A Trendy Classic








dress (Zara), jacket (HM, see Similar), shoes (Belle by Sigerson Morrison), bag (Michael Kors), watch (Cartier), ring (Kendra Scott), bracelets (J.Crew), shades (Ray Ban)
Part trendy for the black & white and yet all the way classic with the black & white, the stripes and khaki anorak.  That's basically what had me sold with this dress is its ability to be current and yet still be classic all at the same time.  Quite important when choosing your frocks if you ask me!  You all make it a good one--I am actually MOVING this weekend (still in Lexington) and therefore my list of TO DOs today is quite insane...Can't wait to get all settled in the new nest!

  6. Fabulous dress! Often ZARA dresses are a bit short but this is perfect and I also love the length of the sleeves.
    It suits you so well!

  10. Love this dress and toying with getting for myself. Would you say it's true to size? Does it stretch a lot, since it's cotton? Good quality? Sorry for the questions. I've never bought anything at Zara, so am not familiar with their products. Thanks in advance for any tips!

  16. Yes, Pam==it fits pretty true to size. It has a bit of stretch and is a thicker cotton--flattering over the curves. Good Luck!
