While taking this picture my husband whispered, "Steeler Shoes!"
My nose is chilly.
sweater-Saks off Fifth (similar here), dress-BB Dakota c/o of Jupe (more BB Dakota dress here) necklaces-Cookie Lee, bracelets-H&M/JewelMint, shoes-gifted,
bag-Forever21(similar here).
I really enjoy this dress from BB Dakota I got at Jupe here in the South Side for several reasons, the least of which are the pockets! I love pockets, they are the best friend any outfit can have. I also enjoy the material and print in this dress. I really dig the "shards" of landscape that look as if they are ripping through the black. Poetic, eh?
Anyway, I wore this cocktail dress with a more casual/comfortable sweater coat, 1) because its practical and 2) because I enjoy putting casual and formal pieces together. The thing to be aware of is that having casual and dressier pieces can look a bit of a hot mess if you're not careful. I think the best way to pull it off is to keep the shoes chic. A great heel will never do you wrong.
Oh and I have to say how much I love this bag! Even though its from a fast-fashion store it looks totally vintage, which I tell people it is because I'm sneaky like that, but now you know the truth.
