Stylish-Classic-Fabulous: Sweater & Pencil Skirt

Hi there!! Please excuse my upcoming absence. I will be gone for a while after this post as my face is still swollen after a dental visit last weekend (these photos were taken prior). I definitely look like chipmunk as of late. My face is getting smaller and smaller every day, but I know that it will take at least two weeks for my face to get back to normal (It happened once before so I know the timetable). Anyway, the outfit post today is about dressing up a sweater. By pairing this somewhat brash "Stylish-Classic-Fabulous" graphic cropped sweater, with a leather skirt and leopard pumps, I was able to pull off a refined ensemble. Once again these amazing pieces have shown their innate ability to elevate any outfit. Thank you for visiting!

Hey everyone! If you are looking for an outfit idea for this upcoming Valentine's Day to replace a traditional dress, you are in luck. I created day & nighttime looks if you have been searching for something that is a little outside the box. Both of these outfits have something in common; a statement piece, which is the timeless "pencil skirt" and both have just the perfect amount of red to really embody this romantic occasion. I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine's Day weekend, and just remember to feel just as beautiful as you all are no matter what you are wearing. ^_^

Basic: Oxford Shirt + Leather Pants + Leopard Pumps

Hello everyone! Today's outfit has all the basic closet essentials; an oxford shirt, leather pants, and of course, leopard pumps. I felt like wearing them all together so here you go, a truly "basic" outfit.These leopard pumps are the newest addition to my shoe collection. I have been searching for the perfect leopard pumps forever (pattern, heel height, and price are my main criteria) and I had my eyes on these J.Crew Elsie Calf Hair, in Leopard for months. Until last November I scoured countless websites until (during the Black Friday sale), I stumbled across reviews on other fashion blogs (Easy Petite Looks and Extra Petite) about these gorgeous pumps; I decided to buy them, and you know what-no regrets! They are really good shoes, and the fact that I got them on sale, just makes it even better. ^_~  Hope everyone has a great rest of the week
