Sticking to my blog resolution of restyling old pieces into new outfits, here is a rework of the leather skirt previously seen in this post. A more downtown alternative. Which look do you prefer?

eggtartbox wrote:: I actually like both ways that you've styled this look; each is lovely in their simplicity and minimalistic feel, although this one definitely is a more downtown alternative. Something I like that's different in this outfit is that while the previous one had a lot of focus on structure, this one has more of a focus on the mixture of textures. Heh, I'm quite looking forward to seeing what other pieces you end up restyling! Have a great rest of the week!; 1/12/2012 6:39 PM

Alexandra wrote:: I honestly don't think I could choose between the two, they're both such amazing looks in different ways. This one is way edgier, a style that I tend to immediately associate with you. Good for you for restyling, it shouldn't be that hard anyway with all the amazing pieces you own! I seriously always have such wardrobe envy.
