Headband: Claire'sSequined scarf: Old Navy
White tank: RW & Co
Boyfriend cardigan, liquid leggings: Urban Outfitters
Boots: Aldo
One of my coworkers thought I was wearing hooker boots today because he could not tell where my leather boots ended, and my liquid leggings began - I'm not sure what I think about that remark! I felt rather bad-ass and comfy in this outfit, which could be somewhat of a surprise to some, but attitude doesn't have to equate to discomfort! I love the endless line of my legs paired with the boho-rock feel of the long cardigan and sequined scarf. You could say that this outfit was even inspired by Serena of Gossip Girl, who is my favourite style star of the show. Everything Serena wears is carefully constructed and yet looks utterly effortless, modern, and sexy. The layers, rocker sequins, headband, and casual-chic feel are all Serena staples. If I wore this outfit out at night, I would further add some chunky layered statement necklaces in alternating gold and silver for a special touch of glam. How do the other Serena lovers out there think of this outfit? Any tips are appreciated too!

You look way too badass to be working in software, babe. ;-)
love the boots
and the headband :)
xo!!
Is it wrong that I totally love them as hooker boots? Lol, it just reminds me of when Victoria B stepped out in those thigh (crotch?) high latex numbers with the no heel :)
OH - doing a dress giveaway on my blog - new with tags, forever 21 and all that mumbo jumbo :)
And I ship anywhere (almost) worldwide, just for your dear readers to know (I know where you live lol).
No, they are awesome boots!. To me, it doesn't makes sense when people associate a particular style of item to a group, like say hookers". It's more about the whole outfit than any specific item. Sure, hookers have done a good job of making certain outfits look pretty trashy. But that doesn't mean that the individual items they are wearing are trashy, they've just put together an outfit to make them look trashy. (And probably intentionally so)
Even with things like thigh-high boots, there's been the occasional girl I've seen pulling them off with a clubbing type outfit, and it looks good, not trashy or "hooker-esque" at all.
my two cents anyways.
love your outfit. :]
You look hot and fabulous! Totally Serena-esque:) You just reminded me to bust out my Serena boots before it is too hot!
I LOVE this look on you! You look amazing :)
Trisch xo
it's a fine line when wearing either liquid leggings or high boots so you are a brave woman to put those two together! I love the look but have yet to try it.
Thanks guys!
I love them and the entire outfit you put together. I like the pose in the pic too!
lol this friend is wrong. NOT hooker boots at all but I can understand his thought process! hehe you look like a little darling in that grey headband. You have the total rocker and sweet vibe going on here!
Hows the weather like in Canada (boring topic I know) but I am freeeeeeeezing my tootsies off here and am just imagining the amazing sunshine you are receiving :(
Have a fab week! :D
i love the leggings and boots!
you look great
that guy just doesnt know fashion
serena does always look great
love it!
I'd wear it to a rock concert with a metallic silver scarf and a sequined head piece to bring out the glam! ^__^
I'm loving the black on grey and those ALDO boots! Super rock-chic!

Def. a kick ass outfit. Love it.
LOVE the outfit! My first impression when I read this was, "He called them hooker boots?!! What?" lol! You really do look badass in that outfit and I love it.
Well where we work the guys don't know much about fashion :p I think those are nice!
Thanks for the comments, love :)
the title of your blog is so great!! Makes me smile every time I read it.
xo!!
Gorgeous outfit doll. As someone who studies Gossip Girl fashion I can appreciate what you've noticed about Serena's personal style.
I love the chic fashion punk style but if you're aiming for a Serena look my personal recommendation:
Ditch the headband and let your hair be free. Try putting one bright piece (accessory or changing the color of your shirt) on.
Your boots are fabulous, excellent job layering.
Serena has suchhhh fabulous clothes! Your outfit is cute =) But yea, everytime I see those photos of people with leather boots and liquid leggings I get soooo confused. hahaha. I don't mind the look though =)
Very cute outfit! Love your leggings and boots!
WOW, I absolutely love the boots with those liquid leggings, it looks so amazing!!
Sexy can I...
That song just popped into my head upon seeing this outfit.
Hooker? Nope. Classy sexy!! Love it!
Bisous,
La C.
this looks is too cool, the leggings & boots together is absolutely amazing!
i don't think those look like hooker boots at all! you look fab!
@DSF: thanks, it took a few shots to put together!
@Deka: surprisingly I actually like his style, he's got this whole colorful street style thang going on, but I think maybe he was just trying to bug me :p
@TigerLily: ooh that's a good idea!
@FashionChalet: aww, I'm glad you like it :)
@Wicked: Thanks! Those are some good tips
Love the Aldo boots? What style are they? They have the best boots!!!!!!
"he couldn't tell where the boots ended and my liquid leggings began" ahahahhahaha! i think the outfit looks wonderful :) you make a lovely serena van der woodsen hehehehe

Very cool outfit. I've always loved the combo of a long cardigan with leggings and boots. Serena would probably show a little more cleavage ;-) But I really don't think that's necessary. And you're right about the chunky necklaces or perhaps a chunky hair accessory?
Very sweet. Does not look "hooker"-esque at all!
Super hot!. You look great.
