This ensemble was made with peeling in mind as if to moult while one transgresses from working day to the social hour. A stylized leather jacket can be donned to offer shelter on the way to work or later to the corner hotspot as well as encase the delicate underlayers. A chunky, graphic knit in a refined yarn shrouding an equally graphic halter top provides visual dynamic tension as we see the bottom polka-dotted end of the top peek below the striped sweater. Taking a backseat are some flowing menswear inspired pant and a discreetly textured heel. The hip work tote can hold your patent leather Louboutin skimmers, which you can opt to change into when the clock strikes 5 (6, 7 or 8?), and the sweater to reveal the sunshine veiled underneath. For those too modest to even bare shoulders, a shirred layer acts as a second skin under the filmy halter top.
