Busy Lady

October 21, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Usually my style comes before anything else. But some days, I just have so much on my plate that I need to create an outfit to accommodate it all. Friday was one of those days, I had model casting, a study session, a date, and a party, and no time to run home and change in between. I wore this outfit because it could easily transition from one activity to the next, it’s super comfy (all knits!) but still looks chic and put together.

    You can never go wrong with a leather jacket. It spruces up almost any outfit! 🙂
