Simple Leather...

Dress-Simply Be, Shoes-Cynthia Vincent (Similar and Similar), Necklace-Loft (old), Sunnies-BCBG(old)



Last month I won this a dress from Marie Denee’s Simply Be Dress Giveaway and since I am the worst at buying what I deem to be basic items for my wardrobe, I decided to get this black faux leather dress. It is the perfect piece that can go from casual to dressy with the change of a shoe. Versatile and simple pieces can act as the cornerstone of a wardrobe. When I found out I won the dress I looked at every bright, shiny, printed dress before I decided to go with this dress in my favorite shape and material.  I have a tendency to go for the bright, shiny objects forgetting about the basics, leaving a few holes in my wardrobe.

I opted to go casual with the piece and paired the neutral dress with my leopard slip on sneakers. I was extraordinarily comfortable and felt chic. This dress is beyond easy to wear so I know that I will get a ton of use out of it.

Is there anything that you are bad at buying? Are you working to change this?

Thank you for reading!!!

  1. Congratulations on your win, Jeneise! That dress is awesome and looks great on you! I tend to do that with shoes. I always seem to be drawn to 5 inch heels knowing that I can't wear them everyday. I am working on buying more basic everyday shoes like flats and even sneakers every now and then. LOL!

    1. I do too Delilah!!! I also buy the most impractical shoes and wonder why I don't have what I am looking for. For example I never, every buy black shoes... it's so ridiculous! I have to do better.

  2. Yes I am very bad at doing the exact same thing!!!! This dress is a perfect basic and you rocked it!!! I love the notion that it can be dressed up or down. And I wish I could have gotten my hands on this hot little number.

    1. Thank you Timeka! I am trying to do better, but I especially like to put as many versatile pieces in my wardrobe as possible. I love that I could dress it up and down too.

  3. I love it!!!!!! This year and last year I've gotten MUCH better about buying more basics but I still have a problem with when I like something getting it in every color then when I hate it I have to trash like 3 or 4 of the same item in different colors lolllll
