My hair is WHY-ULD in these pics! Whoa. Pass the Oscar Blandi Jasmine Oil, ASAP!
Anyway, if you can get past my lion’s mane, you’ll see that I’m wearing one of my new favorite dresses. I picked up this ZARA “leather” dress in the beginning of February and I absolutely love it. It’s perfect for adding a little bit of edge to your work wardrobe.

Hello hot tamale dress! You look great in it here, all styled for this supposed spring season, but I’m excited to see you style it when you don’t need 54318648 layers on to stay warm! Also, that lip color is yummy. Is it weird to say yummy about the color on another woman’s lips? Just know I’m not a creeper and I’d say the color was yummy if it was nail polish too!

Leather typically really intimidates me for some reason, but you pull it off so well. I love that you still incorporated preppy/girly elements.
Obsessed with this outfit!!
Love love love this outfit! I need some more leather in my life 🙂

I love this dress! I wish we had a Zara here (Nashville) … I always pop-in to the one when i’m in Orlando, such a great store 🙂
BTW – I dont know if anyone has told you this but you remind me of AnnaSophia Robb from the Carrie Diaries – just as fashionable too 🙂
i’m digging the edge on this but how you kept it a little girly and totally your style.

This outfit is sassy and glamorous! The gingham shirt and patterned tights play off of each other so well, and the pearls give a bit of femininity to the edgy leather. I love allll of your black & white combinations, but this may be my fav! So gorgeous! 🙂

I love this leather shift dress on you, and how you added in your girly touches such as a beautiful lip and fun, sparkly accessories. The leather, textured tights, and gingham shirt all mix beautifully and doesn’t look too busy. Great look, girl!!

I like how you understated the leather dress by wearing plaid…since its usually something you’ll see more worn during night time events. It works so well!
love LOVE this outfit, the print of the shirt/tights is great together. I like your hair straight, looks so long…beautiful lady 🙂

So cute!!!
Those stockings are so cute! They totally make the outfit. And I love this dress, it sort of looks like a leather dress Gap released about a year ago but much cheaper in price!
Gorgeous outfit and your hair doesn’t look messy at all!
I absolutely love this dress! It’s beautiful on you!
