10th Commandment: September 16

Sep 16, 2013

I’m searching for a pair of leather or faux-leather accented leggings to wear under sweater dresses and tunic sweaters.  I thought about going for the all-leather look, but that didn’t strike me as being as comfortable as ponte and leather accents.

    btw, do you have any suggestions on sweater dresses that aren’t wool (i’m allergic) on the affordable side? (like under $50)
