I couldn't wait to wear these trousers that hubby/DS got me - cobalt AND black in ONE pair of trousers? Perfect!

I paired the trousers with a simple black knit tank and topped that with my Spiegel leather jacket. We are back into the -30 Celcius temperatures so dressing warm is once again key. I think the length of this tank is a little too short and I'll be looking for a black longer, drapey tank or tee, but this will have to do for now. Proportions are a bit off a result.

I finished off the outfit with my black patent booties and black with gold hardware handbag. Red specs and lipstick are the finishing the touches.

What do you think? Does it all work together? Need a longer simple black top? As always, all comment/suggestions welcome.

Jacket: Spiegel
Tank: Sears
Trousers: Lord & Taylor
Booties: Ara
Handbag: Danier Leather

P.S. Hubby and I went to Danier Leather on Saturday with my gift card to look around and I fell in love with a blue leather jacket - sort of a cross between denim and navy blue. It's a very simple style. Slightly slouchy but not overly so, front zip, two breast pockets with zippers, tab collar, hits at my hip. It's off getting the sleeves shortened and I should have it back in 2-3 weeks.

I also fell for a black lamb leather asymmetrical moto style with subtle gold hardware. As much as I like the Spiegel jacket, I wouldn't mind something along the same lines that is a little bit longer and has a smaller collar. The Danier one had a real "urban" feel to it with a bit more attitude and slouch. Will have to think about that one...
