I am a big fan of the leather leggings. And althought they may be a little intimidating at first, they are a perfect piece to have in your closet.
For mama's with their hands full it is an unexpected piece that can transition from day to night. Who doesn't love that!?!
Here I am sharing two looks, on how to take faux leather leggings from partayyy to brunch.
The first one I actually wore to a Mama & Me class and the second is how I will wear them for New Years Eve (minus the shoes and coat since we are staying in!).
The jacket (in look 2) is a vintage fur from my aunts collection, that she gave me years ago and I am rekindling my love for it. I use to wear it all the time in NYC and hope to wear it more often as I meet my goal of dressing more for ME in 2015! In other words, bring on the glares at the foodmarket! HA!
^ having way to much fun shooting pics with my step-daughter! thanks K!^

Oh and the hair!!! Totally an implulse moment the day after Christmas when I went in for a blowout and came out with a totally new me. I absolutely love it. Going back on Wednesday to tweak the color but I have been dying to try ombre and so happy I did. Now let's pray it grows on O...
Leather legging shopping tips: Try them on. Actually try a few sizes on. The faux leather front panel (like mine) provide extra stretch and flexibility. They were TJ Maxx Junior section, cheapo, buy for like 20 bucks but I love them. Here are a few other options I am looking at.
