Sequins and Sea Breezes: Shades of Gray

Shades of Gray

1/28/2014


Ok, so it's not quite 50 Shades of Gray (is any one going to see that when it comes out February 14th??) but I did decide to go a bit monochrome with this outfit. I love faux leather so when I saw this 3/4 length faux leather sleeve sweater from H&M I immediately loved it. It's a lightweight sweater so it definitely isn't the best for those super chilly days but it's perfect for the Florida "winters" and a spring or fall day up north. I decided to continue with the faux leather look by pairing the sweater with my favorite faux fur leggings and a black and white aztec infinity scarf my mom got me for Christmas. I even went monochrome with my accessories, grabbing my gray purse and black and gold jewelry to go with it so my only pop of color was from my red lipstick (totally channeling my inner Taylor Swift here). I got this lipstick in one of my BirchBoxes and I absolutely love it. It's a matte finish with super vibrant hues that stays on forever! Even when I got home and wiped it off my lips were still slightly tinted red. Definitely a recommendation if you don't want to reapply your lipstick throughout the night!

    1. Aww thank you Tori!!! :) I saw the movie poster for it the other day but I still haven't seen a trailer for it! I'm hoping they release a trailer ASAP! I'm sure it won't be no where near as good as the book but I'm still definitely intrigued enough to go see it! :) Definitely try the lipstick! I love it! I even let Shannon (from http://www.upbeatsoles.blogspot.com) use it for NYE and I'm pretty sure she liked it too!
