All-black outfit with a little cream satin to soften it up.
I love tough looks, so give me a leather jacket with serious shoulders and a pair of moto leggings any day of the week. But adding in a little femme for balance isn’t a bad idea, so this was the perfect outfit to layer in this cream satin and black lace camisole (an H&M find). The satin and lace provide a break from the edginess, but the overall look stays street.
I have these leggings in three different colors because wow, they’re comfy. They don’t present like normal leggings; they give off enough of a trouser vibe that you can rock ’em even if you’re not on team Leggings as Pants. I happily skirt the antiquated office dress code and wear them all the time M-F with heels and tall boots. No one’s the wiser.
If you don’t have a pair of mules yet, allow me to introduce you to the shoe of 2016. It’s very 90’s, yes, but I practically live in these leather ASOS mules because they go to so many different venues: the office, weekend errands, date night, etc. My versions are sold out (for now), but shop just-as-badass mules here, here, and here. Wear them with everything from jeans to dresses, leggings to trousers.
Shop the look:
Of course, this cream satin camisole can be dressed up, too. I’m thinking of pairing it with cigarette trousers and a blazer for work, or over shredded boyfriend jeans for another tough-and-pretty combo.
Look how gorgeous you are! That blouse and jacket are amazing and the mules just tie it all together with fun edginess and yet the feminine softness that is so beautiful on you!
Thanks so much, Eilse! Love the tough + girly together here, too. 🙂
Loving those leggings! I love that they LOOK nice, but are actually super comfortable. MY favorite kind of pieces! And that jacket is fab. The mix of leather and lace is perfection!
I had to buy ’em up once I realized I could wear them to work, too- SCORE. 🙂
Tough meets pretty, once again! I love day wear that somewhat resembles lingerie. There’s something so delicate and feminine about the pieces and if they work for day, it feels very vintage to me. I love that you toughened this up a bit and stuck true to your leather jackets and edgy style! (:
I can’t believe those are leggings! They definitely look more like pants so I can see how you get away with them at work! Love the edgy and feminine combo you have going here in this outfit!
Your lace cami is the perfect piece to soften up this look! Those mules are fabulous!

Those mules are kind of the perfect combination of cute and tough – those star studs!

That cami is really pretty, nice with the tougher leather jacket 🙂 The quilting of your jacket and on your pants works great together too.
Hope you’re having a good week 🙂
