Love this Look - "Understated Cool"

Sarah

I saw this outfit on Fabsugar and I just love it. It's just so cool and easy. I need to figure out my version of this look.

Totally love it and if my brain were somehow transplanted into a body with less bum and more leg, I'd be in this outfit in a second. I can't wait to see a real-life adaptation.

Wow! I do like it although I would pair that fabulous skirt with a teal or plum jacket and a tad lower heel.

That outfit provides me with an incentive to work out on my elliptical every day!

Give me that skirt and I'll wear the look! lol
Very cool vibe while still looking reasonably comfortable (well, except for the heels maybe).

The heels are the first to go! Way too high for me!

Cute look! I'm not sure about the tee paired with the drapey skirt, but at least the denim jacket will give some structure. Guess I'm the only one who loves the heels :}

I love the whole outfit! Thanks for pointing it out Sarah. I can't wait to see what you come up with. Since I don't own a black skirt or black heeled booties, my version would have black harem pants and black gladiator sandals.

Love this, including the footwear! Immediately made me think about this Karen Kane skirt:

That would be a sweet outfit, and you could do a lot with a skirt like that. It's unexpected, but not too crazy. Thanks for sharing the link, Sarah.

That is VERY understated cool! I love it. For me I'd wear a slightly more modest skirt, and a less blingy necklace. But I wouldn't criticize anyone who wanted to rock it as is!

I found a skirt today on sale at Banana that I thought might work for this look. Here's their link: http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=850703022
I agree with you @Nadya. The one I originally posted is too revealing for me as well.

I think I need to play around some more to make this work. Maybe my cropped tuxedo jacket would be better than the denim jacket. I only added the belt to give me some more shape.

Anyone have any other suggestions?
