Leather & Lipstick

Give me some red lipstick and a leather jacket and this
little lady get sassy!

I didn't realize how much attitude I was exuding until I began editing these photos. It's kinda funny how much spunk a leather jacket can bring on. I have to tell you though, I am obsessed with this leather jacket. It's a Forever 21 creation (go figure) but I bought it at Plato's Closet with the tags still attached! I love that it's leather, but the sleeves are a knit. I hate tight, constricting arms on anything, so I love that the arms on this jacket are super comfortable. The only problem I have with this jacket is, that, it's too dang hot to wear yet! Apparently LA missed the memo that fall has arrived! In the past 3 months there has been one day where the temps dropped below 77. Most days it's upper 80-90's. I am so incredibly tired of this grossness. I demand Fall temperatures ASAP!!

  10. I love the contrast of the tough leather and the sweet polka dots! I think I need to move to Cali because I'm already hating the cold weather here in Jersey. I'd kill for it to be 80 again!

  21. Love your black and white look! And those shoes are amazing! ;)
    I got my leather jacket from Walmart two years ago (crazy, I know) and I love it! ;)There is just something about a leather jacket that makes every outfit awesome. (With the possible exception of jammie pants and uggs - nothing makes that outfit awesome.)
