Monday mornings are a means for a fresh start. The kick-off to what could will be a pretty amazing week! Don't you just love new beginnings? Without getting all junior-high-inspirational-guidance-counselor on you, we love the idea of a new week, new goals, a chance to kickstart those state-of-the-art ideas you've been working on! After a weekend of traveling to the country, doing some intense yoga, morning meditation, and basically just vegging out, I am so ready to get back into the swing of things and.. well, Sean Paul said it best.
Anywho, what better way to start a new week than to rock a power look, you know the kind. You put it on an instantly feel ready grab your latte, run out with the times, hop in a cab, and take on your morning meetings with vengeance!
For instance, a rocked out take on some of the classics - oxford shirt, midi skirt..sweater. All of these items are not my ordinary cup of tea, I always felt a little too.. 'prepster' when looking at them individually in my closet. Stemming from my catholic school days, a traditional oxford or a midi skirt, was just too conservative for me. But that's old news! You need to train your stylists eye to see everything with a twist. Add some edge to otherwise middle-of-the-road pieces. A classic silhouette, like a midi skirt, can be transformed when you play around with texture - a little leather, does the trick! - and add some other unexpected edgy elements, like buckles, black nail polish, or oxblood lipstick. What? Too Adams Family of us?
