Selita's Teal

So there's not too much to say about this look.




I saw Selita's teal Roberto Cavalli and loved it!  I needed a dress for a wedding I was attending.  I figured this color would stand out but not overshadow the beautiful bride. (congrats to them by the way!)  It's a gorgeous fall color and I love jewel tones for the fall. I ended up finding a dress from Vera Wang's line at Kohl's..  It fit like a dream and the color took my breath away.  I added some skin toned stockings because it was cold, but I probably could have done without them. 

Happy Holidays :)

Faux Leather Shift





 

I seriously love leather (well, faux in my case) clothing. I've tried a leather skirt, have several (faux) leather jackets, and I even have two leather vest (sadly, no leather pants-they either give me a weird crotch look (lol) or they don't come up past my thighs :(  The only things left to try were a leather top (which I'm working on finding) and a dress-which I now have.  And since they're making leather pieces in colors other than black, I decided to do a colored leather dress.  All of the looks featured are outfits I've seen and liked so I pretty much took inspiration from them all. However, the Celine blue shift that Katy Perry is wearing matches the style of the dress I wanted, and any dress that was a fall color was close to what I pictured myself in.
The dress I'm wearing is a faux leather shift from Arden B.  It's faux leather in the front and ponte knit in the back, which is good because I'm convinced I would have either suffocated or not been able to fit it if it was all leather!

 (Sorry for the plethora of pics but I just couldn't narrow it down!!! )
