You be my glass of wine, I'll be your shot of whiskey
What I'm wearing:
*Thakoon for Target Printed Dress
*anthropologie Double Torsade Necklace (similar here)
*Gap Over the Knee Cable Knit Socks (similar here)
*Bandolino Black Patent Flats (similar here)
*Mulberry Alexa Bag in Oak
Lately I've been trying to satisfy my champagne tastes on a beer budget. What better way to do this than with a Target designer collaboration? With the re-release of some old favorites (some that I have already picked up, you can see them here and here), you can look great for less, which is always a plus in my book. I'm always on the lookout for dresses with sleeves (who wants to deal with pesky layering sometimes) and I love the pleats on this one. The full skirt makes me feel a bit like a Mad Men era housewife, but I love that the print is modern. My double strand necklace can be my alternative to the stereotypical pearl
There have been hints of spring in the air, but it's still not quite warm to go completely bare legged. But I didn't feel like tights, and I really hate wearing pants, so I donned a pair of over the knee socks today. Even though its probably not warm enough for these either, I just could not make myself pull on another pair of tights. Warm weather, when are you getting here?

I am so over tights as well - I should probably invest in some over the knee socks to get me through to the warm weather! And I'm definitely going to have to be on the lookout for this Thakoon dress - it looks great on!
ReplyDeleteOh in you're in that gorgeous Thakoon dress that sold out when I blinked! I really like the pop of red and pink with the necklace!
ReplyDeleteThis is soo cute!!!!!! Absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteYes...this weather is the worst. We get RAIN this weekend. The dress+ necklace combo is gorgeous on you.

ReplyDeletecute & little
Love that dress it has such a great print. And I totally agree with the sleeves, sometimes it's so nice to not have to wear a cardi.
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing--I HATE cold weather, (and consider anything under 70 cold!). Such a cute look!
ReplyDeleteHow is NYC treating you, and, do you think you will stay there long-term?
I love how you styled the dress! I'm going to try cute socks like that next time I wear it.
ReplyDeleteI just love your dress, and really love your knee-highs! You have excellent style, and a lovely blog =)

I love this! But I feel like the socks chop you in half. Maybe pull the socks higher up to your thighs or have them right under your knees. It's still a great outfit, but its just where the socks hit you..xoxo
ReplyDeleteJust Better Together

ReplyDeleteI love the Thakoon on you! You're the first person I've seen where it looks so flattering :)
