Something Old, Something New

Monochrome Moment Mixing Prints and Patterns

Hey guys, I am here with my second post of this new year, and because you guys are so near and dear I wanted to make sure that you were aware of an organization and brand that's stellar. 

In this post, I am wearing a beautiful geometric patterned Tahari dress that I scoured during a sale at my local Dress for Success office.   I stopped by to make a donation, and to my surprise they were selling a few items, in an effort to raise money for clothing to accomendatewomen needing larger sizes.  I also brought this vintage pair of authentic Prada mules for a steal.  All of the pricing was more than reasonable.   The shoes had never been worn, and neither had the dress.  The striped shirt that I paired with my amazing dress is an oldie from Zara.  I love wearing black and white, and thought it would be a very interesting look if I mixed the prints and patterns.

I am also donning a beautiful pair of Berkshire hosiery, yes the Berkshire that our mom's love.  The brand has been around for over 100 years as the finest made, best fitting, and most fashion forward hosiery on the market.  Perfect for work, play, dress-up, bridal, daytime, evenings, weekends or holidays, the 2016-2017 Berkshire Collection features hundreds of individual looks that are available in regular, curvy and maternity options.  Visit them online at www.eberkshire.com

Wacky Holiday Outfit

Tis the season guys, so I am back with another outfit post.  However, this post serves a different purpose meaning that it's not meant to be so cute.  This is an outfit that I would wear if I were invited to a holiday party that I didn't want to go to.  It's sort of meant to shame the person that's making me tag along. hahaha. Have a looksie, and tell me what you think of the outfit.

Looking back on these pictures, I actually like this outfit alot.  Maybe minus the oversized sweatshirt, but still a great look.  Those tights are so festive and cute, and my black brogues are second to none in my wardrobe.  I scored the tangerine rollneck at my local Salvation Army on 50% off day, and I have been wearing it non-stop every since.  The satin skirt is an oldie, but goodie from The Gap.
