Little Black Dress Remix

By
Happy Friday!


dress: poof apparel; ross dress for less
blouse: thrifted
shoes: croft & barrow
socks: very very old from ireland
hair flower: forever 21
ring: vintage from great grandma collection



I really like how I can wear this dress during all seasons depending on how I layer it. More recently, I've enjoyed layering blouses underneath it. One of my favorites under it is my ruffled leopard print blouse. I went for a monochromatic look for this outfit though. The socks make everything a lot cuter, I think. Although some people were staring at me whilst walking around campus. For real.

Here's a few ways I've worn this dress in the past:


I can't wait until it's cool enough for tights here! The tightless picture was taken in late September last year. So I guess I have a while to go.

This looks like the perfect little black dress! It's such a great shape, and I love that you've styled it so many ways. I think my favorite is with the red tights & sunglasses :)

What a great versatile dress!! I love all the ways you've styled it. Especially with the white top underneath, really great. Tight weather is so exciting, but it was 31 Celsius today so no tights

Lovely LBD! I need one terribly bad. Also love how you remixed it, really like the one with the cheetah blouse underneath, so cute girly! I can't wait for tights either, even though I have started to pull some out, it's been way too hot! hehe

i love little jumper dresses like this--they're so versatile! and i hear you about getting funny looks while wearing bobby socks. some people don't understand fashion :) maybe they're just staring because it's so awesome and they wish they had thought of it...

Botanical Fun

These pictures are from my outing to The State Botanical Garden of Georgia, which just so happens to be conveniently located about 8 minutes from my apartment. There were still a nice amount of flowers blooming so it was really pretty. I decided I needed to get more wears out of my pretty Steal the Game Show dress from Modcloth so I took some inspiration from other bloggers and wore it as a skirt! I actually really liked how this outfit turned out. Plus it was easy to walk around in all day because I wore nice, comfy Keds. dress (worn as a skirt): Modcloth.com blouse, belt, bag: thrifted cardigan: ann taylor loft; thrifted shoes: keds sunglasses: kohls earrings: forever 21 I quite enjoyed my brightly colored nails. They're China Glaze Papaya Punch with an accent nail of Electrify from the Capitol Colours collection. I've been loving having the whole Capitol Colours collection. Especially since it's Hunger Games themed. If there...

Work Outfit: Light Blue Jersey Knit Dress and White Block Heels

By

I'm a big fan of what I call "pajama dresses," which are really just jersey knit skater dresses . They're comfortable enough to sleep in, yet can look 100% put-together if styled nicely. That's exactly what I did with this light blue dress California-based shop Tobi sent me to style. (Someone even asked me why I was dressed so nice at the dog park! I told them I just came from work, of course.) For the debut of my newest pajama dress, I added my silvery beaded Stella and Dot necklace and a pair of white block heel sandals from Forever 21. I actually bought the shoes back in December on sale and had to wait for it to warm up to finally wear them. Happily, they're comfortable enough to walk back and forth to work, which is really all I can ask in a pair of cheap shoes.  daydreaming skater dress : c/o tobi | shoes : forever 21 | necklace: stella & dot | sunglasses: forever 21 Check out more from Tobi:  shorts  |  jewelry  |  casual dresses ...

Outfit: Concert Tee, Black Denim Mini Skirt, Pink Tights, and White Converse

Here I am wearing a concert t-shirt again. At this point I'm not sure I'll ever stop wearing them. Maybe when I'm 70 I won't wear them with bright pink tights and white wedge Converse, but really, who knows? Maybe we'll all be dressing like Zenon : Girl of the 21st Century by then. (I can only hope.) And if I really take a look at this outfit, all I need is a colorful vest and I may as well have come off the space station. They really liked vests in that movie. I guess they don't need sleeves when everything's climate controlled? It is, however, not climate controlled outside in Atlanta. These pictures are from a couple months ago but it still hasn't reliably warmed up here yet. Also, my hair is now completely different since I had it chopped off again into an asymmetrical pixie a couple weeks ago.
