Sometimes, I put on an outfit – and it just works……..no effort, very little thought, but it all just comes together. The key is to try to achieve this on the regular. It can be a bit tough, maybe even challenging, but it’s doable.

Ms. Aikasha is wearing a BCBGeneration green wool, military inspired short coat, Moda International for Victoria Secrets  black silk and lace puff sleeved tunic, YMI black button hem cotton/lycra leggings, Cuore & Pelle black and blue leather handbag and Coach green and blue snakeskin platform pumps.

Accessories included pearl and gold shoulder

 duster earrings, Coach black leather gloves,

 black and clear Lucite bangles, 

and a black rayon scarf.

Ms. Aikasha is wearing an a Express lavender cashmere sweater (I added the feathers), a Ms. Aikasha black wool mini skirt, Pollini burgundy leather knee high booths with bronze metal discs and yellow wooden heel, and Maxx New York burgundy pebble grain leather handbag.

This Vakko mandarin collar, gold leather coat is lightly padded so it can be worn three seasons.

Accessories include a natural amethyst necklace and bracelet, tiny pearl earrings, yellow leather gloves and a blackish/brownish sheer silk scarf.

These yellow leather gloves (a gift from my boss's wife) sort of took the "pop of color" to the hilt - I Love them! They also picked up on the  yellow wooden heels on these Pollini  knee-hi leather boots

Ms. Aikasha is wearing an original Ms. Aikasha burgundy cotton tweed long bell sleeved hooded dress, Rachelle the original leather store long black leather jacket, Stuart Weitzman black patent leather platform booties, and Cuore & Pelle  black and blue leather handbag.

I have a penchant for hoods. When I started designing clothes, just about everything I made had a hood – except skirts and trousers, lol!!

A burgundy silk paisley scarf, Hue red wool legwarmers, azure blue leather gloves, and small red agate earrings were the accessories for this look.

The red legwarmers, red agate earrings, and the red piping in the hood of this Ms. Aikasha dress subtly all come together 

I decided to change things up bit today. It really wasn’t feeling like dress ‘down’ Friday – the sun was bright, the air was crisp…….so I decided to dress “UP”!!

Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Love Stitch slate blue tweed oversized wool blend cowl neck tunic sweater with exaggerated asymmetrical hem, YMI blue jeggings, The Limited brown leather/Sherpa vest, Patrizia Pepe grey suede down filled boots, and Adrienne Vittadini jet black hair calf handbag

Long azure blue leather gloves, sky blue glass bangle, large pearl and silver earrings and Tom Ford shades accessorized todays “dressed for winter even though it’s spring” ensemble. 

I fell in love with this sweater when I saw it and simply had to have it……..I’m still patting myself on the back J

Tip: Its a good time to make purchases for next winter - ALL the stores/sites are having terrific sales and clearances right now. I bought this Love Stitch sweater thinking "next year" - Who would've thought we'd still be experiencing 30 degree temperatures in the Spring?? It's fine with me though - a perfect excuse to wear this 'hot' number!

Hey there! It's been a while!! I had to take some time to 'handle my business'.........

Ms. Aikasha is wearing a Prada off-white down filled cropped jacket with oversized knit collar, Dana Buchman long black pencil skirt with one pocket, A&E black long sleeved cotton t-shirt, Manolo Blahnik teal suede pumps and Coach  gold leather limited edition tote.

  A Gucci gold leather belt, sheer black/brown silk scarf, Coach  black leather gloves and  gold hoop earrings accessorized the day's look
