Swing Dress

TGIF!
I don’t know about y’all but it has been a long week back after the Thanksgiving holiday.
Today, as promised, I’m showing you another way to wear the dress from Wednesday’s post.
Who doesn’t love a good blanket scarf? I can promise you this gal does. I immediately thought a big blanket scarf would add some much needed print to this dress, so I kept it simple, and just wrapped it around. However, it would also look cute draped over your shoulders and belted. The belt would be another great accessory to add interest to the dress. Now, let’s talk about what might be my favorite part of this outfit…the shoes. The hemline is pretty short so, it pairs perfectly with OTK boots. I have been dying to wear these, since they arrived on my doorstep. However, with the heat here in Florida, they required the perfect outfit; aka a dress.
Since this outfit is pretty neutral, it allows the color of the dress to stand out. Add a dark lip and you’re ready for a day full of festivities.

In-Vested

Happy hump day!
Today I am showing y’all my favorite outfit as of late.
 I am obsessed with both of these pieces, and would wear some variation of this every day, if that were socially acceptable.
 If I had to pick a favorite of the two items, I would have to say the vest. First, it is completely on trend with the longer midi length. I also LOVE that it has pockets. Seriously, if something has pockets I will buy it on that fact alone. Lastly, it has an almost quilted detail that really gives it a lux look.
I must admit I was a little intimidated by the vest when I first saw it, which is why I immediately thought to pair it with this dress.
I love simple dresses that are easy to throw on and dress up with shoes, accessories, or other clothing pieces. This dress is perfect for this time of year with long sleeves and a mock neck. In addition, the fabric is really light, so it’s perfect for layering.  Throw on a pair of tights and OTK boots and boom you’re ready for cold weather.
Oh and did I mention the price point on both of these is extremely wallet friendly?

P.S. Since I love both these pieces, so much I’ll be showing you another way I wear each piece.
