Ways to Wear It: Leather & Knits Part 2

Leather Skirt 

     Hello again! Here is the second blog in my Leather and Knits blog series. In the last blog I showed you two looks with Leather shorts. In this blog I will be showcasing my favorite leather piece which is this amazing pencil skirt I got from Forever 21 earlier this year. I've worn this skirt on many occasions and honestly it's one of my favorite pieces to style because it is so versatile and comfortable to wear. It even has pockets and a thin lining on the inside to keep your skin from sticking to it. Even though it is long it gives me a nice silhouette which is all you need sometimes. 

Ways to Wear It: Leather & Knits Part 1

 Leather Shorts

    I really love wearing leather and as you know it is very popular right now. I found myself having
collected quite a few leather pieces so I decided to create different looks for each. In part one I will show you two looks I created with leather shorts. Hopefully this will give you ideas on how to style the items you already have or persuade you to go out and get some. In my opinion it won't be money wasted.

Outfit of the Week: Casual Prep

 



  This was my outfit of choice to wear back to work after being on holiday vacation. Despite me wearing a blazer, which can be restricting depending on it construction, this outfit is extremely comfortable. The blazer, which I got from Forever 21, is made out of a soft knit material which makes it both warm and allows the fit to feel more relaxed than your normal stiff suit jacket/blazer.

Tales From the Roots: Length Check and Update

   The fall season has really set in here in Chicago and the winter is coming quickly around the corner. With the brisk air and low humidity I decided that this was the perfect time to straighten my hair. So far I have only done this twice in my journey, once in April 2014 and now in Oct-November. The first time it only lasted about a week, maybe two because of the humidity but this time around I've been having more luck.

Product Review: Younique "Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes"

     If you have a social media account, namely Instagram, you have seen posts from popular pages raving about the Younique "Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes" for the past few months.
    Every post features a pretty girl with her eyes open wide, showing off thick, long eye lashes that unbelievably came out of a bottle. I went from becoming mildly interested to captivated when I saw a video review from one of my favorite YouTube personalities Miss Ken K. She loved the product of course but when she mentioned that this was a great alternative to false lashes I was sold.
    I recently received my order and was able to use it a few times. Keep reading to see my full review.
