Cape Blazer: Birthday Edition

 

 

 

Hello, Everyone!!!

 

 

I can wear leather any day out the week but on my birthday it made me feel quite sexy. As I get older, I don't feel the need to go on a mad dash to find the perfect "birthday" outfit. This year I decided to put together a sexy leather outfit with pieces I already owned. My foundation pieces included a leather sleeve graphic T-shirt and pencil skirt. I layered a peplum top over the T-shirt to give the illusion of a leather peplum dress. The only new edition to this look is a cape blazer from Who What Wear collection for Target  when I purchased it at the beginning of the month I had no idea I would wear it on my birthday but it just made sense. The Who What Wear collection is full updated basics and I want it all. Particularly I have my eyes on the cobalt blue moto jacket and the floral pencil skirt which I would probably wear together or separately. The boots are semi- new as well since I have yet to wear them. I swapped out my school bag for a small black clutch and violia I was ready to celebrate my day in style.

Hello, Everyone!!!!. 

 

Today I turn 28 years old!!!. I can't believe I am two years away from being 30 however I am definitely grateful to live to see another year. I'm not a big birthday party person because I do not like going to clubs. Normally I just have birthday dinner and drinks with family or friends to celebrate my day. However my boyfriend has made secret plans for me this year. Cue the song, "I'm so excited and I just can't hide it".  The only thing I have to do now is put together an amazing outfit that can get me through the night which I'm still debating as we speak. Now let's get into my last outfit as a 27 year old woman. Although it was very cold yesterday as you can tell by the wind in my hair, I refuse to put away my summer skirts. You can not tell by the photos but I found a cool way to wear this thin midi skirt by wearing skinny jeans underneath rather than stockings which currently I am on the hunky for the perfect skin tone tights to wear with non black skirts and boots. I paired the skirt with a chunky turtleneck sweater dress that I tucked in the front to wear as a top. Finally I accessorized with a oversized wrap coat and cognac accessories.

Hello, Everyone !!!.

Midi skirts are a curvy girl best friend. Although midi skirts may seem matronly but for as far as I can remember I always loved a skirt with a little flare that hugs my hips. When you wear full skirts, it is important to show some skin so I decided to wear a fitted cardigan that I unbuttoned to show some cleavage. When it comes to layering outerwear in the winter you can layer your favorite spring jackets such as denim or leather jackets under your wool coats. I decided to layer a denim jacket under a brown overcoat that I accessorized with a faux fur scarf. It was a very warm last weekend so I skipped the tights and choose a pair of cognac booties that matched the stripes in the skirt.
