Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Kor @ Kor black wool/rayon blazer with attached vest, The Limited black satin cigarette trousers, Adele Fado leopard print satin tunic with black lace trim, Louboutin black sueded hidden platform pumps and Tous leopard print calf hair and brown leather bag. A large red VEDA silk/cashmere (pashmina) scarf, pearl/gold shoulder duster earrings and red ceramic and rhinestone bangles accessorized today’s outfit.


 A few posts ago, I had said, (paraphrashing) "........if you find a brand that fits, go for it". I was referring to suits, which can be a bit challenging finding the right fit and feel, but the same applies to most tailored items: blazers, trousers, vests, etc. I'm breaking my arm patting myself on my back right now, as I'm practicing what I preach. Today's blazer Kor @ Kor. So was yesterdays!!


Note: I'm struggling with the lighting in my  pics tonight. I really need to work this out!!

Tip: Leopard print can be a bit overpowering. I like to tone it down a bit with one of the neutrals - black, brown, beige, grey. Then - a pop of color like red (shown here), orange, yellow or even white - this really does it for me.

  1. The pashmina is really the perfect touch. Great red/print combos!!! And of course the red background made for an ideal backdrop!
