Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Jon multi-floral velvet double breasted blazer, black glitter leggings, black peau de soie pointy sling back pumps (designer unknown), and Treesje  black studded leather handbag. A coordinating bright orange scarf and silver jewelry accessorize today’s look




Kudos to the designer that endorsed “leggings” as clothing. Leggings can be a lifesaver – they’re comfortable, practical, and when done tastefully, look amazing! Now, while I don’t condone wearing leggings as a replacement for jeans or trousers, (they’re just “not built that way”), I absolutely adore wearing them with a tunic (ref my Sep 13th post) or oversized shirt, or with a blazer as worn today.



 
 Note: My apologies for the blurry pics. I worked late,  it was pitch black when I got home...........

Tip: I recommend owning a few pair of leggings - especially black ones - they'll prove invaluable!

  1. Now I get it. I always wondered why I didn't like how leggings looked on me; I was wearing them with the wrong tops. I left a comment on the Sep 13 post, I remember it very well cause I was so impressed with your design. The comment didn't go through though, so I'll happily visit it again (I love both looks)!

    1. Nice! It's also size appropriate. If you're 5 ft tall and size "2" you can get away with wearing just about anything. Now if WE could only reach soooooo many women who are much, Much, MUCH, larger than a size "2" who insist on wearing leggings with a crop top!! :)
