When I originally put this outfit together I topped the sheer tunic with my cropped Asos top with the sheer back. It almost worked, too, and I did like the sheer-over-sheer effect. However, the way the wide neckline of the cropped top revealed the straps of the tank top just wasn't quite right; too many Flashdance memories, I suppose. Incidentally, click on over to Wendy Brandes' latest installment for the Huffington Post, featuring me and a bunch of fellow bloggers sporting sheer garments.
This outfit was inspired by this one from Sea of Ghosts, but for my version I covered up a bit more and opted for the demure pumps to make it more age and work appropriate. I love how the leather detail on the tunic pairs mirrors the leather panels on the pants.

I like the ought and really enjoyed seeing the "inspiration" and how you changed it to be age/work appropriate.
I love the shape and texture to this outfit. I love the heels! Fluevog even does "basic" interestingly and perfectly. Those have the best shape.
Wow. A complete knockout. I loved being there for the purchase and seeing what you do with them is a learning experience all around.
The look is amazingly similar to your inspiration. Had not realized there was leather on the britches until you pointed it out.
yes! Like Megan said, Fluevogs are always interesting and these are rather fabulous. Love your trousers too, with the subtle leather.
This is a beautifully stylish outfit, love it!
Leather on the pants? Love!
And even plain Fluevogs are amazing.
(Eeek, I am so far behind on your blog! Sorry, Audi!)
