Black on Black

January 14th, 2013

Club Monaco Jacket (similar here), Illesteva Sunglasses, T by Alexander Wang Shirt, Rag & Bone Jeans, Madewell Belt, Coach Bag, Matisse Boots

I’m about as far from being a punk/rock-inspired dresser as you can get. I’m usually in dresses, I avoided Dr. Martens all through high school, and I’ve never dyed my hair some sort of neon color. But when it comes to an outfit with a slight biker vibe, with ripped skinny jeans (that are absurdly comfortable), flat boots, and a silk version of a moto jacket, count me in.

    From the knees up(above the rip), I think
    You are soooo Adorable and Cute and Sweet
    . Just toooo Cool! But the rip just doesn’t seem
    Like you,kinda messy and that’s not you! You
    Are classy and elegant and at least in the photo the boots look like a different shade black from you pants and jacket…another to go could have been everything the same except no rip in jeans and some of those wonderful black REALLY strappy

    Sandals I see ppl wearing….. If I were with Joan and the fashion police I’d give you a thumbs up! Great as usual!

    Emily, I love the outfit! I have a question: what necklace is that? I have a thing for very simple, understated jewelry and your necklace caught my eye!

    That biker jacket looks luscious… I bet you could wear it in more situations than a typical leather biker jacket too. Major plus.

  • Patti

    Do not like the ripped jeans!

    I am the same when it comes to the ‘punk’ style and I’m mainly seen in dresses / skirts however I am loving this look.
    Its so simple and chic. Gonna have to come up with my own version.
    Thanks for the inspiration!

    Gorgeous flowers, and I love that jacket. I’ve been trying to find the *perfect* faux leather jacket for some time now but it’s tough. Real leather just isn’t an option for me. This freezing weather sure is making me wish I had one though!

    Strive to Thrive,

    I love that you wore a brown belt and sunglasses with the black outfit! So many people are scared to wear black and brown together, but everything goes with black!

    What a coincidence!! Today I’ve also published a post holding some flowers (red roses) ;-) … I’ve called it “Viennese Romance” :-) … Best wishes from Vienna/Austria, Katja

    I have to disagree with Tiger. The rip is perfect. In my opinion, and you know what they say about opinions, never trust anything that’s too pristine besides kitchens and bathrooms.
    Something should always be left a litte undone or it’s just not got character. You’ve got character. Great outfit and the fact that you are carrying flowers is such a nice balance to the “cool” look.

    Perfekt, would wear it on the same way
