Always A Leather Jacket

When in doubt. Wear a (faux) leather jacket.


I bought this glittery tank and leggings at my friend's boutique, The Charlemont. The leggings are not those thin little nothing leggings that are more like tights; these have good control, a wide waistband, and are made from a dense fabric that is not shiny or see-through.




The suede pumps are old from Saks Off 5th. The faux leather jacket is one that I got at Stein Mart last year. The clutch is from S.M. Bradford Co. Hilton Head Island. I wore crystal earrings and a couple of crystal rings to complete the look.



You need not spend a lot of money buying something for a special event you may never wear again. If you have a good selection of basics, you can get dressed for any event that comes your way.

Accessories and attitude make all the difference!


Happy New Year!

Hi Susan, Happy New Year! I wanted to let you know about a great pair of leggings/pants I own you might want to check out. I got them at JC Penneys (I like some of their merchandise) and they are the a.n.a. ponte knit pants. They fit like leggings and are a nice material, wide waist band, not see through or shiny at all. They have a 5 star review which is something I always take into consideration. They cost $36 but if you order on line you can get a coupon code for a percentage off. The on line item number is 8446910. Today (1/1/16) you can get 25% off.

Just wanted to let you know about these pants in the event you want to check them out. I own 2 pair and love them! They come in black (which I own), chocolate and gray.

Let me know if you try them!
