Mood booster

With the weather being on the chilly side and the grey skies threatening rain, I was pretty much reaching for the same pair of jeans and flats day after day. I wasn't in the best of moods when I woke up the morning I wore this outfit, and blaming the lack of sunshine, the 'comfortable' clothes went on.

Running late (as usual) I gave myself one last glance in the mirror and felt so unhappy in those jeans, I had to change. Never mind the chill or the rain, as soon as I put on the skirt and the heels my mood elevated. It was the boost I needed, physically as well as mentally.

  3. That leather pencil skirt is stunning on you! I always have to wear pants/jeans in the rain...I hate the feeling of my legs getting wet!

  7. funny how changing a piece in your outfit totally changes your mood, haha. But it's so true and happens to me (although wearing the jeans is usually what makes me feel better)

  11. I have a similar leather skirt and wouldn't have thought to dress it down like this. I love the result! You look fabulous!

  12. This is why and where I think that fashion really MATTERS in life. A pair of shoes, a skirt, a dress, sometimes even those jeans can really make all the difference in a day, a mood or an interaction.

  13. This post reminds me why I love clothes in the first place - they really can change your entire mood!

    That jacket is so great - and it really does look great with the skirt!

  14. It's funny, I'm completely the opposite when it comes to getting dressed. When I'm happy and the sun is out, I'm glad just to throw on jeans, a t-shirt and go. Whereas on days when it's horrible out - and today is one of them - I start layering jewelry and pulling out my fullest skirts. Dressing up is how I cheer myself up when the weather doesn't cooperate. And it clearly worked for you here, because this outfit is pure fabulousness. I can't picture myself in a floral bomber and yet I love this one more every time you wear it!

  19. I love this pairing so much. I haven't had a chance to wear yet my leather skirt, just because it's a bit too chilly for bare legs&leather. Looking at your black skirt it makes me wish that I would pick up one in black as well. Looks so chic and relaxed with that gorgeous blue flower bomber. Hope soon lovely, sunny days will come to you.

  22. This weather needs to make up its mind, one day is raining, the next snowing and cold. Your floral bomber jacket is gorgeous, the color is perfect and it looks astonishing with the red bag and leather skirt.

  31. Sometimes pieces don't work and you have to change. It's happened to me many times.

  32. This happens way too often - i go back and change and then go back to the previous garment.
    Enter the elevator ready to go for work and when I get to the car i go back and change- or just feel miserable all day.
