Mood: Peppy
Weather: Sunny, Chillier, Windy
Outfit Purpose: Dinner with Friends
Style Savvy: Leather, faux leather, vegan leather … whatever your moral preference – is a must have for your wardrobe. Garments that are mixed with a combo of leather and [fill in the blank fabric] isn’t going away. This will continue to appear in collections more so than ever. YES invest in a piece that has this fabric combo like a pencil skirt, flared skirt, leggings or jacket. The pencil skirt I’m wearing today I bought over a year ago (maybe 2 years ago) as you can see it’s still relevant. I paired it with my SINGLE sheer chiffon top, Sole Society heels and vintage necklace (from the early 80’s). Sidebar: Anything more than 20 years old is technically vintage. This messes with my brain because I still think of vintage from the 60’s and earlier not early 80’s…yikes!
Personal Style: Girls Night
Thoughts: What a relief to know that feelings come and go. When I’m having a not-so-good/negative feeling, I acknowledge it instead of trying to get rid of the feeling as quickly as possible. I find when I do this, the negative or blah feeling dissipates quicker than if I try to ignore it. If you’ve been reading this column daily, the past few days my mood has been blah. Today I’ve got a pep in my step, despite major sneezing fits from my allergies (it’s been windy in San Diego). I’m ending my night early because have to get up at 5:30am to glam up for some on-camera action at XETV news station for a style segment on Wake Up San Diego.
When I’m doing what I love and helping others either with advice, sharing my experience or by way of action, that’s when I feel the most complete. It also doesn’t hurt to have a sassy pair of high heels on your feet, shiny arm candy on your wrist and some red lipstick on your lips to put that extra frosting on your cupcake (wink).
