Ms. Aikasha is wearing an original, Ms. Aikasha cream linen and silk knit tunic, black ribbed leggings, Oscar de la Renta beige alligator peep-toe sling back sandals, and a large cream Mazzini leather bag. Large mesh gold earrings and an armful of mixed media bangles accessorized today’s outfit.

A little back story about this tunic: It used to be a floor length sleeveless gown/dress with ruffled tulle inserts in the side slits. I wore the dress to a wedding (and was accused of upstaging the bride – that wasn’t my intention, honestly!! I felt terrible). The likelihood of wearing the dress again was slim to none – so I removed the tulle, cut the dress to its current length, and used the parts I cut off, as the vented sleeves you see here………….voilla!!

Note: Though I'm notorious for adding the "pop" of color - sometimes it's just fine to be be neutral. Don't force it - if it doesn't feel right, then it's just fine.
