Texture Play

When it comes to my winter wardrobe, sometimes I feel slightly uninspired.  I quickly tire of all the layers & dark colors and would so much rather put together spring looks (as evidenced by several of my recent posts).  But when I saw this photo of Olivia Palermo, I knew it was just what I needed to break out of my rut.  Mixing leather & fur together creates the perfect blend of texture and warmth for our still-cold & occasional snowy weather.  (Yes, I am wearing my fur vest again – sorry for the repitition.  But, even I have been surprised by the versatility of this piece!)

What I’m wearing:
Gap blouse (also worn with fur here), Forever 21 skirt (similar), Fabulous on a Dime vest c/o (on sale here), BCBG necklace & pumps, Urban Expressions clutch (here), Forever 21 bracelet

    NOw this is awesome…love how you paired that vest with the fun shoes!

    Favourite items deserve to be worn over and over again so I think it's great that you're showing us several different styles with the fur vest. Olivia P is a good source of fashion inspiration, we share a love of Reiss but she does get colours perfect for her skin tone too. I love your skirt here, I think I might invest in a leather style skirt myself for fall, so I will be checking out your similar versions.
