Creating A Theme With Details
As an analytical person, I like details. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that I’d have a fondness for details in my clothing.
When I got the workout capris I’m wearing in the photos I envisioned wearing them with sneakers, casual, and dressy shoes. The determining factor in the look I want to create relies heavily on the shoes. So when I found these fabulous strappy criss-cross strappy heeled pumps I knew they’d work with the capris.
The lattice hem feature on my capris gives them that little extra oomph while adding a long-sleeved light knit sweater with the heels takes them up an added notch. Did I mention the sweater also has lattice detailing on the shoulders?
The combined pieces, capris, sweater, and pumps all share strappy features that work well together. Adding a silver-toned medallion on a faux leather necklace was the perfect accent.
What I wore:
- Heather gray, long-sleeved, ribbed lattice detail sweater | Macy’s
- Black lattice hem capris | Kohl’s
- Black faux suede black pointed toe pumps with crisscross straps | DSW (link is to a comparable pair)
- Silver-toned medallion on a faux leather necklace | ancient
- Silver-toned cuff bracelet | ancient
- Small embellished hoop earrings | Vera Wang Kohl’s
- White cane
Have a nice weekend!
The Capris and pumps look great together. You rock as always Steph 😊
Thank you Brigid.😊
Those heels though!
😁 It may be a little premature, nah, who am I kidding? I love these heels😍
Beautiful, as always. Wish I had your style. I’ve gotten better, but sometimes I’ll catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror and think, “What was she thinking?” and then realize it’s me. LOL
I do the same thing. I’m sure we all have those days. I’m going to try to throw together a post that will include a sneaky photo my brother took while I was in the ER having a breathing treatment for an asthma attack. I thought the picture was funny especially because I didn’t know until today that he took it.
I hear you. But I like what you said about asking yourself if you’re hungry for something and if not you drink a glass of water. I’m going to try to remember this tip. I gave up candy last year and while for the most part the cravings are gone out of the clear blue sky I get a yen for some sweets.
Steph, I think you may have posted this comment under the wrong person. Either that, or I’m having a brain fart.
Hahaha, I’m so sorry. I’m the one having a brain fart. I don’t know how in the world I did this.
No problems. It’s like sending a text to the wrong person, which I have done.
Wish I looked as good as you!
Hahaha, no you don’t D. I look like something out of Nightmare on Elm Street until I put on my face and duds.
I like the look!
Thank you Robyn😘
Love those shoes!! Great look!!
Thank you Paula! As soon as I saw them I was crushing on them. And they are unbelievably comfortable. I’ll be wearing them many, many times.
You make me want to change out of my sweatpants every once in a while. 😀 Fabulous as always, Steph.
Thanks Diana.😘 I should probably share some of my “comfortable” looks or shall I say “nonlooks” which I wear around the home front all the time. If my dog didn’t recognize my voice she’d probably run terrified in the opposite direction. 🤣 I still getting dressed to go out but in this season of my life I feel so darn good in my tee or sweatshirt, sweatpants, slippers, and headwrap. 😍
I love your look, Steph. I’m going out with my daughter today and I’ll dress up a bit 🙂 (I won’t wear my pajamas!) Ha ha.
Hahaha. Do you remember when wearing pjs as an outfit was a thing? Have fun with your daughter.
Va va va voom! I LOVE those shoes and you look amazing.
If you like these ones Kerry you should have seen them in red. It’s not often I feel like I have to “have” something but I “needed” those red shoes in my life. ☹Sadly they were sold out on DSW and I couldn’t find them anywhere else.
I LOVE red shoes – it makes me feel like clicking my heels!
I know right??? Maybe that’s why I was so enthralled with the ruby slippers in the Wizard of Oz. Not to mention, red shoes are just plain sexy.
I have some red pleather boots for a Wonder Woman costume…😈
