Thakoon Boots

When you're wearing a fringe skirt as lovely as this one by Isabel Marant you can't help but do some shaking.

Isabel Marant Skirt

 

Last time I wore this fringed leather skirt I really dressed it up with patent heels and a Chanel necklace.  This time I dressed it down by pairing it with a boxy cable knit sweater and some chunky ankle boots.  Try doing the same for your leather skirts so you can take them from day to night.  You can subscribe to my YouTube channel to see all my videos.

When I was featured in amNewYork along with some other fashion bloggers I was asked to name an item on my wish list and I said it would have to be this Isabel Marant fringed leather skirt.  Well, I guess my boyfriend heard me because he got it for me for Christmas and I was beyond ecstatic to receive it.  It is one of those pieces that I will never get sick of simply because it has fringe.  This is my first piece ever by Isabel Marant and the quality is amazing.  I did some dorky twirling moves so you could see the fringe skirt in action.

I kept the look simple by pairing it with an overworn James Perse v-neck tee.  I definitely need more fitted t-shirts in my wardrobe.  I went crazy getting a lot of loose, oversized ones, but sometimes when the skirt is busy or full you need something form fitting on top.  I have a lot of trouble finding outfits to wear with these Giuseppe Zanotti colorblock lace-up sandals, but when I put together this outfit I just walked into my closet and saw these shoes sitting in the 'worn once' pile and I thought, finally, I found the perfect outfit for them.  I think they really offset the feminine mini skirt.  I call them my tuxedo shoes and I really like the masculine vibe.   For jewelry I thought I needed a necklace and to make the outfit even more girly I chose this bow pearl Chanel necklace.  I like wearing a huge statement necklace with v-neck tops and this was no exception.
