Maxi skirt for Fall

A look I'm loving right now is the maxi dress/skirt and how it's being styled for Fall. I've seen it in magazines, blogs and on some real ladies in NYC and decided to give it a try. I usually steer clear of maxi dresses/skirts since I'm only 5' (yep, I said it, 5' and no inches) but I figured with a great pair of tall boots or wedges, maybe I could pull it off. Here's my take on it and I paired my maxi skirt, which I picked up last summer at NY & Company with one of my favorites, stripes! ( and that's my other favorite, my doggie Louie!)

Loving (faux) Leather

Just wanted to make a quick post of my outfit from last night. Hubby and I headed to the city for some drinks and dancing for a good friend's bday. I wanted my look to be a little edgy since we were heading downtown, so decided to wear my new faux leather mini I picked up from F21. I must say, for about $20 it was a great buy. The skirt is fully lined and not a light, flimsy material and does not look shiny or plastic looking at all. I paired it with a silky racerback black and white tank I picked up at Target, added opaque black tights and my Me Too black booties, some accessories of course and BAM, ready for a night out on the town! I also decided to be a little daring and wear my most favorite MAC red lipstick called Ruby Woo. Sorry for the fuzzy pic.









Have a great, rest of the weekend!
