What I Wore: Tropicana

what I wore: dress – grey dog, arm party – mae’s/vintage/dannijo/express, lips – covergirl outlast in everreddy & covergirl lip perfection in hot (seriously this requires no reapplication), belt/shoes – forever21

I first tried on this beauty at grey dog a few weeks ago, I tried to resist but soon $ was burning a hole in my pocket and forced me back in the shop. Now, I’m so glad I went. What would my wardrobe have been without this adorable tropicana confection? It’s a vacation in dress form.

What I Wore: Paisley

what I wore: dress – willie’s influence thrifted from potter’s house, heels – jessica simpson, necklace – kate spade, watch – bcbg, bracelets – vintage, gifted & house of harlow, rings – forever21 & mae’s
This shoulder-padded, floral, paisley, draped, harem concoction was around $3. So, you know, I was all over that.

What I Wore: Florals

what I wore: dress – tracy feith for target, necklace – forever21, heels – kelsi dagger, pashmina – italy
This dress can be worn like so with a low back or turned around an worn low cut in the front with an exposed zipper. It’s multifunctional!

The Best Skirt/Dress

what I wore (previously): skirt – esque, belt/blouse – vintage via cheap thrills, earrings – charm & chain, ring/bangle – mom’s, bangle – house of harlow, sandals – lovely people, necklaces – vintage via mae’s
There is a lovely local designer in NWA called Leslie Pennel, her line is esque. I was lucky enough to pick up the above (what I thought was a) skirt from her line at Cheap Thrills.

I loved it as a skirt and while I am typically good at seeing the many ways one item can be worn, it was lost on me. The designer was nice enough to enlighten me to it’s many uses, which I utilized at the beach. If nothing else, it’s a reminder that we can wear the things in our closets in so many different ways.
