New Year’s Eve Outfit
I was recently re-energized by a few new accessories I added to my wardrobe. Insert hot new cropped Moto jacket and a high neck lace top from The Drop. The Moto jacket has the softest faux leather I have ever felt! The high neck lace top has the prettiest lace detail. My only gripe is that it isn’t a bodysuit. I think it’s safe to say The Drop is one of my new favorite, affordable fashion lines that I’ve discovered on Amazon. Their 7 day try out period is what sparked my purchase. I am super picky about my clothes and fabrics and how they feel on my skin. The off-white Moto jacket has excellent detailing as well. The zippers came lined with tissue paper to protect them from damage during shipping. That right there made me feel better about the brand and their clothing. They take great care to protect their items. The zippers look and feel amazing too!
As soon as I saw the jacket, I knew I had to buy it right then. It is on sale for 35% off right now too! I figured I would just send it back to Amazon, hassle free, if I didn’t like it in person. Online shopping for clothing is so hit or miss! I was pleasantly surprised at how much I love it! The lining on the inside of the jacket is super soft as well, so it feels great on your skin. I paired it with some ballet flats from Target and my favorite Spanx Moto pants and a bodysuit for New Years Eve. It looked hot! Especially with the pants! I always thought crop tops/jackets weren’t for me, but I have since been converted. They just look great and help break up the proportions of your body. Pairing the jacket with the high waisted Spanx Moto leggings was a win!
Theses high waisted Spanx Moto leggings are my favorite pair of leggings/pants that I have ever owned. As I mentioned earlier, I am picky about fabrics and prefer my clothes to look fitted. These Moto leggings do not disappoint! As an animal lover, I tend to go for options that are cruelty-free and vegan (I don’t care enough to give up bacon though). The material feels soft to the touch. The pipping detailing on the leggings gives them an edgy look and feel. I was a bit turned off by the price at first, (they were about $150 when I purchased them from Amazon), but they were worth every penny! They are now on sale for $110 and are available for Amazon Prime’s try before you buy program. So get yourself these pants asap! I could honestly wear them everyday and if they had them in other colors, I’d have to hair every pair! This was my first pair of Spanx ever, (and the most I had ever spent on a pair of pants), so I was super excited to give the brand a try. My only gripe is they tend to roll down, which may indicate a sizing issue. I still love, love, love these pants!
Moving on to the lace top, it’s just as awesome as the jacket. I love shirts with a high neckline, so this one is perfect. I needed something to wear to an interview in a pinch and my plan was to just send it back afterwards. This shirt will not be going back! The high neck looks amazing on me, (I’m not the biggest fan of my neck), so it covers it just enough. The sleeves have a slight puff to it as well, (maybe I just needed a smaller size?), but I think it adds to the styling of the shirt. The lace detailing is beautiful and it is not scratchy on my sensitive skin. I will say the smocked neckline was a little itchy at first, but I have since adjusted to it. So keep that in mind if you have sensitive skin. I didn’t want to show too much skin for my interview, (it was for a VP of HR position), so I opted to wear it underneath a LBD. It looked amazing! It gave me a the confidence boost I needed to rock the interview. I didn’t want to wear something that looked plain and boring, I wanted something a little more edgy. It totally changed the look of my dress and brought a little more edge to the look. Even though it was freezing, I didn’t want to take it off! Instead of wearing a blazer, I paired it with the Moto jacket.
The next time I wore it, I paired it with a camisole underneath and it looked amazing. I think it would look great with something a little more risqué like a crop top or triangle bathing suit top underneath as well. Or even just a cute bra. As I mentioned earlier, the only thing I would change about it is offering it in a bodysuit. The shirt kind of rides up a bit and I like my clothing to stay put and look tailored. Having it as a bodysuit would fix this minor issue. The plastic packaging on the shirt wasn’t my favorite. It was kind of hard to open and would easily tear the if something were to happen during shipping. Besides that minor packaging complaint, I would give this shirt a 11/10!
