sheer fun

Oct062010_0054
I felt a combination of sass and complete comfort in this outfit. I went shopping earlier in the week and tried to buy more colorful clothes, but of course I gravitated towards black and bought the black sheer top. I imagine myself wearing this a variety of ways, so I can guarantee you'll see it a couple more times. Not as many times as you've witnessed these boots though! Hehe!

I'll be off to Detroit for the night once I'm out of work. I'm super pumped because A.) I love detroit. It's awesome and B.) I get to see my fabulous friend, Erin and go shopping. My friend Travis reluctantly handed over his credit card to me so I can do his clothing shopping for him when I head to Detroit. God help me, I need to get him some semblance of a personal style. Ladies, what do you like seeing guys dressed in?

I love this outfit! The sexy sheer skirt and the sweet bow scarf is a perfect match!
And I'm a fan of guys in nice jeans and casual button ups. Not too preppy, but not too messy.

Great outfit! That's a wonderful combination: the black and the peachy beige.

And, what do I like to see guys dressed in? NOT a t-shirt and baggy jeans. Ugh. How 'bouts a nice button-down shirt, TAILORED jeans (not skinny jeans), and some nicer shoes. I'm down with that.
