Mixed Media

The mixed media trend has been popular for a while and one that I have found quite appealing.  Because my colour palette is very neutral, I do enjoy adding and ,playing with texture for interest, so the mixed media concept seemed a natural inclusion to my wardrobe.

I set out initially to find a ponte/leather legging which resulted in my bringing home a pair of ponte/faux leather/suede Zara leggings.  It's only just cooling down here and I have worn them twice this week, and I am loving them.    They are comfortable.  I had to size up to a 
Large for two reasons.  I didn't want them skin tight and I generally find Zara sizing to be 
smaller than true Australian sizing.


I require my clothes to go almost everywhere and these, with the right styling, will work for casual, work and "dressed up" occasions.  

Anyone else embracing mixed media?

    The leather pants are beautiful, and I love the asymmetrical sweater. Wonderful look with few complications.

    Gorgeous minimalist look! I do like to mix my fabrics when I wear 1 tone and especially when it's all black, otherwise I feel like it's very flat. This is a gorgeous look and those pants are fabulous!

    I love mixed media and get very excited by seeing variations of it. I love your outfit, it's just the kind of outfit I would wear but I live in Qld - too hot for gorgeous winter clothes! I also look for clothes that take me "everywhere" rather than special outfits for special occasions. Love your style.

    Love this, I been missing your posts! I've been trying on legging just like these and wondering what kind of top to wear with them. This is a great solution, to add drape on the top. So good with the simple hoop earrings and red lip color. Your hair looks great too.

    There's nothing better than leather leggings (well almost, I do love a leather jacket!). The ponte nicely breaks up the leather, which as you've said really helps make them work in a variety of situations. And as always, you look lovely!

    The mixed media look really is fabulous for your style and the added ruffle with the topper adds another great visual element! I have coated black jeans I need to get out and style for a date night!!!

    Really sleek. Given your love of neutrals, you have an astonishing amount of variation in the vibe and flavor of your looks. That's real Style. Yes, the capital "S" kind.
    And you are my red-lip role model. You look so good in red lippy. I just can't make it work like you do! I know it's all in what the eye is used to, but all my eyes can say is "YIKES!" and poor things crease and snap shut in fear and repulsion

    You look absolutely gorgeous in that get-up! Leather pants are indeed very versatile, and matches really well with other clothes, especially with prints. This is the perfect minimalist look everyone can wear almost anywhere. Thanks for this suggestion!
