The sweater over a dress thing

Speaking of repeats!~ I JUST wore this dress last week. But I styled it differently today. I had an entire outfit planned around a cold front that doesn’t come in today. Whoops. So I had to improvise.

Oct 21

Every time I see someone do the sweater over the dress thing, I think “SO CUTE” and then when I try it myself I’m never sure. This is the first time I’ve been happy enough with the results to actually make it out of the house in the combo.

I’m giving myself a dirty look because I forgot to put on my slip. And while this dress is not see through in the least, it does mean my tights will be sticking to my dress all day. I am not pleased with myself!

These shoes are super cute, and I have more than got my moneys’ worth since I got them last year.

The locket has a picture of Nathan on one side and me on the other. XOXO

I called these “jellyfish” earrings when Erin first made them, because, well…they look like jellyfish!~

Those shoes are from Target? I LOVE them. So cute I could die. I love your totally different look for the same dress!

I think we're getting that cold front tomorrow--it's supposed to be 40 here!

I'm still waiting for that cold front. I bought a new sweater over the weekend at Target and I want to wear it!

I've been too chicken to try this look myself, but I think you totally nailed it.

This bracelet is craving material! It reminds me of a gorgeous necklace I saw on a 2005 Vogue issue
