“Fashion has always been a repetition of ideas, but what makes it new is the way you put it together.” ~ Carolina Herrera ~
A great example of this ideology is The Leather Jacket…
The leather jacket is a wardrobe icon!
This iconic piece known as the leather jacket has been lended to several different styles and subcultures over the years. It has been transformed again and again but it is a classic and it never goes out of style, even when people keep reinventing it…that is what fashion is! What makes it new is how one styles it and puts it all together like Carolina Herrera said.
Normally when I think of getting dressed up on a Sunday, leather necessarily does not come to mind. However, last week Barbi of Southern Blonde Chic inspired me to mix things up. Take a look, I know you will love Barbi’s dress too! Can we just talk about how GORGEOUS Barbi looks today in this beautiful shade of green!! I have shared with you all before how important it is to find colors that compliment your skin tone and hair color as it will totally enhance your true beauty! Barbi certainly has done that by selecting this amazing color. I also love how she added this gold chain belt to put her own touch on this outfit. Be sure to check out Barbi’s Post for today so you can get all the details of this beautiful outfit!
When styling my look I started first with this simple and beautiful deep blue gray Mendoza Dress from Peach. Believe it or not Peach is an athleisure brand. I am sure it is hard to tell, but my whole look is from Peach! Isn’t that fabulous?!
It is one of the reasons I love Peach, they always come out with pieces that can be styled more than one way. I knew I wanted to elevate my look and then it hit me to pair it with the Palermo Blazer also from Peach!
The dress and blazer combo is a great blank canvas that I popped with icy tones. The necklace is a bundle of a few different pieces that I have collected over the years. I found a similar one for you to shop!
To finish off my look I added a pair of snakeskin pumps and cute little beaded clutch. My accessories are no longer available…to be honest I bought them both on clearance a while back, but good news…
Here are similar items to shop: Shoes & Bag.
Stay tuned for another Sunday Best post with Barbi as we continue with this series!
Also, later this month I will be sharing more about Peach & how their looks are great for the Gym & Everyday Life!! I am excited to show you how to dress the Mendoza dress down for a more casual look!
