Closet Confection: Yo, Taxi!

Miss Sixty Jacket, Sculptz Leggings, Laila Rowe Rhinestone Brooch, Forever 21 Scarf, and Thrift Store Boots by ClosetConfection--A Fashion Blog

When: Sunday, December 26th, 2010

Where: Dinner in the city

What: Coat (Miss Sixty via Burlington Coat Factory), black tunic tee (H&M… it’s under the coat, trust me), knit hat (JC Penney), ruffle wrap scarf (Forever 21), tie-dye leggings (c/o Silkies), leg warmers (Uniqlo), boots (thrifted via Beacon’s Closet)

It seems like all I wanna do is be lazy comfortable this holiday season.  My usual uniform is a dress and heels, but with the temperatures dropping (not to mention the recent snowstorm NYC was slammed with), I find myself reaching more and more for leggings and stretchy jeans to layer on top of one another.*

As you may have noticed, I am a big fan of kooky legwear.  I had been wanting to add a tie-dye pair to my collection for a while, so I was pretty excited when Silkies sent me a pair of their new Sculptz Tie-Dye Opaque Leggings with Control Top to review.  And boy- ‘o-boy, when they say control top, they really mean it.  For those who care about such things, these baby’s will definitely hold it all in.  I loved the fact that they’re opaque and not at all thin and see-through. They also come in solid colors, and I have my eye on the Copper and Purple versions.

Stay tuned tomorrow for my winter snow bunny outfit and tales of how I survived the Great Blizzard of 2010!

*Just to clarify, I mean leggings on top of leggings and jeans on top of leggings.  Leggings on top of  jeans would probably be pretty weird.

      Thanks. We happened to stumble across this little alcove by accident on our way to dinner.

    You look sweet from head to toe. Now you’re making me want a super nifty pair of tie-dyed leggings. SIGH.

    Ok, so this is just stinkin’ fun. Stinkin’ as in awesome, not smelly. In case you would have confused those. You totally pulled this off. And I like it. I like it a lot. Rock on with your city chic tie-dye self!

    okay, so I read this post from my phone and I couldn’t comment before, but I LOVE it! I am always so jealous of people who can pull off “kooky leg wear” because in my mind, I can’t do it. You really know how to work it, though. I also love your coat and scarf. Just all around fabulous!
