Who doesn't love paisley especially when its in such vibrant colours? Many people usually opt for the dark and gloom during the cold season (I, myself, am a suspect) but I'm changing that with a pop of colour. I fell in love with the skirt and I used that as a foundation of this outfit. As you may have notice, I do like to do a statement piece followed by basics that you may already have in your closet. I paired the skirt with a cozy black knit, I especially love the crystal detailing on the shoulder. Such a big trend this season and it adds some sparkle in your closet. I also fell in love with boots that has a gold tip. I need to get me one of those. It's so elegant yet edgy because of the suede. I topped it off with an army green beanie along with a pom pom to keep you warm and some striped tights that will elongate your legs. Keeps you warm and makes you look good too.
I am a big fan of gold... I switched out most of my silver jewelry for gold. I don't know why but I feel that gold creates a classic and more elegant look. Then when you add some black - you get glam. I naturally wouldn't opt for a printed pair of jeans but how can your resist a gold embroidered pair that's just beckoning your name. I actually realise that pants/jeans can be your statement piece. So, of course, with a lot of gold in the jeans, you should keep it simple with your top, a black tunic would make your jeans stand out. I added a necklace that is simple but it also evokes a statement. I paired it with these adorable burgandy ballerinas to add some colour. Throw on a leather jacket and you are ready for a night out with your girl friends or a movie date with your guy.
