dress (J.Crew extra 40% off), tights (Target--only $5), shoes (Plenty by Tracy Reese), necklaces (old as dirt, no clue--2 layered acrylic necklaces), bracelets (J.Crew & Stella & Dot), ring (David Yurman), shades (Gucci), watch (Cartier)
For all of you 9 to 5 gals like myself, this is the Perfect Dress for your day gig! She also fits the bill for a ladies' lunch, meet the parents, church, or a daytime shower. Toss her on with some tights or sans such once the weather warms, and you have an easy, yet polished, rig (it's quite comfy, too). Make it a good one, gang!
PS: if the Dress is not avail in your size online, call your local store & they'll do a store search to find it for you. I do this all the time for items that aren't avail in my size online--works like a charm!
PPS: the necklaces I'm wearing are old as dirt...disliked individually, but once I doubled the acrylics, all old was new again and they're back in rotation! Lesson here, don't forget about your old pieces, just try to sport them in a new way!

Oh my word. I feel like I say this with every outfit you post, but this one really IS my favorite!! I need it for IFB conference next month!!
ReplyDeleteSnag it missy---it is such a comfy, yet chic dress!! Perf for IFB!
DeleteI love the layered necklace look! I'd have had no idea they were two separate necklaces. It adds just the right amount of edge to a ladylike dress!

Those necklaces are to do for! I love the texture and chunk. You hair cut is really great, I would love to do that, I think it might work for my hair type.

I am a die hard colored tight lover. Your bold red tights, set off that dress! To be honest, I don't know if I would enjoy the dress as much without the tights.
ReplyDeleteLove the entire thing, as usual. ;)
