It was unseasonably warm today. The temperature is up and down like a yo-yo. (Canadians love talking about the weather - it's our third most popular national pastime after hockey and curling.)
Dress: Mode Merr via Pretty Things Boutique
Sweater: Danier via Value Village
Boots: Bought in Las Vegas
Tights: Hue from Sock it to Me! (I'm actually wearing 2 pairs of tights.)
I
really like this dress but it doesn't look quite the same on me as it
does on the models on the Mode Merr website. It's a nice comfortable and
soft cotton though.
I think I will hem this up about 10cms or so. Its current length is a bit unflattering.
There is a lot of pattern going on in this outfit - fun!
I bought these boots at a tiny store in a mall in Las Vegas. They aren't a particular brand but at the time I'd been trying to find some nice flat riding boots with buckles, and I had to go all the way to Las Vegas to find them.
Unfortunately these darn buckles almost immediately ripped a big hole in these tights. I may have sworn rather loudly when I did that.
My two favourite things - Duran Duran and shoes.
Ooh, I hate when buckles do that! I have black flat riding boots with one buckle on the calf and they have done the exact same thing!
ReplyDeleteI like the dress very much - I think it will look good at knee length. It's a bit much otherwise (and you have good legs - show them off!).
I so can't wear this shade of grey, but I love it on others. Lovely mix, Megan!
Love your layered tights, sorry about the boots! I got rid of a pair of boots that kept snagging everything (my fly london grey ones with the buckles).
ReplyDeleteI think the dress will look great right above the knee, the pattern is really fantastic though.
I have similar coloring to Sheila, and have trouble wearing it too. But it's seriously one of my favorite colors.
