Sunday Look: Maxi Dress and Cape Jacket

Blogs, , , ,

Happy Sunday! Well it looks like Mother Nature threw us a curve ball and gave us some cooler weather.  That gave me an opportunity to wear something I may have not worn had it been warmer.

Today’s outfit is a Maxi Dress and Cape Jacket.  The dress has a faux leather top with an attached sheer skirt and built-in underskirt.  It’s also sleeveless, that’s why I added the cape jacket. Guess what? the cape jacket has “POCKETS”!  I could have worn a blazer or cardigan as well.

Like last week, my necklace is the real showstopper to the entire outfit.  I had a blank canvas in the faux leather top.  Just about any necklace would have worked.  But this particular one not only sparkled, but it filled in the space nicely.  Next, I added a wide belt, it was a nice contrast between the faux leather top and sheer skirt.   Additional accessories included two silver bangles, ring, watch and earrings with a little bling as well.  Since it was a little cooler I slipped on fishnet hose and patent leather platform (pointy toe) heels.

My Bag:  I had to keep the bling going…  I did that with a semi round clutch with tons of bling!  Who doesn’t like a little bling or in my case lots of bling?

Thanks Mother Nature for the cooler weather!

Sunday Look: Cape Jacket

Blogs, , , ,
Happy Sunday… My how time is flies, we are already halfway through this month.  Since we are having a “warm winter” 🙁  it’s kind of tough finding something to wear for the season.  That brings me to today’s outfit.  The Cape Jacket, I started admiring these cape jackets last winter.  When the time came to purchase one I was hesitant.  I loved them in print and on other people but I wasn’t feeling it on me.  But, I really like it.  I had to listen to my own motto “If you like it, wear it” So, that’s what I did today!
This cape jacket has a beautiful lace overlay and pockets. Upon purchasing I had no idea what bottom I would pair with the jacket.  One day I ran across this black/blue lace skirt and I immediately thought “this would go great with my cape jacket”… Today it all came together.
I LOVE THE LOOK…

To accessorize I decided NOT to wear a solid color shoes, only because there was so much Navy. The two-toned shoes added an extra shade of (blue)color.  I continued my accessories with multiple strand pearls.  I tried on about three different strand of pearls, but the multiple strand really made the outfit look “high fashion”  after all I am wearing a cape! 🙂 .
My BAG; keeping with the blue theme, I carried this satin blue clutch with a jeweled and gold tone closure.  Black would have worked as well.
Style Tip: I really think this cape could be toned down with a pair of skinny or wide leg jeans.  Accessories can make a HUGE difference on the type of look you get.  How would you restyle this cape?
