Staycation - OOTD: Sheer Cream Blouse



I picked this up recently in Neiman Marcus's cusp department (thanks Holly!)  I'm so in love with it because it's SOOOO sparkly and I love that it also combines the great turquoise colored trend that's going around.


I decided to keep the outfit simple because I really wanted my statement necklace to shine (literally!)  I'd been wanting to try the sheer white blouse w/ black bra trend for awhile but always felt a bit self conscious like I'm channeling Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct. LOL! Anybody? Just me? tehehe.

               



Top: Asos Sheer Cream Blouse
Bottom: Forever 21 Jeggings
Jewelry: Neiman Marcus Statement Necklace
Shoes: Christian Louboutin Black Patent New Simples 120
Handbag: Chanel m/l Lace Flap

    Those shoes are hot hot hot! Are Louboutins comfortable to walk in even though they're super high? I love your blouse. So feminine and pretty :D

    Super cute outfit! I love the black bra trend too, but i dont know if i can pull it off:( Looks great on you though!

    You always look polished even when you keep it simple. The necklace is so pretty. You totally pull off the black bra trend by keeping your hair down and covering up what's neeeded to be covered up. I saw some people who attempt this look but look rather trashy. You rock this look, I love it.

    Looove this outfit! Especially the sheer blouse and obviously the loubs ;)
    I get what you mean about the black bra. I like to wear a black bra under a white lacey top sometimes, but other times I'm like ehhh... maybe not.

    There is just something So Amazing about a pair of Louboutins! I am experiencing a dilemma. I don't know whether to buy a pair of Miu Mius or a another pair of Loubous. Do Miu Mius fit true to size?

    I love the outfit. I don't see any hints of Sharon Stone anywhere. The sheer top with black bra trend is hot right now for good reason -- It looks awesome!

    That necklace is actually amazing. I am having such lust for it. (I am beyond jealous) I love how the turquoise offsets the blingyness.

    Ps. I came across your blog yesterday and I love it and have been reading posts all day! You have such great taste and write in a really witty way. Consider me an avid follower from now on!!

    You look great! I have a blouse that looks really similar to yours that I got from ASOS too! I thought it looked eerily familiar haha :D I'd have to agree with you that I am way too self conscious to be wearing just a bra under a sheer shirt ><
