OOTD: Slicker than your Average

OOTD Leather Pants

Leather pants have always been on my radar but I have never really thought of having one until now. It was one of those pieces I had a love and hate relationship with, and don’t ask me why, because I don’t know.  Anyways, I got my hands on a pair of leather leggings some days ago and I have so many different looks planned out with it in mind, starting with this look.

Leather Leggings

I have now discovered the power of a good pair of leather leggings and I am never looking back.

New OOTD Leather Look

We are know the power of a good pair of leggings, and how much of a wardrobe staple they are. Show me a woman who doesn’t have multiple pairs of leggings and tights in her wardrobe, and I will show you a woman who doesn’t know how to make the most of her wardrobe budget. These pieces have the power to make anyone look stylish on a budget.

Leather pants are as much as a necessity as a normal cotton leggings, if not more. A pair of leather tights or leggings has the power to take a look from plain, casual to a classic killer outfit. Leather pants are figure flattering and so easy to style. I styled mine with a crop knit top, chelsea boots, and a faux fur coat. I also added a pair of sunnies because the sun gets into my eyes……

January Fashion Wishlist 2016

January 14, 2016 By in Fashion Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 39 Comments

With the January sales in full swing, I am currently lusting after so many cool pieces and accessories, wishing I had an unlimited shopping budget. Almost everything has been seriously slashed, I am talking about 50% – 75% off the original prices, which is great news for us shopaholics. I know I said in my New Year Fashion & Style Resolutions, I will be reducing the amount of clothes I buy this year, because I currently have an insane amount in my wardrobe, but I also said I would be investing in high-end accessories, and playing around with my style a little, so a bit of shopping is required (wink wink).

So with my bank cards at the ready, here are the items on my wish list for January:

High Quality Sheep Leather Jacket with Zips £159 £119.99

Leather Jacket

This stylish Esprit leather jacket will fill a void in my wardrobe. Do you all remember the post I wrote about my Guess faux leather jacket? Well, I am still yet to replace my leather jacket, so grabbing this piece during the sale will be a good idea. I love the colour of the jacket a lot, and the whole zip detailing. It also looks like a good quality piece. In my head, I have styled this jacket up with pieces in my wardrobe already. I am eager to get my hands on this beauty.

 

Wool Blend Sweater Dress £55 £39.99

Sweater Dress

This Esprit wool blend sweater dress is right up my street. I can picture myself rocking this piece with black tights, knee-length boots and a scarf. I love the berry red colour, I have nothing like it in my wardrobe, and the wide scoop neckline is perfect for me. This sweater dress also comes in a taupe colour, but I prefer the berry red. Red is the colour of the season right?

 

Darci Stainless Steel Watch £259 £149

This Michael Kors stainless steel Darci watch is a beauty indeed. The Crystal embellished bezel gives the watch a stunning look. I also love the polished shine. This is on my watch list at the moment, my watch collection needs a new addition.

 

STEPHAN Wine High Heel £160 £119

This ankle high heel boots by Kurt Geiger is so easy on the eyes. I love the scarlet red block heel, reminds me of a Christian Louboutin. It will be nice to inject some more colour into my shoe collection this year, so I may be grabbing a pair.

 

Greenwich Black Mini Zip Tote Bag £205 £143

I am a DKNY lover so this eye candy had to be on my wish list. A classic handbag is always a good investment so it is no brainer really.  I love it.

 

What do you think of these items? Which is your favourite?
