This, Not This: Vol. 13

This, Not This: MAXI SEQUIN SKIRT, not MINI

These are a holiday season go-to — for an update try a larger sequin like a pailette and a longer length for maximum style.

This, Not This: SHEER BLACK TIGHTS not OPAQUE

I’m so picky when it comes to sheer tights. I personally own this Wolford pair - they’re pricey but worth it and they last even after many washes.

This, Not This: BIG BOWS, not DAINTY

Go big or go home with this trend. The runway did it jumbo sized so skip the small, dainty bows of the past.

This, Not This: PATENT FLATS, not SATIN FLATS

I love a patent flat - they’re easy to take care of and with more square toe and a single strap they feel effortlessly cool.

This, Not This: MICRO SHORTS, not BLOOMERS

This one is near impossible to pull off but if you dare to try, please follow these rules:

No novelty fabrications - FULL STOP.

Cover it ALL! We don’t want to see an inch of skin. Minus your neck, hands and head and maybe the neck is even too much

Do a micro-short not a bloomer!

And as always, do you. Wear what makes YOU happy — this is just what’s bringing me joy when it comes to fashion.
