What I Wore: Polka Dots & Python

what I wore: dress – vintage via grey dog, platforms – bamboo via tj maxx, also here, belt – forever21

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

What I Wore: Beat the Heat

what I wore: pants – old navy, heels – FRH via tj maxx (see here), blouse & necklace- vintage, bracelet – a gift

When the temperature is over 100 there’s really not much I want to wear. I want to be a cool as possible. The best way I’ve found to do that is a) not get dressed or b) wear white. Since not getting dressed for work is typically frowned upon, white was the answer.

What I Wore: Muted Flowers

what I wore: dress – laura ashley via grey dog, heels – kelsi dagger, earrings – forever21
One of my favorite, most versatile dresses ever. It did get a little warm in the 100 degree + Arkansas heat, though.

What I Wore: White Heat

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: Blue Jean Baby

what I wore: jeans – levi via grey dog, blouse – vintage, heels – bcbg, bracelet – mae’s, earrings – mom’s

I found these amazing vintage levi’s last week at Grey Dog. I’m so excited about them because they’re the perfect length and rise. Also picked up the gorgeous silver bracelet at Mae’s – a local favorite.

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: Blue Bells

what I wore: top – vintage from cheap thrills, bells – asos, wedges – banana republic (old)

These are some of my favorite jeans and I recently found this perfect white white top, complete with shoulder pads.

What I Wore: Black Separates

what I wore: top – lna via shop lola, trousers – the limited, belt/watch – forever 21, cuff – express, ring – hemline, necklace – urban outfitters, heels – miss me

Whenever I wear separates (which is not often) they have to be good. I don’t think I’ve ever thrown on chinos and a top. Since I’m honed in on dresses most of the time, it takes a lot for a pant to speak to me. Last night I dug deep in to the recesses of my closet, where I keep the pants that don’t fit and found these gems. I don’t remember buying them but they’re a great length and I love the belt loops that are large enough for a giant belt. Paired with a tank I bought on sale at Shop Lola and a few accessories – it’s one of my favorite ‘separates’ look.

What I Wore: Among Hydrangeas

what I wore: vintage dianne ricco for nieman marcus (also seen here), cream blazer – unnamed vintage, heels – bcbg, lips – covergirl lip perfection in siren

I love this dress. It’s flattering, it can be casual or dressy and it’s work appropriate, but still a little sexy. It’s also happy – there are literally giant hydrangeas on the fabric. Don’t you love it when you find a dress that is versatile, fun and also you?
