PRADA RE-EDITION 2005 BAG & BLAK FAUX-LEATHER PANTS OOTD
Black Pants OOTD
There is nothing quite so versatile in the wardrobe as black pants. Here, I chose black pants in faux leather, but plain black pants would work just as well. I also am wearing a silk crewneck tee, but for a more casual look you could wear a cotton-crewneck tee, black jeans, a burgundy cardigan, and black loafers or ballet flats. Or, for more warmth, wear boots instead of pumps–and a winter-white or black turtleneck instead of my silk tee.
For a dressier feeling, choose a ruffle-neck silk blouse, black silk trousers, and pumps. There is so much you can do with black pants!
The Prada Re-Edition 2005 Bag
What I like most about the Prada Re-Edition 2005 Bag is the size. It looks beautiful as a dressy bag when carried with the gold chain. However, when worn with the accompanying web strap it looks like a cute, more casual bag. If you are interested in knowing more, including what it can hold inside, my next blog post features a video in which I offer a full review of this bag.

My Shoes
(ABOVE) I purchased these Ferragamo Quilted Leather Vara Pumps at our local Ferragamo Boutique in the fall of 2022, so they are not available any longer. However, below are two similar pairs of pumps from Ferragamo, as well as two pairs of more affordable pumps. All have kitten heels, so they provide the height wanted without sacrificing comfort. I wear these pumps with both trousers and skirts and dresses.

Bracelet & Handbag
(ABOVE) My paternal Grandmother gave me this 14k/18k bracelet in 1996. It consists of charms that my father collected for my grandmother during the 1960s and 1970s during his business trips abroad. I cherish it. Charm bracelets are a fun, whimsical statement on the wrist, whether made of gold, sterling silver, or faux gold.
