BLACK LEATHER

Faux or not, black leather is without a doubt one of my guilty pleasures. Sure, the other colors are great but I always gravitate towards "the black."  I'm quite positive that I'm not alone on this particular desire for more leather and more black. I tend to incorporate leather in any look as much as I can to give that edgy flare that I endlessly adore.

It was a chilly day and I consciously put together this black number with an edgy outlook in mind. I had an urge to wear my oversized men's sweater, so like usual everything HAD to revolve around that one piece of clothing. Derived from that urge, is what we call one of my favorite comfort looks. Not bad right?

QUICK ERRANDS

The month of December calls for hectic schedules and last minute holiday errands. So, the question is, what do you wear? Even for that quick errand that you know you'll be back home in 20 minutes. The errand where no makeup nor hair product will be touched, let alone be glanced at. So, what will it be? 

I'm a true believer in looking presentable even on your quick errand runs. Not because of who I might bump into, but the fact that I, myself DO NOT want to look like a complete and utter bum. It's just not in my book, PERIOD. So, when a no makeup and no hair plug-in operated product is in order, I love to throw on that beat up baseball cap. To you know...hide the necessary. It changes lives, I'm tellin' you! You don't want people to see the no make-up effort so what better way then to hide just a bit.

From the neck down, it's a different story. Oversized men's sweater and fabulous boots. Simple, yet to the point! I mean, you're running an errand for goodness' sake. An all black comfortable yet chic effort and a hat, and we have here a fantastic "I'm in a hurry, gotta do this quick errand" look.

OVERSIZED

Oversized men's sweater is what you need for the chilly weather. Not only is it comfortable and warm, but I've written awhile back (here) of how a woman can transform her look with just a few pieces from a man's wardrobe.  This men's Calvin Klein sweater is one of my favorite go-to sweaters for fall.
