I had pulled this little jersey number aside a few weeks ago, and haven't gotten around to playing with it until today.
Normally I wear it unbelted, as shown here in August, with a pair of platforms. Much more classic and girly. So I decided to take it in a completely different direction.
The boots (and the belt,) made it edgier, just what was needed. I would leave the look at this for the day, but for night...
I added red lipstick (huge step for me!) and the necklace. The necklace was a recent purchase that I could not resist...I even love it with a simple tee!
The lipstick is something that's a little bit harder for me, but it's growing on me. Red always works well with black and white, but I may try going with a berry or maybe something closer to an orange red...
Has anyone else experimented with a strong lip for spring? Any recommendations?

i like how you wore the dress both in your other outfit and this one. :) the necklace looks great and that dress is just pretty. :)

happy easter weekend!
erin :)
this is a great ensemble girl. I love how you matched everything and I especially adore the shoes :)
It looks very Balenciaga with the heels, perfect! I've gone the opposite for summer as I always wear dark lips Ive gone for tangerine x
the dress is great1 I love black and white! :) and shoes.. oh my.. how I adore them! :).
Try Mac's Pink Poodle Lipglass -- it looks terrifyingly hot pink in the tube, goes on much more sheer but still bright.
Ohmigosh you look gorgeous with that dress styled in either way - but I have to say that the boots and belt really made it so perfect for an evening out with the girls. I am so obsessed with those shoes!!
As for strong lips...I haven't tried it myself; though I'd love to attempt an orange shade for Spring!! :)
