I'm finally back with an outfit post! With the weather starting to turn into full blown winter I haven't been feeling very motivated to get out of jeans and sweaters, but I got this dress in the mail a few days ago and I knew I needed to put this outfit together. If I look composed in these pictures, I wasn't, haha. I ripped both armpits of the dress when I put on my cardigan, and I put in a run in my tights when I pulled them on. Oh well, that's just how things go sometimes :)
Dress: Vintage, from eBay
Cardigan: Thrifted
Tights: Target
Brooch: Vintage
I wore one of my favorite vintage brooches but I didn't get a very good picture of it! It's a cute little bunny with a jade belly and a ruby eye. So so adorable.
I got my Heda wedges from Blowfish earlier this week, and I could not be happier with them! They're super classic, and I can wear them just as easily with jeans and a t-shirt as I can with a fancy vintage dress. They have this pin-up look that isn't cheesy, but goes so so well with my style! They're totally comfortable too, and I don't have the easiest time in heels :)Chris and I both work late today, so we're enjoying a little quality time before we head off. I cleaned up our house yesterday, and it's always so nice to just hang out in a tidy and organized place (which is an embarrassingly rare thing in these parts!). We're going to make a conscious effort to keep it up, I think my problem is that I just get so wrapped up in my routine of work-work, come home, etsy-work, sleep, that I just skip by all the responsible stuff. We're ready to make some changes to our way(s) of life though, and I'm really excited about it! Kind of a pre-New Year's resolution :)
I hope you're having a wonderful (and warm!) day!!
Wow! That's really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteyou look so good in blue! so pretty
ReplyDeleteYou have the cutest legs!
ReplyDelete...is that creepy?
I've heard so many great reviews about those shoes to the point that I may even get a pair....and I'm not even a heel girl!
ReplyDeleteAlso, you look stunning.
What an amazing outfit! And love the shoes, too! :P
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend!
Miki.
I love the outfit! Great colors
ReplyDeleteI have been eyeing those shoes for so long! They look versatile and easy to walk in. I love your ripped armpit dress :)

I have to agree with the above leg comment, hope I'm not being creepy but I'm envious of the stems.
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous in blue/aqua and I love this dress, it is very flattering on you. I've ripped the arm pit out of many a dress, cardigan, sweater, and everytime I stare at the hole and admit defeat. Oh, how could I forget, these wedges are to die for.
I agree with you about a clean and organized house/room/what have you. I always feel so much better when my place is clean.

Amazing outfit, the aqua is such a gorgeous colour on you. Shoes look fab too and also look like they could be verrryy comfy :) I love a clean house, but with a 1 yr old it very rarely is !

Pretty outfit! I love the aqua blue colors!
ReplyDeleteUnrelated, but do you have any plans on making a pattern available for your Big Bow Scarf on Etsy? this one http://www.etsy.com/listing/84450380/big-bow-scarf-cream it's so pretty and I would love to be able to knit my own!

i want those shoes!! yours looks black, but the website only has brown??
ReplyDelete@Eva: mine are black, but you're right, the website only shows brown! Weird! Maybe you can get in touch with them, Elise on twitter (@blowfishshoes) is really helpful, or email customer service!
ReplyDelete@Eva: Just checked on my laptop instead of my phone and they have the black ones in 7.5, 8.5, 10, and 11 :)
ReplyDeleteThose colors are amazing! I love that dress.
