So remember when I restyled and refashioned my sheer 80's shirt into a new look with my Old Navy boyfriend jeans and the JLO tank top?
Little did I know that I was unto something old, being new again! Yes curvy divas, the really sheer look is here to stay with a totally new vision of sheer inspiration. I'm on Issuu are you? I was doing what I love to do, peruse what I affectionately call Magrags and came across BlkonBlk a really awesome magazine published by Black Magazine with some really great images of which I was impressed and loving their style.
So now I have two style looks I can use when the mood strikes! Did I do a good job with what I have? As usual in two words, Be. You! As I always am. These looks definitely fit into the category of #FFF, Fierce Fashion Friday style!!!!

Then I saw this look:
I could visualize myself in this style and wondered if I could recreate it. I had a high neck cowl sweater that was similar and I could wear my bondage shoes. Unfortunately, I didn't have any sheer skirts or dress. Well, there goes that idea. But perhaps I could still see what I could create using the shirts I have!
I grabbed two of the three sheer black shirts I have and decided to see what I could come up with. I tried on several looks that just didn't work. Tank or tee shirt or dresses over the sheer shirts....nope! The sheer shirts by themselves with a nice bra...yep, If I was going clubbing and I was...20 years younger! Then I came up with two style looks that I loved. Here are some photographs of my recreations.
The first look is a buttoned down shirt over a striped Maxi-Ombre dress with a slit on the side. I believe it may be an Apt 9 or a Nicole Miller dress. I accessorized with a pair of chandelier earrings and the bondage heels.
The second look was a sheer charcoal grey shirt with denim styling on the cuffs and collar, and two pockets on the front of the shirt. There were also silver buttons down the front. Guess what I did? I wore a striped maxi skirt over the ombre dress!!! Now that's being creative. While the shoes remained the same, I chose a long dangling triangle shaped glittered earrings for this look.
