sexy-back

A woman's back can definitely be a great area to accentuate. Many of these styles work especially well for those who can go bra-less. For those who prefer not to, try a sheer bra, stick-ons (like Barelifts, which I can't say I've ever tried) or a bra with an extra low back. I've posted some other options at the bottom.

1-skirt

... 11 ways. This "collage" is kind of hilarious, but hopefully serves it's purpose. I wanted to show how a simple, black leather skirt can be mixed into so many looks. This particular skirt is on sale right now at Zara for just $49.99. Yes folks, for real leather!

I must say, I did even better than that. Years ago I bought a leather mini and a leather pencil skirt, both at thrift stores for around $12 each. You might want to check a thrift store first, since I see so many there when I go.

They have remained useful in my wardrobe for the past 5 years and I will continue pulling them out. I haven't decided for sure, but it might even be my NYE look???

nye x f21

Did all that Christmas shopping tap your bank account, but you still need to look great for New Years Eve? Forever 21 to the rescue with tons of party looks, most in the $20-35 range!

Another reason I love F21 is for all of their amazingly affordable accesories. Take a basic little black dress you already own to the next level by adding trendy statement jewelry, a hair piece, or unique tights.

NYE is a great time to get a little more daring with your look, so go for it! I'll be back with more looks that are currently on-sale or are, as always, under $100 :).
