Today I felt like running around in my fancy OTK boots and pleated, leather skirt! Pleated skirts truly are my favorite: They can be worn for every occasion, and are just so fun! To complete the look I added some pop of color to this black ensemble by wearing a neon knit sweater (it’s still not warm enough to ditch sweaters for shirts) and I must say: I’m really loving this look for spring!

PS: We have chosen a winner for the brunch contest, and the winner is…drum roll…KELLYLETTO_! Congratulations, Kelly!

Below is our final #BloggersWhoBrunch video also! Enjoy!

As always, thanks much for reading & have a great day!

    Hola Vanessa!!!! First, I want to thank you for the wonderful message you left on my blog. You are such a wonderful human being and I feel so honored and blessed to have met you:-) I can’t wait to see the new designs you make and I will definitively buy more. I really like them very much. I wore the bracelets to go to dinner with friends on Sunday evening and I received lots of compliments. I wish I had your business card with me:-( If you can send me a couple next time I buy that will be great! Regarding today’s post I have to say that I love everything about it. I have a soft spot for skirts and the pleated one you are wearing is absolutely beautiful. Love the pop of color you added with the sweater. The entire outfit is amazing and those boots are TDF! I enjoyed watching the video you shared. I can tell you had a wonderful time surrounded by amazing people. Have a blessed week my sweet friend. And keep dreaming and thinking big because if you can dream it, you can have it! XOXO, Jeannette

    Love a good pleated skirt too! Agree that it isn’t warm enough to bust out the tees, but this yellow sweater gives your look a Spring feel.
