Dress? Vintage, Revolving Closet Belt? Vintage Shoes? Coach  (similar hereClutch? Vintage Anklet? Vintage

This dress is pretty unusual. It's cotton and made in India but the shape is slightly kimono-esque and the pattern is like a mix of a Hawaiian and a south western print. And then, on top of all of that, the top has beads and crystals sewn unto it too. A bit of an identity crisis happening on this here dress and I can relate to that on many days... Such is life*.
I started out the day wearing the dress with bare legs and sandals but as the temperatures fell and then the rain fell too, I added black pants and switched to my beloved pumps. And you now what? I actually liked how it looked with the pants way more. I felt more pulled together? One of the few times that a drop in temperatures worked in my favour... Actually, it also worked in my favour because the house was so crisp that both cats slept snuggled close to me when I had a nap. If you have read my blog for any length of time you will know that I constantly lose the fight for the cats'affection to Matt, so the cat  nap and the outfit change both made my day a little brighter... despite the chill.

  2. That's a great look, and you are right, the pants complete it.

  3. Both ways look awesome...I Wasn't sure if it would be possible for the dress to look better style differently, but I'm even more in love with the second look!
