The story of this outfit begins when I scored two Cache pieces, a skirt and a top, at Buffalo Exchange. With tags still on, each piece was about $145. But at Buffalo, I paid about $45 total.

Together, the top and skirt could make a stunning outfit. And in Las Vegas, this type of over-the-top look is totally acceptable. But I see more potential in breaking the pieces apart. I envision the skirt with a T-shirt and boyfriend jacket and the top going with anything from jeans to skirts.

So I wore the top with my new favorite pair of jeans, CJ by Cookie Johnson, and I wore this entire outfit to an art show presented by my friends at Up All Day, featuring the art of James Mulligan and taking place at Caramel. The event was awesome. And I love these jeans. Look for my review of them and interview with the designer in the following post.

My new CJ by Cookie Johnson jeans. They are so fab!

Not only are these shoes rock and roll chic, they’re also comfortable!

The whole thing put together. Don’t limit yourself to keeping matching pieces together. Break them apart for more potential.
