Happy Friday! Plaid Casual

My new company does jeans day, so I wanted to ease them into Casual Friday, Sheila Style:
Plaid dress (first seen here), skinny jeans and my good ol' black boots.

The fabric on this dress is so thin it layers easily over my pants.
I did my rocker cuff and my crazy black chainlink necklace for some pizzazz.

Today, I also debuted my new messenger bag:
I had to wrap up the ends of the strap with some hockey tape so it didn't flap around, but isn't that front panel amazing? The design is called "tattoo" - the bag itself is by Licence 71195 and was on for half price at $29.50.

Gotta dash! Have a great weekend!

Dress (Kensie), jeans (Jackpot, swap from Caro), boots (Aldo, consignment), earrings (Aldo Accessories), necklace (Club Monaco), cuff (vintage).

    Cute casual look! Love the bag, it reminds me a bit of classic bxw "elegant gothic lolita" stuff.

    Yay! I really love your style! And since I'm working on my casual outfits, probably I'm gonna copy you big time!! (I bought my first pair of jeans 4 months ago and wore it once!! I know, pathetic...). You rock Sheila!

    I love the way you used the dress as a tunic! Very cute! I think you are starting off strong at the workplace!

    Thanks so much, Kari! It was totally comfy.

    Keely, thanks!

    Dimi, aw, thank you! Please go right ahead.

    Pam, thanks - the dress is really thin, so it's not bulky.

    Lorena, no, there are not, sadly.
