The deets: J.Crew Factory blazer; J.Crew dress (old); Kelsi Dagger pumps; Piperlime necklace (old); Fornash & South Moon Under bracelets.
I'm always looking for ways to stretch my closet. It is especially hard when sometimes I feel like I live in two very distinct and separate worlds that are either strictly work or play and don't meet in the middle. One great way to get some of these pieces to co-mingle is to throw a blazer on. This dress which was last seen here goes from a weekend only item to work appropriate with the slide of my arms into this linen blazer. Magic!
I love this dress (outfit) and could totally picture it sans blazer with flips flops at a vineyard. You clever thing, you look great!

I do the same thing with "weekend" dresses. I throw a blazer on it and every thing is good to go for work. I love this look!

This outfit is one of my all-time favorites. Really. The classic silhouette with a twist, and gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteLove the blazer and necklace in this post! P.s. Happy belated Birthday! Mine was on the 29th (of May) so not too far from yours...I love the Tory flats from your wishlist. I just might have to buy them because brown flats are on my list right now. Whenever I'm putting together outfits, I find I am lacking brown ballet flats and brown boots, and the ones from your June 1st post are really cute.

Er - i was just thinking this on my way to work this morning! Do you have any suggestions for navy/dark blue blazers that won't break the bank?! x
ReplyDeleteThe soft colors are so pretty on you, Erin! You could also have a more casual look by pairing the dress with some flats.

what a stunner! ♥ angie
ReplyDeleteYour hair is so amazing. I am totally envious of it right now! I put a blazer over anything. It is just so easy and instantly looks put together (unless I am just a mess that day. Then not even a blazer can save me).

This outfit is amazing. So simple, yet chic. I wish I could pull it off at work. It's so conservative that if I showed up in this, they would think I'm an alien lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely outfit, very ladylike!

It does look appropriate for work, actually, and yet very stylish. Seriously, I feel a little bugged at women who wear dark pantsuits and try to look as masculine as possible when they're in a position of power. Anna Wintour doesn't do that, and oh, she's powerful.
