Fashionable Friends: Claire!

Goodness gracious, I can't believe that it's been 5 whole months since I've posted about my fierce, fashionable, friends. Well the wait is over, dear readers! This weekend, my glamazon girlfriend, Claire, showed up to work in this amazing ensemble. 


At first glance, this looks like a simple black skirt and white shirt....but if you take another look, you'll see that Claire is wearing an awesome scalloped leather skirt with pin-hole detail. Sweet!


Here's the rundown on Claire's outfit and some similar pieces for you to try!

The Shirt: Claire's white button down is a staple that she's had in her closet for quite some time. I love The Limited for a piece like this, as they always have different cuts for you to try; some more tailored and fitted and some more relaxed. Either way, you know that price will be great and you won't be getting a white button down that you can see your bra through!

The Shoes: Claire is a lucky girl and is gloriously tall. So she always looks statuesque, even in flats! Try a pair like this...at a price so nice!

The Skirt: Claire got her skirt from BCBG, and while the point of this blog is to be able to showcase fashionable finds at a low price- sometimes you just have to invest a little bit of cash on a great piece. But for this skirt, there are just no substitutions. I want the real thing! The best part about this skirt is that it ranks pretty low on the 'way-overpriced' scale. The more I think about it, it's actually a steal!


One thing that I really love about this outfit is it's simplicity and versatility. Throw on a ridiculously chunky turquoise necklace or black tights, pumps, and a bright scarf. Add a fur vest in the winter or a cropped denim jacket in the spring. Wear it with a shrunken sweatshirt for a chic casual date look, or a sequined tank for a Girl's Night Out....the possibilities are infinite!
