Fall Outfit with Clara SunWoo Liquid Leather Pants
A few weeks ago, I took about 20 minutes out of a busy day to drive down the street with my oldest to take some pictures in the cotton fields. The fields were ready to be picked so I wanted to take advantage before this pretty sight disappeared. Thankfully, I had the idea for this post planned out, so it was just a matter of throwing this outfit on for some pictures.
The idea started with wanting to style my liquid leather pants with neutrals. You can read more about them and see more styling inspiration in this post. I absolutely love how easy these pants are to pull on and how the sheen is there but not in your face.
The embroidered top was a clearance find at TJMaxx this summer. I love how detailed it is and how it has that boho feel that I love. The tan hues make it a versatile piece. The booties are my oldest pair that I never have replaced because I haven’t found a better pair. The low shaft is just perfect. The heel is worn and the inside is not the most comfortable anymore, but until I find a equivalent pair, I will reach for these.
I even wore a pair of neutral earrings: these were made from dominoes and I bought them on a trip to New Orleans. I have this oyster pair and a pair with butterflies on a blue background.
I haven’t used the snakeskin clutch in real life (I shared it 2 months ago, my mom got it in Africa 50+ years ago) but it really complements this outfit.
I’ve always enjoyed taking pictures here: it is literally about a 3 minute drive from the house. Here are some other outfits pictured in the cotton fields:
As I continue to prioritize shopping my closet, I am really getting a clearer idea of what my favorite style is. I do like to try different things and have a variety of pieces in my closet, some classic, some boho, some a little more edgy, but I am realizing how much the fit, fabric and details in a piece make a different on how much I wear and how I feel in it.

The shaft height on those boots really is perfect and hard to find – I can see why you’ve held on to them! I like the mix of boho with edge in your outfit.

I haven’t seen a similar pair since I bought these.

This looks so fabulous Mireille!
I think you’re right about the fit and fabric. Those are details that not everyone thinks about but can make such a difference!!

I always find it interesting how my outfit comes about. I originally thought of another tan top but the details on this one makes the outfit much more interesting. And the cotton fields are so cool!

The cotton fields provide an amazing background for your photoshoot. It is a pity that we don’t have anything like that in the UK.
I love those pants. I have been think of getting some leather pants for myself but have not yet taken the plunge. Now in my late 40s I am not sure how good I would look in tight trousers!

This is the first place where I have lived that had these fields so I do enjoy them a lot. As far as the “leather” pants, I have found that as long as I feel covered, I really like the feel/look of them (and I am 48).

What a cool place to take your pics! These pants are fabulous and I love the boho style blouse you paired with them.

I try to take blog pics there at least once every year. Sometimes, it is hard to plan it right.

This might be the most beautiful backdrop I’ve seen. And the sky! Everything worked perfectly for your shoot.
