Black Kat

Happy Friday the 13th!! No need to be supersticious today! Just go with it and have fun!

Going out for drinks with friends. Quick outfit. Leather jacket. Done.

Decided to pair up some edgy leather with some pink, fun, floral print. And in case you're wondering what shoes I ended up going with, I wore my red DV by Dolce Vita pumps.

As seen from 'Gondolier' post

Chambray & Denim

I was never much of a fan of "denim on denim" and thought it was overkill. But lately, I've noticed a change in my thinking. Maybe because I've been seeing a lot more people trying out this look and if done right, it hadn't been tacky.

Part of the inspirtation for my outfits have come from ...love Maegan. I had to come up with a "denim" outfit for an event with den.m bar over the past weekend. It all worked out!

I keep forgetting to post pictures of my new eyeglasses and other glasses that complete outfit looks. I'll have to do that soon!

Playful Work Attire

Today I tried to have fun with my wardrobe. I think I come up with better outfit choices on the whim. I can never plan out my outfits ahead of time. It makes my head hurt too much. My outfit today went something a little like this:

Asos Pleated Top with Black Tie Sash - Out of Stock. Similar here in cobalt

Ralph Lauren Houndstooth Pencil Skirt from Macy's - Mine is actually a similar skirt, a "vintage" Express skirt

Vince Camuto Black Pumps - Got mine from Nordstrom Rack for $40

Blue Blazer similar to Anh's from 9to5 Chic - Got mine from H&M for $15

I decided to tuck my blouse in, wear the blue blazer over it, and add some nice pumps to the mix to give me some height. I also had my hair up in a messy bun similar to Keiko Lynn's and I was good to go! Got a few compliments today. Always a good feeling.
