I’m Wearing: White House Black Market Silk Blouse – (Similar), Caché Animal Print Skirt – (Similar), Michael Kors Black Pumps, White House Black Market Silk Clutch – (Similar), Michael Kors Gold Bracelet Watch.

Saturday night we met a few other couples at a local country club for dinner. We had never been there and most country clubs around here don’t allow denim on Saturday nights, so I figured why not dress up a little bit? I was trying to keep it on the conservative side, but with a little edge. I think this did the trick!

I’ve said it before, but I have to say it again – I’m a huge Caché fan. They’re clothes are sophisticated and sexy and great quality for the price. I purchased this animal print pencil skirt a while back, but the styling and the print make it a classic. I paired it with my favorite black silk blouse and pumps, threw on some jewelry and I was ready to roll.

Before I go, I have to share a little beauty secret with you. I’m not a fan of nylons, but I have ugly veins on the fronts of my calves which don’t look very attractive when wearing a skirt or shorts. To even out the skin tone on my legs and to hide the veins, I use Sally Hansen Airbursh Legs.

I LOVE this stuff. It’s so easy to apply. You just spray it on (I always cover surrounding areas with a towel) and then blend carefully and lightly with your hand. It covers imperfections and gives the appearance of a nylon without the fuss and uncomfortableness. Plus, it doesn’t rub off on your clothes. It comes in four different shades. I’m wearing medium glow.

    Love the look (as always!). Great idea about the “Airbrush Legs”. Many of us look better in short skirts (I’m not talking micro-minis!) but hesitate wearing them because of the little imperfections on our legs. I also HATE pantyhose and run them no matter how much I spend to get a “non-run” pair.

      I didn’t even know they make “non-run” pantyhose. Doesn’t matter though, they can’t be as comfy as no pantyhose!

    I think you might need to write your next blog about how you keep your legs looking so terrific. Your calf muscles are to die for!

      Lol, Kirsten! I got lucky in the leg department. It’s the rest of my body that needs some works!:)
