With an Edge

November 19, 2012


I’m not sure why this has been the case, but if you’ve been reading my blog for a while you may know that some my sartorial choices have been uncharacteristically ‘edgy’ lately. Leather, studs and textures have been some of my favourite elements to wear, and often in multiples at a time. Since the majority of my wardrobe (and inherent style) is more on the feminine side, however, I’ve still been offsetting it with touches of ladylike tweed. Here are a couple of recent examples of that. Hope you have a good Monday!
One: YesStyle tweed jacket, BCBGMAXAZRIA leggings, Artessorio bag, Stuart Weitzman booties (on sale here!) / Two: Zara jacket and bag, YesStyle skirt, Schutz booties

    Tweed is probably one of the most feminine pieces you could add to an outfit.. other than a full tulle skirt, of course!

    I love the first outfit on you. You’ve certainly got your wear out of your faux fur vest!

    Well, your look has got a little bit darker and more edgy, but I think your combinations still gibe off that feminine vibe of yours and that’s a good thing! That’s your style and I totally love it – your style up to now and the change you’re currently doing!!

    I’ve really been enjoying your edgier ensembles. You pull them off just as well as your more feminine looks and the style is still very you. These two fabulous outfit sets really showcases your talent at styling, and why I love reading your blog 🙂
