Dress – Lace Affair // Shoes – ModCloth // Bag & Necklace – Threadsence // Bracelets & Sunnies – F21
We’re in the middle of a heat wave here. And when forced to wear clothes I am reaching for light, white, and as little as possible. So this simple dress seemed perfect. And of course I couldn’t resist wearing out my fabulous new purse. I’ve been eying it for a while, but when it went on a super duper sale, I didn’t think twice! I love a purse that has so much detail and texture. It’s shiny faux leather on the sides, fabric down the front and back, and the top orange flap is a kind of furry faux animal skin.
Weird and funky pieces seem to be drawing me in recently. I don’t think it’ll stop. I think I’m going through a slight style transition. Much further away from the sweeter dressing in the past, towards I don’t know what. We’ll see.
