Another challenge/Remix from IN-FB and exciting as ever…Black and White! There are infinite possibilities with this combo ..black pants, white
pants, dresses, scarves, bags..OMG the list goes on and on! It was pure madness
when I sat down to think about a look for this challenge. Well, but I had sorta
decided the guidelines for this challenge for myself - pair items that were never
worn before or even items that were never paired before. So there it was now,
much simpler and focused.
With the criteria narrowed down, I decided to go with my new
purchase black tiered chiffon skirt that I shopped on TV. Yes you got it right,
shopped on TV!! Well ok, I bought it online but I was TV shopping for sure on a
network called ‘HSN’. I discovered HSN I think sometime last year while
flipping through channels, and since then I have been switching to HSN on and
off. But since the down time (got off the work grind) I could watch some of their
interesting shows and this is where I spotted this skirt. I was looking for one
and decided to take the plunge – looked it up online and ordered it to be
shipped to our new apartment in Virginia (well I was in between shifting to our
new place, but I was not going to let go of such a good deal:)) I was happy
with the skirt when it arrived, it fit me great, and I can already see it worn
100 different ways. It is definitely - a wardrobe essential! It was not trans-p
so no needs-of-the-skirts-slips ;)
I went with the skirt and my fav polka dot blouse n black
vest. Polka dot blouse/top is another wardrobe essential – who doesn’t love
polka dots, man!! I threw in some accents with a cute red wristlet and red
pumps. For jewelry, I went neutral with silver n white.
The black skirt was a catch,
and it’s a boon on those days of summer – when you are too lazy (or busy) to
shave/wax but hell, you don’t want to miss out the fun of wearing skirts!! ;)
Well peoples, what do you think of this look? Do share your
