The Savvy Stylist: Leather and Lace Party

Doreen writes:

My sorority is having a "Leather and Lace" party where everyone attending has to wear - you guessed it - leather and lace. My tastes veer more towards the classic, Banana Republic/J. Crew styles, so I have no idea what to wear. I'd like to be funky enough for the party without looking skanky. I have a lace clutch from Macy's that I can carry, but beyond that, I'm stuck. Any ideas?

That sounds like a cool party idea! I think this look should work for you. It fits the theme but it's still relatively classic. The whole shebang, not including the clutch, costs only $94.59.
