Two Black Friday Bargains - Multiple Looks

The excitement of a bargain, especially when it's something you've had your eye on for a while, is an adrenaline rush of the best kind.  I went out with the intention of buying the Baubebar bib necklace and the Zara metallic pleated skirt, unsure whether they would still have my size, be available, or even be on sale for Black Friday, and I am happy to say, I was lucky with all of the above!

Glamorous Night Out 

​The first outfit, perhaps my favorite, I consider an evening affair.  Date night, girls night out, any night out.  I love the rock star edginess the Baublebar necklace adds with the leather jacket and the strappy heels.  The glitzy shine and the flirty swirl from the Zara pleated skirt adds so much glamour in a retro kind of way.

​Smart Casual

This smart casual look can be worn with either flats, heels or booties.  During my personal fashion show, (which is when I get home with something new and I try it on with everything in my closet) I found it looked good with all different types of footwear, as well as a chunkier sweater if you wanted to make it a little more cozy.  You don't even have to keep it monochromatic, a burgundy sweater looks gorgeous with the skirt and the necklace for this time of year.

​Street Style

The next outfit is my dressed down street style look.  Plain white T, white sneakers and a denim jacket.  It also looks cool with a bomber jacket.  The skirt and the necklace add the pizzazz to the overall look. This is so fun to wear.  It makes me feel young and glamorous all at once, like I could tackle anything, certainly the sneakers are going to help you run for the metro if you're a little behind schedule!  But it's just flirty,  youthful and such a cool look.

I'd already given a lot of thought to the Baublebar bib necklace and the Zara pleated skirt.  Since first setting eyes on them, way before Black Friday, I'd already had tons of ideas how I could wear these two pieces. So, the moral of this story - go into Black Friday with a plan!
