Playfully sassy

 

OOTD styled with M.A.C.

“I loathe narcissism, but I approve of vanity.” — Diana Vreeland


There is something so playfully sassy about fitted, ripped jeans.

While the knee-high boots are the main style element of this outfit, the ripped jeans add an element of sass. The loose fitted, pullover taupe blouse is great in that it isn't a conventional color choice. Elbow-sleeve, roll tabs are a fashion must for me. I love the up-a-notch look that they give with a proper roll.

I chose to pair this outfit of the day with the Ellie gold-tone cuff bracelet. Embossed with cute, rotund elephants, the tall cuff gold-tone cuff is perfect for this sassy outfit. The hieroglyphic look of the cuff play well with the chevron pendant on the 24" necklace.

Prisoner to style



OOTD & M.A.C. Style Inspiration

 
"I have always believed that fashion was not only to make women more beautiful, but also to reassure them, give them confidence" - Yves Saint Laurent

 

You should be so lucky to be a prisoner of style!

I love the stark contrast of black and white with ANY accent color. Usually you see it with a pair of black slacks, white top and colorful add-ons in the accessories, but it's all in one piece in this outfit of the day!

The off the shoulder, knitted pullover is fabulous for more reasons than one. I love the slimming fit around the waist. It works marvelously on her hour glass figure. The off the shoulder reveal is respectfully sexy for even a mom out with the family. She needn't worry about where her pop of color comes from - it's already on the sweater. Easily noticed are the bold stripes of the yellow at both the top and bottom of the sweater, but did you see the thin yellow on the arm seam?

I chose to pair this outfit of the day with the Buckle-up in yellow (available in navy, red, cream, yellow and teal) wrap bracelet. The denim jeans keep the outfit playful and casual, much like the bracelet.

"Fall" for fashion


OOTD & M.A.C. Style Inspiration 

"A woman's dress should be a like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view." —Sophia Loren



Ready to for fall fashion?

Okay, okay. So we haven't quite finished the summer yet - Atlanta is still experiencing scorchers - and I'm already talking 'bout fall. I can't help it! I love fall fashion, styles and colors; turtlenecks, thigh high boots with pencil skirts and neutral colors.


Summer fashion is great, but all too easy. Sad the woman who cannot make a head turn while she is flashing skin, but to demand attention clothed from head to toe - that takes real style. This OOTD is one of those outfits. Long pencil skirt, buttoned blouse and heavy leather materials make me think warm and cozy.

I paired this OOTD with Brazen Amazon, a hammered metal bangle. Love the texture that is affords this outfit. The shirt, skirt and leathers are smooth so the textured metal compliments the outfit well.

Transitions


OOTD styled with M.A.C

"Walk like you have three men walking behind you." —Oscar de la Renta

Fall is on it's way, but Summer is still here. What's a gal to do - there are those last few summer pieces we haven't worn, but we're excited to start piecing together our fall favorites.

Fashion transitions are so exciting. There always a good excuse to shop for more and it creates and unplanned rummages through your closet to rediscover some of your forgotten fashion assembles. 

While layers are the stylings of most fall/winter outfits, it's also the ? of seasonal transitions. Dressing in layers (winter/spring, summer/autumn,etc.) gives you the ability to go-with-the-flow. If it gets to hot, take something off or just the opposite. Take the OOTD paired with Alice, a light-weight gold-tone bracelet with turquoise charms, whimsical key hole and dangling antique key. This mid-thigh, 1-piece dress with lace bottom is both light-weight and appears soft and airy. While the bleached, sleeved denim jacket is light in color and is a 'soft' addition to the outfit, it serves as a great wind breaker. If it gets too hot, just take it off.
