Don't ask what I was thinking going out with bare legs in super snowy weather today. (Especially when sick!) What can I say... when I have something in mind, there is no undoing it. I was determined to wear this dress and this shirt together. The sweater was for added layers.
I've had this dress for so long, I don't even remember where or when I bought it. That's kind of a feat for me because I can normally pinpoint where and when I bought every single piece of clothing I own. Is that strange?
My favorite part of this dress? You're lookin' at it right here. It's miles and miles of pleats - so much so that it sways perfectly when you walk. I kind of have a thing for dresses that do that.
Those pleats are spectacular! I love how festive and 4th of July this look is! And, you're a better woman than I for the bare-legs-in-January!
ReplyDeleteFeel better, soon!
I LOVE pleats...and polkas and plaid....so this outfit is totally right up my alley...love all of your pieces:)

ReplyDeleteGet thee some navy tights, girl!
This is awesome! I love the pattern mixing - you're such a pro at that. And I know exactly where I acquired each piece in my wardrobe as well. And I remember events based on what I wore as well (and what hair style I was rocking). So funny how our brains work!
ReplyDeletewhatwhatwhat! i love the button down over the dress! and the SWAY FACTOR is very important in a girls life. almost as important as the twirl factor ;)
ReplyDeleteYou can't remember where you got the dress because it's actually mine and I accidentally left it in your closet!
ReplyDeleteDid that work? Probably not. But, I LOVE this outfit! The pleats especially :)
OH, PLEATS! I'm wide-eyed with envy about this skirt. I'm waiting on two pleated skirts that I ordered from ArchivesChicago to grace me with their presence on my doorstep. I love how many pleats your skirt has and IT'S DOTTED. It does NOT get better than that!

Your dress is gorgeous! What a great find! I love how you put together this outfit. You look great :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment! I was a bit nervous to wear those tights, but after putting them on with that outfit, it was love.

i love pleats because i feel youthful and sophiscated at the same time! looks really great.
ReplyDeleteand i love your list for the 30x30. i'm the same way. list and list some more.
I love this look and how you mixed prints!
ReplyDeleteI would find 30x30 not too bad because I only really wear dresses so it's easier for me to make outfits. Hope it goes well x
