Doesn’t this outfit remind you of Cruella de Vil from 101 Dalmations? The hubs thought so. I used to love that movie when I was a kid and watched it over and over. I think that’s the movie that made me love dogs. I grew up having 10+ dogs (not at one time) over the span of my life. Now I have two cats.
Since the temps have been dropping, I found myself wanting to wear cozy sweaters, long winter coats and fur jackets. I still wanted to be chic so I paired this striped faux fur jacket with a different kind of LBD. You don’t need to have an occasion to “dress up”. Own what you wear. Have confidence that you meant to dress the way you did whether you’re going to a formal event or not. I often find that people here in LA are too lax. I really love the west coast, laid back, beach-bum mentality, but dressing well never hurt anyone. As fashion mogul Tom Ford once said, “Dressing well is a form of good manners”.
