Faux leather and lace

Every few days, seasons, years, whatever.... I have a new favorite type of fabric I love to wear.  For awhile now it has been lace and faux leather.  I love the cute, femininity of lace and the rough and tuff edge look of faux leather/real authentic leather.  Together it makes an awesome combination. (black on black on black, of course!)





I picked up this lace-front top with a faux leather collar at Target.  Target is always collaborating with different designers and the designer they have featured there at this time is Prabal Gurung.   Prabal Gurung was born in Singapore, raised in Nepal, and now resides in the lovely NYC.  He launched his  first collection under his own name during NYFW in 2009.  He is known for big celebrities wearing his designs like the beautiful Zoe Saldana, Demi Moore, and our first lady Michelle Obama.  I love how his collection range from dark tones to bright colors and always make a statement!


There are many ways you can put together this black lace front top.  You can pair it with a pair of liquid black leggings or even dark denim jeans (high waisted, skinny, whatever fits your style) wedges, booties, ANYTHING.  You can even go wild with accessories.  Maybe add a solid gold or silver collar necklace, or even spiked accessories to give it even more of an edge.  Check out his collection at Target here!



Here are some pieces from the Spring 2013 collection:





And here is a video of Prabal Gurung's Spring 2013 line.  Enjoy.

HALF OFF WEDNESDAYS!!!!


My favorite day of the week because I get to thrift at the local Salvation Army and get half price off on almost all the sweet items I find. (I get a call from my mother around 9am and she says, "Up early to go thrifting?". She knows me too well).








Just adventuring around the entire store searching for some treasures.
    
Here are the great finds I came home with:


  Jacobs By Marc Jacobs camo pants (from the mens section) to add to my upcoming shop to sell.  (Be on the look out for it)



Some awesome American pride tees!  
Right: Salvation Army (mens section)
Left: Lovely Ladies Consignment Shop (Today they started their 50% off Wednesdays as well)


I cannot wait to put an outfit together with that blouse! And you can never have enough black purses.


AND NEW BOOTS!! Too excited.  As if I even needed to add more shoes to my already overflowing collection.  And like I said in my previous post, do not be afraid to try on and purchase shoes!  You can always clean them, change the soles, and the laces.


Here is a close up of what I wore today on this gloomy/rainy/foggy day.

Black checkered top: Thrifted
Faux leather knee leggings: JCPenny
Spiked toe combat boots: F21
Rings: H&M and a local flea market


Hope you take out some time on your Wednesdays and see what goodies you can find for 50% off!
