Code Red: Peekaboo Red

Muaaah! 20 YORK STREET at Wednesday, March 16, 2011

Outfit details

Moto jacket - Aeropostal, Generous gift from JoAnn

Striped asymmetrical tank - Bluenotes

Animal print belt - Nine West, Thrifted

Skinny jeans - Guess, Gift from Pearl

Leather tote bag - Roots Canada

Laced brassiere - La Vie En Rose, Gift from E

Black booties - Browns, Gift from Maria

What and Where

As much as I'd like to make you think that the thing peaking under my asymmetrical tank is a well-paired camisole, sadly, I can fool no one, can I? In that case, pardon me for flashing you today!

This is not my normal weekend casual outfit, let alone my Friday office attire but I was feeling tough and cool that I thought, why not leave the blazer at home and rock this fantastic leather jacket from my dear friend, JoAnn. Thank you my darling!

I have to say, I am loving it! Do you?

Do you wear normally relegated to the weekend type of outfits to work? Tell me more!

My work is really casual so I essentially wear weekend wear to work all the time. But I just dress it up a bit with a blazer and nicer shoes ;); March 16, 2011 at 2:52 p.m.

My Heart Blogged said...: I like the leather jacket on you a lot. I can't wear what I want to work so I wear what I want at home. I have a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

Emma at Daily Clothes Fix said...: You do rock chick so well. I love this look on you. The dress code at work means that any rock looks I do have to exclude denim (unless it's Friday).; March 16, 2011 at 7:45 p.m.
loveandpeaceF said...: I love this outfit! And the lace peeking through is so cute, intentional or not :P

Melissa said...: Oh good heavens. My blog is heavy-laden with the tales of what I can and can't wear to work, so let's not bog down yours with those stories.

Let's just say that Joann has fabulous taste and knows what looks great on you! You are gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous as always!

Hope you're having a good week! I haven't heard from you. REALLY want an update about that meeting!; March 16, 2011 at 9:53 p.m.
Rebecca Maureen said...: Hottie McTottie. I don't think I wear weekend outfits but I definitely don't wear what everyone else does...they think I'm overdressed. But whatevs. You are rocking it :); March 16, 2011 at 10:52 p.m.

GIVEAWAY IS ON!!!!!

Laura said...: This outfit is so Urban Sexy. Especially with the Black lace peek-abo. You definitely have the legs and tush for those awesome Guess jeans. Adorable belt! And most certainly the Jacket is a far better choice than a Blazer. I can see what you mean about your great attitude from your photos. Your outfit lights a fire under you.

Since I dress conservatively most of the time, my office and weekend wear are interchangeable. The biggest difference would be the choice of accessories and shoes.; March 17, 2011 at 9:16 a.m.
Farm Girl Fashionista said...: Love this casual-rocker chic look on you!! Also, love your hair pulled up...really adds to the overall look! (Get those pics to you today...haven't made it to the office yet!?) xoxo; March 17, 2011 at 9:40 a.m.
Jodi said...: RAWR... hot tamale!! xoxo; March 17, 2011 at 9:42 a.m.
Mae Lu said...: Dude, far out! I love the flashing of the lace bra> HOLY MOLE SEXINESS, BATMAN~! I love that. I think you should do it more often.

And I don't have a leather jacket, so I think you threw that linkback as such generosity.

Tara said...: Love the look! That jacket is fantastic, and you look gorgeous, as always.

I spent all day Thursday flashing people accidentally, until I just got tired of hiking up my tank top and decided to button my cardigan. I think it probably happens more than I'd like to admit, unfortunately :)

This Life, Redefined…stop by and say hi!; March 18, 2011 at 5:18 p.m.
The Style Rawr said...: We love the stripey tank!! Such a great look.
