Colorful Pleats

One of my all time favorite blogger Song of Style featured this dress on her blog back in January.  I was so excited as it was only $28 and available.  I can not compare to her in the combination of the bike, bag, and colorful background.  Since I love this skirt like dress that is flowy and comfortable, I thought I would give it a little New York weather for the office twist.

Dress and Leather

I love biker jackets, but I just don't know how to pull it off cool enough.  Let's face it, I am not tough, and I am not gonna pretend, so I thought why not make it feminine with a dress!!!  I picked up this leather jacket on sale at zara, it was another one of my impulsive purchases.  When the idea of pairing with dress came to me, I had to try it out!!!!

Chunky with mini {skirt}

I just talked about my passion for purple in this very recent post, and I guess my mind just wants me to put on purple again.  I paired this super chunky sweater with pink and purple dots with this mini skirt I wore oh so often this past spring and summer, which I am sure I wil continue to do so in 2012!

Now that I am looking at the pictures, I actually don't like the boots I put on for this outfit, oh well.
