Ruffles + Leather



I am honored to be guest-posting over on Send The Trend today, talking about some of my favorite trends for the season.  Since I’m perpetually drawn to more feminine styles, I fell in love with all the ruffled pieces that came down the runways at Gucci, Balenciaga & Chloe (to name a few).  So when I found this top for less than $40, I couldn’t resist scooping it up. I’ve worn twice with white wide-leg trousers & black skinny ankle pants…but this time I paired it with a faux leather pencil skirt for a sophisticated night-out look.  Head over to the STT blog to see the second more casual look I put together and be sure to follow along as take over their Instagram feed all week long with #PennyPincherSTTyle!



What I’m wearing:
Mango top (similar here or here), Forever 21 skirt (similar here or here), Guess heels c/o TJ Maxx (similar here or here), Stripes & Sequins earrings (here), c/o T+J Designs cuff (similar here or here), c/o Send the Trend clutch (here; also in nude; fuchsia & black), Lips: CoverGirl Lip Perfection Enchantress, Nails: Sally Hansen Coral Reef

    really gorgeous! i love the minimal metal cuff – i just bought a belt from zara with a metal plate thing (not sure how else to describe it) across the front which has the same vibe and i'm excited to wear it.

    For the tiniest split of a split second, when I scrolled down I thought you were bottomless. Phfew, just a nude-ish color skirt. It looks great on you, and I'm relieved to know this didn't become a different kind of blog overnight. Love that ruffle top too!

    This outfit is so feminine and beautiful on you. Did you get this blouse a while back or is it still in the stores?

    Ummm, adorable outfit and all but… Eastman Theater! I'm a huge fan of your style and your blog, but what keeps me coming back is that you live in the area I grew up in. Rochester is so much more than the tan girls at the mall in Ugg boots. Thanks for representing!!!
