Cave Woman Couture

Dress and shoes, DVF.  Necklace, Kenneth Jay Lane.

Today I was feeling a little bit feisty and followed my animalistic urges while getting dressed.  This DVF dress is wild and sophisticated at the same time; it's my go-to outfit when I want to feel powerful, independent, and womanly.

As you can probably tell by my photo captions, Diane von Furstenberg is my all-time favorite designer.   Her clothes are all about girl-power- but not in a 'women are equal to men'-feminist way.  These garments encourage women to act and look feminine, and to kick ass while doing so.   And what girl doesn't want that??  This dress was the first DVF item I ever owned; since then, I've been hooked.

To compliment my first Diane piece, I paired it with my latest Diane purchase: black suede strappy heels.  Talk about kicking ass!  The sandals boast 4 inch heels, yet are incredibly soft and comfortable.

I turned to my favorite Kenneth Jay Lane necklace to finish off the cavewoman feel.  Pearls and a panther head; classy yet quirky!  

While I love fashion creativity and strive to create a new look everyday, I think it's smart to have at least one "go-to" look in your closet-- a look that makes you feel good, look good, and gives you confidence.    Some days I would rather stay home in my PJs than face the world, but instead I just put on my "power" outfit and show everyone how fabulous I am!
