Tights x2: H&M (layered together). Jumper dress: Thrift. Jacket: Strawberry. Shoes: ACNE. Bag: Alexander Wang. Thin wool jumpers (not seen). Green stone ring: New Orleans. Snake ring: NY local shop. Shades: Ray Ban
I think I’m officially sequin addicted. The large knit on this jumper dress was the first attraction, but the all over sparkles confirmed it.
The faux leather ‘shearling’ motor jacket is one of those pieces I’ve always wanted, but I couldn’t find one that I loved (translation: could afford), so this faux version for $35 is a bargain.
Hang on, this is a re-occuring pattern too. Purchasing faux leather furry collared jackets. Remember this??
Any of you own faux leather jackets too?
ps. Thank you Essence magazine for the online feature!

Congrats on the Essence feature Karen! I love the polka dot tights. I have never tried layering tights, but maybe I will! Also, that jumper is pretty cute. I have the same faux leather zipper skirt you have from Urban, but that is my only faux leather piece. xoxo

the only faux leather piece i have is a bustier dress from h&m that zips up the front and i l o v e it! but dancing all night in it is so hotttt! lol. i’m drenched when i take it off, ewww.
i do have a lot of takes on the biker shape though. it’s so iconic. denim, cotton etc. your coat reminds of a sic leather jacket from aqua i left at bloomingdales during my last nyc trip. i should have bought it but i was trying to be good. my biggest shopping regret of the trip along with the red velvet floral prada bag…

great buys, the sequinned jumper dress and jacket. i like how the beige sleeves peek from under the jacket.
Ernest B. says:
That coat looks worth more than $35! Congrats on the ultra chic find! The ACNE boots are of course too much to bear! It’s like looking at the sun, in all its glory, you have to keep your eyes from staring directly into it’s wonderous glow.

I used to own a pink faux leather jacket. Had to let go of it since the sleeves cracked open on the shoulders. I was devastated… almost.
Meghann says:
I have a faux leather H&M jacket that I refer to as my “vegan” leather jacket. It’s warm and cute and it looks like the real thing – best thing about it was it’s $49.90 prcie tag!

where i’m from, it’s too hot for a leather jacket on most days, unless you’re in an air conditioned place or you’re prepared to have your clothes soaked with perspiration.
i do own a skin tight leather skirt though!
you have such an amazing outerwear collection!
