Happy Friday, I am so happy we made it! Let me start of today’s post by saying yes, this is definitely an unusual look for me. No, not because of the all black or because of the #leggingsaspants but because my top has writing on it. I am usually quite anti-graphic tee or anything of that sort. In fact, in seven and a half years of Sparkles and Shoes I have only worn a graphic tee once. However, there is something special about this sweater that made me buck my own trend.
There is something magical wearing all black and it brings me back to my New York roots, especially in this sweater which is a subtle nod to the city I love so much! It is also easy. Easy like my school uniform growing up when the only think you have to do is make sure they are the same shade of black (which yes, is actually a thing). For this look I like the pattern mixing of the wool sweater with the faux leather of the leggings and then the patent leather of the shoes.

That was an interesting post. I love your fashion style and I just fall in love with your earrings. These kinds of accessories are liked by people of all age groups. Especially, among the youngsters, the obsession for Such identity accessories including piercing jewelry has changed the style statements. A fashion accessory is a decorative item that supplements one’s outfit. An accessory adds color, style, and class in an outfit. Well, if I’d be asked to add accessories to my style, I would prefer labret piercing jewelry in the first place. The Eyebrow-Piercing have become very popular.

Perfect choice!!! This sweater looks so elegant on you. black is such a vibrant color and attractive too. Other thing that attracts me the most is the design. Perfect design makes the superb combination. For perfect shape, right size of bras plays an important role. So do try Sexy bras them and flaunt yourself freely.

I usually doesn’t like writing on my clothing either but this is a bit more clay.
I personally believe that you pulled it off nicely 👍

You are crushing this look.
Particularly liking the purse and of course the pop of color from those shoes in a couple of the shots. Well styled look.

I like the uptown sweater on you. A much elevated look from the more typical t shirt.
The T-shirt has limited places that I feel appropriate places to wear them. This look opens many more opportunities for me to wear it.

Such a different look for you.
Sleek and sexy. I like it as a mix up to your typical style.

Very sleek and different look on you. Your legs like 1,000,000 miles long. I also like the graphic top.
