03 Feb Styling the LBD – With a Liquid Leather Blazer
Happy February my friends,
Back again with some more Clara Sunwoo. I posted this REEL on 3 different toppers to wear with this little black dress. I am sharing one of them on the blog today.

By now you are familiar with Clara Sunwoo. I love sharing their styles and how versatile and wonderful they are for day to day, and especially travel, since they don’t wrinkle! You can roll them in a packing cube and fit a capsule wardrobe for your next trip. I packed Clara Sunwoo for our Portugal/Spain trip, and fit quite a bit in there.
These pieces would have been great during my teaching days for sure. No ironing and plenty to mix and match!
The liquid leather blazer comes in other colors as well. I chose the taupe as a neutral that I can wear these soft neutrals, and it seems to go with the Color of the Year, Mocha Mousse. Here I have combined browns and black tones that are tied together by a snakeskin silk scarf and Louis Vuitton Speedy.
Other colors that the blazer comes in is black and hot pink. I also have the black one.
I’ve been helping my mom put together more of a capsule wardrobe, and you can certainly do that with these staple pieces from Clara Sunwoo.
The black side slit maxi dress is one of their signature pieces, and just that little black dress you could wear dressy or casual. A great staple piece for traveling.
I would wear this black dress different ways- Here are some suggestions:
- Fashion sneakers are “all the rage” right now, so get yourself a cute pair and wear it with a denim jacket into Spring.
- For the winter weather – Add a blazer, a tweed jacket and some boots and you have a put together look.
- The LBD with a liquid leather moto jacket will look modern and a bit edgy.
- Wanting to wear some flats or mary janes? Try a pair with the dress and add a cute silk scarf at the neck. A long cardigan can complete the look.
There are so many endless ways to style the dress!
If you are now looking more for Spring, the same dress is in a different print.
What’s Going on?
Every time I write that I think of the song by “Four Non- Blondes”. Do you know it?
Well, I had a little heath scare and it turned out with the ultrasound there was a “typo” in a measurement. I won’t go into the whole story but was worrying unnecessarily! Just finished a test having to do with my Gastroperesis, and it is not easy. It makes my head hurt sometimes to deal with these health issues, but I try and stay positive and push forward, be educated.
We don’t usually go out on Valentine’s Day, but one of our favorite places is having a Valentine’s Day wine dinner, complete with wine, apps, dinner and dessert for $55 a person. Very reasonable, and we love The Cottage, a warm and inviting wine bar.
My Mom is ore settled into her place and loves to keep busy. She joined the gym, ladies’ groups, the church and participates in activities at the community she is in. We have seen each other much more than we would in Pittsburgh! 🙂
Treat Yourself to CSW for Valentine’s Day!
Perhaps you have a trip in mind, or you just want to wear wrinkle-free clothes because you are tired of ironing, give CSW a try. There are plenty of basics if that is what you are missing in your wardrobe, or maybe a liquid leather jacket has been calling your name. h

Posted at 15:56h, 09 FebruaryBeautiful jacket. And what a color. Almost reads pink-ish. Could mocha mousse also be mauve? I have never be clear what color mauve is!!
So sorry for your health scare. Glad it was a fluke. And so happy to read that your mama is adjusting so well to her new home. My mom enjoyed the exercise and Bridge playing but also enjoyed not going when she didn’t want to!! Ha!!

Posted at 22:12h, 03 FebruaryMocha Mousse is such a good color for you, Jess! I love Clara Sunwoo’s Liquid Leather. It’s just the best along with everything else! I’m so glad to hear your mom is settling nicely into her new home. That’s got to be a load off your mind. We probably won’t do much of anything for Valentine’s Day, but I sure would love to! Your “date” sounds wonderful. I’m also glad your test results were a misreading rather than something serious. It kinda makes you wonder, though.
Have a wonderful week, and I invite you to link up with us on the Weekend Traffic Jam Reboot this week and every week!

Posted at 18:45h, 05 FebruaryYes, big fam of CSW and I liked this neutral color and will wear it with cream as well. Yes, my mom is enjoying living here. Finds the patrons interesting and keeps busy! We tyically don’t go out on Vday , but this was reasonable and sounded like fun. I was just a bit upset at the error, as I was so nervous about the biopsy! So glad that isn’t something else to thing about . I will have to pop on by Marsha!
