Leopard and Fringe + WIWW Link Up

It's Wednesday and that means it's "What I Wore Wednesday Link Up"!  Today I shot my first blogger photos with the help of my talented little sister (thank goodness she has a degree in art and was totally up for helping me out); and good lord it was cold out!

And, because I'm new to the blogging game, I didn't really have anywhere to shoot (and the backyard isn't very spectacular in winter, when everything is dead, ugh), but I had a great time hanging out with my sister.  I'm a little intimidated about doing more shoots, but I'm excited at the same time to keep trying and learning what does and doesn't work!

Top: Ann Taylor find from a few months ago (LOVE the faux-leather sleeves!)

Skirt: Ombre Fringe skirt // Ann Taylor

Shoes: Leopard loafers are an old Target find from a few months ago (I have a matching black pair too!)

Watch: Cecil Multifunction Stainless Steel Watch // Fossil

Glasses bracelet: Goreski Glasses Bangle // Kate Spade

Faux Leather Sleeves OOTD

Loving my OOTD so much that I had to share the details!  I got this striped faux-leather sleeved top over the weekend on sale for only $15!!  And good news, it's still on sale (so scoop it while you can)!!

This is the first time I've posted my OOTD on my blog, so some of my pieces aren't available anymore, but I did try to find similar pieces to share with you guys!  :)

Faux-Leather Sleeved Striped Top from Ann Taylor (with an extra 60% off at checkout!!!)

 Jacquard Rose Pleated Midi // A-Line Midi // Full A-Line Midi
I couldn't find my original skirt, but I did find some great look-alikes from ChicWish!

These bright red Caera tassel suede flats, from Sole Society, would add a great pop of color! (And I just love tassels on my shoes--such a great and sophisticated touch!

I absolutely love my Goreski Glasses bangle from Kate Spade.  It's one of my main staple accessories.  It's cute, quirky, simple and you can wear it with almost anything!
