The beautiful spring weather and the lace skirt/dress trend out now makes me want to reach for one of the few lacy pieces in my closet - this sheath dress - and who cares if "fashion rules dictate" I'm not supposed to wear white just yet? As long as I can keep this dress stain and tear-free (fingers continuously crossed) whenever I wear it, I consider myself pretty in-style.
Jacket: J.Crew (worn before - sim under $25, sim)
Dress: F21 eyelet shift (worn before - sim under $50, sim, sim)
Belt: Asos (worn before - sim luxe, wider, velvet)
Necklace: c/o Manic Trout heart and soul (worn before)
Bracelets: J.Crew factory chain-link on sale & Yunikelley (sim)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff isobel hobo (worn before - same in patchwork leather, sim under $60, sim under $37)
Shoes: Soludos platform leather (sim, sim under $40, sim ankle-strapped, pricey)
Totally agree with you on wearing white! Silly rules that were just made long ago to help separate and define what social class you belong to really have no roots in truth or in longevity! Now, would I wear your outfit in the middle of winter in the freezing cold...no...but I think it would incredibly fresh and appropriate with right pieces!
ReplyDeletePlus, if we followed ALL these rules from over a century, we couldn't do fun things like mix patterns or pair bold colors together! I say if you like it and you feel comfortable in it, then that's good enough!

You've said it so well, Julia! I totally agree!
DeleteThis dress is so pretty, I love the white lace!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteLoving the necklace - and are the Soludos comfortable?
ReplyDeleteThank you - and yes, I think the Soludos are pretty comfy. The leather is a bit tight at first but will stretch a bit with wear. I haven't had any problems with rubbing or tightness with these flats - plus I feel like a ninja since they're silent, hehe!
Deletesuch a awesome collection...i like it so much
