Hot, Cool and Vicious

There's 3 things in fashion I'll always love.

Outfit:
Snakeskin Print Dress - H&M
Black Studded Tights  - Tarte
Platform Wedge Shoes - Lulus.com

1. A good pair of wedges. The higher and more Frankenstein-ish, the better.
2. Animal prints - always an option.
3. Black tights. Tights are a wardrobe staple, but the one cardinal rule I like to follow, which was reiterated by Clinton Kelly during his Macy's presentation back in October is: 
If you're gunna wear em, cover your arse.
I follow this rule strictly as I'm not a fan of wearing anything that blatantly attracts attention to my ass. You can't help it in jeans, but when you're wearing buck-ass tights, it's literally an invitation for others to look at your toosh.

But I digress...

This outfit fits all three of my fashion criteria... and it's actually what I wore on Valentine's Day. I was a little worried the shoes looked a tad glam rock, but once I threw on my studded tights, I loved how it looked. A little rock n'roll meets dolled up for dinner. And yes, I was wearing something red for some V-Day obligatory-ness. Not sure if that's actually a word... but you get the idea.

Jewelry:
Floral Cluster Statement Necklace - Forever 21
Black Leather Bow Bracelet - Henri Bendel
Red Brass Bangle - J. Crew
Vintage 1950 Red Rhinestone Cocktail Ring - my grandmother's
