For some reason it’s hard for me to wear this sweater
without pairing it with another printed piece.
Sometimes it’s more polka dots, sometimes it’s giraffes. Today it’s more polka dots. Again:
But, really folks, besides giraffes, what goes better with
giant polka dots than smaller polka dots?
That’s right, nothing. So smaller
polka dots it is. This time I paired my
large dot sweater (Old Navy) with a
small dot dress (Coldwater Creek, thrifted) the collar of which isn’t crooked, it’s delightfully
askew (I love that word). And, because it
rained off and on today but still wasn’t too cold, I wore bare legs (Two days
in a row! It’s practically summer up in
this piece!) and nude Mary Jane wedges (Corso Como via Piperlime). Oh, and hot pink earrings (Last Thursday
vendor) because it’s also hard for me to wear navy blue without adding hot
pink.
The skirt on this dress is a bit long but I haven’t decided
if I’ll shorten it or not. Instead, I
just wore the last two buttons undone which is a trick I learned from Alexa
Chung, of all people. The the nude shoes and undone buttons help lengthen the legs which may have been shortened by the
length of the skirt (the buttons make more sense in motion).
That’s right, I just advised you to wear your skirts
unbuttoned.
Happy Wednesday, All!
Gracey
