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.

Isn’t this such a fun little number? I knew it would be perfect with my $10 platforms.

what I wore: dress – pinwheels via grey dog, earrings – cheap thrills, bracelet – mae’s, heels – forever21, lips – covergirl lip perfection in hot over covergirl outlast longwear in everreddy (I never have to reapply)

I have really positive feelings associated with this dress. I picked it out especially for our engagement pictures. Then wore it to a party and when we toured the Amalfi coast on our honeymoon. So, it always makes me happy to wear it. It doesn’t hurt that it’s super comfortable.

What I Wore: In Black & White

what I wore: dress – max & cleo (old), heels – report signature, bag – vieta, sunnies – asos, earrings – vintage via mae’s

I’ve had this dress for at least 5 years and I couldn’t believe it when I couldn’t find a previous instance where I posted about it. It’s a really versatile and fun dress that I’ve worn to weddings & work alike.

What I Wore: Blushing

what I wore: dress (seen here) – cacharel from grey dog, heels – kelsi dagger, earrings/bracelet – forever21, watch – asos

Yesterday, I wore a dress that I had worn in April. Then I paired it with a lot of accessories, a big bun and a bomber jacket. This time, I did rose gold accessories with hair down.

What I Wore: 50’s Magenta

what I wore: dress – vintage vicki vaughn juniors via cheap thrills, heels – jessica simpson

I love this little dress. Accessories optional.

What I Wore: Good Business

what I wore: blouse – vintage, dress/belt – forever21, heels – report signature, earrings – vintage via cheap thrills, sunnies – vintage rayban, tulle tutu – ebay

The purchase of a tulle tutu to wear under skirts/dresses has to be one of my best all-time purchases. It gives volume and also length when a hemline is a little high for the office.

What I Wore: Purple Please

Color always helps lift my mood and I love this dress for its loose butfeminine shape. Also, how fun are these target heels I got for $7?
