Originally I tried this outfit on with my white blazer but it just wasn’t working for me. Then I saw an outfit on the Banana Republic website where they paired purple with this oatmeal color and I thought “Ah ha!”
See, you don’t have to purchase every item on the store model to recreate a look.
Also, this dress comes with a same-colored skinny fabric belt that I might use if I was just wearing this dress to the beach or around the small Michigan town we’ll be in this summer for vacation. But to work? Put on the fancy belt!



Pairing the fancy sequined skirt with a neutral colored cardigan and nude heels helps keep it from being too bling-y or overwhelming.
The fact that I paired two pieces that could be considered slightly casual but added heels and a blazer makes my outfit work appropriate without being traditional.
Ever since I bought this tie-neck top I have been wanting to pair it with these pants.
Today I’m going to share with you one of my favorite ways to this lace dress that I’ve come up with yet.




I love love love this look! Very feminine and romantic. I was going to ask if the dress and belt were from Dots! (I mean, I was thinking that… I knew I didn’t need to ask since you always post where it is from).
I was going to ask if you had plans for a vacation this summer! I was thinking about that the other day for some reason.
