Outfits Not Just Clothes

I picked up this dress in the spring and have worn it casually throughout the summer. Love how it coordinates with this oversized pullover I've had for a few years. Grabbed some sneakers, a ballcap, and sunglasses for a day out an about.  And now And some accessory details! Another sweater change-up! dress-Universal Standard(more options here ), sweater-Nordstrom Rack(similar here ), hat- Gap , sunnies- Diff Eyewear , bag- Herschel , necklaces- Mejuri , bracelet- BaYou with Love , sneakers-Ascis(similar here )  There's a lovely tone-on-tone/monochromatic effect happening with the color story of burgundy, mauve, and lavender in this outfit. There's surprising amount of versatility in styling this sweater with the dress. I went with an unexpected, skewed wrap around for the first series of pics, then donned it traditionally, and lastly slung it over the tote.  Be on the look out for an upcoming post on another dress & sweater combo with this maxi-dress...

 When IS a jumpsuit just a jumpsuit?.... Never! A good jumpsuit is EVERYTHING. Preference on "good". An ill-fitting, pulling-at-all-the-wrong-places, contortionist-required jumpsuit or romper is the worst. The worst, obviously after war, famine, and drought. Here I'm living the last few days of school-free summer in this chambray beauty.  jumpsuit/necklace-Banana Republic(more options here and here ), sunnies-Ralph Lauren(similar here ), bracelet- BaYou With Love , bag--Shiraleah(similar here ) , shoes-Born(similar here ) I've mostly worn this jumpsuit as "overalls" as seen here , here , and here . This sunny summer day, I went with the throw-it-on-and-go approach, pairing this one-piece with gold jewelry and neutral accessories.
