, and also so easy to wear!  This dress is 100% silk, which is what makes is so breezy and comfortable… but also pricey.  I found styles here, here and here that will give you a similar look for less.

I’ve been inspired by the 70’s and festival style lately.  So I paired this dress with a fringe bag, clog sandals and floppy fedora hat.  I can totally see this dress being worn to Coachella, any summer festival or drinks outside under the sun.

ps- every time I wear anything breezy I think of the line “I’m breezy”.  This is from my all time favorite show and one of my favorite episodes of that show.  If you know it, we are best friends!!!
