White Dresses x2

Fashion Fundamental:  A classic sheath dress - Sheath dresses are appropriate for just about any occasion where you want to look smart and polished.  These versatile dresses can take you from desk to dinner -- and even date night.

From time to time, Banana Republic releases a dress in this ultra-flattering silhouette, and I always like seeing the iterations of this dress.

My adorable niece also chose to rock a white dress on her big day. :D

DVFxGapKids Take 2

Guess who cut their hair? 2013 - new year and a new do!  :)

I repurposed this cotton DVF dress to work for the cooler months. Ailyn does an awesome job remixing, and I need to take some more tips from her. This dress is a lot of fun, and I am excited to figure out some other winter combinations.

Check out the summer version here!

Ann Taylor Cheetah Print Cardi

I'm working on upping my animal print game after being inspired by the BDIB animal print challenge. Ann Taylor offer some beautifully made animal prints. I'm a big fan, and highly recommend checking out their prints. 

Additionally, these booties are the best! They are perfect for fall and I just keep wanting to wear them. Check out how I styled them with another dress.

Happy Tuesday and thank you for reading!
