Hello! These photos were taken this past Monday when a couple of my friends and I went into the city. I posed for a photo with one of my best friends, Bri. Like myself, Bri studies fashion merchandising at PhilaU. She and I met last year and have been great friends ever since we quickly bonded over our love of fashion. Bri is also one of my best dressed friends; her put-together style incorporates a variety of structured and classic pieces. In the photo above, her winter coat and trendy pants perfectly illustrate her style. You can check out more of her style out on her Instagram @the_blonde_0ne.

For my look, I pulled my blue-gray faux fur jacket out of my wardrobe for a bold, luxe statement. I juxtaposed the rich, glam jacket with a casual, vintage, hippie printed tank top. The contrast between the two pieces creates a unique appeal. I also layered a black fringe kimono with the look against a black circle skirt and pair of black tights to create length and movement in the look. Additionally, the fringe further enhances the quirky, free-spirited feeling of the outfit.

To emphasize the burgundy in the print of the tank top, I styled a vintage burgundy bag with the look. I added the final touch to the look with a silver statement necklace. ShopLately recently sent me this necklace to showcase on my blog. In my last blog post, I elaborated upon ShopLately but for those of you who didn't read the post or don't know about ShopLately, ShopLately is an online marketplace where countless shops and designers sell their jewelry, clothing, accessories, beauty products and shoes. Besides the necklace that I'm wearing in this look, the kimono I'm wearing is also from ShopLately.

This necklace is the "Holly Multi Strand Coin Necklace in Vintage Silver" necklace sold by Lily Wang. The shorter length and bohemian charm instantly drew me to this necklace and make it the perfect statement piece. I'm very pleased with this necklace- the quality is good and the necklace is very lightweight. Right now, you can snatch up this necklace for a mere $6 + free shipping! And who could say no to that?

I would definitely recommend checking this piece out as well as checking out ShopLately in general. If you sign up HERE on ShopLately using your facebook account, you will automatically receive a $10 credit to use on your first purchase of $15 or more. Additionally, if you sign up with ShopLately, I would recommend joining their Insider Program. With their Insider Program, you receive free shipping on all products for just $9/year.
