In With A Bang

Monday, January 6, 2014


In honor of the new year, I thought it was only appropriate for my first outfit of 2014 to symbolize a fresh start, and I think silver is just the color for the job. Silver symbolizes power, maturity, and intelligence - not bad 2014, not bad. I already feel like this year is off on the right heel!  
I love how this necklace has a vintage flair and feels so art deco. It reminds me of roaring 20s glam but the style and shape of the piece is completely modern!
This subtle touch of leopard makes these wedges to die for! I was instantly hooked.
I wanted to stay with my silver theme so I layered on a bunch of silver bangles. 
A leather jacket is always the perfect accessory! I like to throw my black one over a dress to balance out the girlyness.

I wanted to start the year off on a powerful and impressionable note and what better way to do that than in metallics? Metallics speak volumes and demands attention. Accompanied by black, silver gives off an in-control and edgy vibe. 2014, I am ready for ya! 


Get inspired in metallics!
