This dress is new to me - Ruth and I traded black dresses. I got this one and she got this one. I've worn mine at least 5 times for the blog (and a few times before then), and I needed a cute little t-shirty one like this one. Thanks, Ruth!I got a lot of "Wow, look at those boots!" comments today.
A close-up of the top half (since blacks photograph so poorly):
The top of the dress is a faux wrap - it had a sash that was stitched on, but that limited me from wearing a belt so I removed it! Ha! Take that!The stuff:

I love that jewelry set. Dress (BCBG Max Azria, swap with Ruth), cami (InWear), boots (Aldo, consignment), belt (Bianca Nygard), earrings/necklace (Lucky Brand, gift from L), ring (consignment).
Those boots are so amazing and bright! I've been considering removing the self-tie belt on my faux wrap dress for the same reason. I looove the turquoise belt and all the jewelry.
ReplyDeleteI like the flow in the black and yellow, gently *punctuated* by the turquoise belt. And YOU can really rock those boots!Indeed, they are like sunshine.
ReplyDelete:-)
Loooooove that necklace!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, that necklace is divine. I thought it was some Native American piece you got on some special trip. And you're looking SO slender these days -- what are you doing different? Absolutely beautiful.

**Yeah, I've never had good posture. All that ballet I took for nothing :)
Great fit to the dress. I love customising stuff by ripping out bits - veyr therapeutic.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is a great fit on you, and I love all the bits of color in this, especially that turquoise belt. Makes you look super-skinny. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd who doesn't love those boots? They are so great.
I'll say it again "wow. look at those boots!" Also really, really love the necklace.
ReplyDeleteI too love these boots as they remind me of my first ever "grown up" footwear. I had some bright yellow platform & high heel boots when I was about 12. I loved them to bits and wore them until they were too small, then I gave them to my younger cousin who had coveted them for ages. I have never had footwear since that I loved so much!
ReplyDeleteI COVET the yellow boots!
ReplyDeleteThere is great color here.... !!!! It's so much fun !
ReplyDeleteI like all your "stuff" !!
I love these boots too! The dress is perfect on you, and I love the color of the belt. You never run out of ideas!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Megan - I love them. Do it! Make your dress work for you.
ReplyDeleteJean, thanks!
Thanks, Jane!
Julia, isn't it cool? Aw, you're too kind - doing nothing new with my weight, just trying to maintain, as it's been creeping up the last few months. Heh, and with ballet training? You bad girl. :)
Jane, it is, isn't it? You have to get it right for yourself.
Kristen, thank you! Aw, so sweet.
Lesa, thanks!
Thanks for that great memory, Fay! That's awesome.
Sal, I got the "Big Bird" comment all day!
