Pastel (See Jane Wear)
banana republic chambray shirt (a staple worn here and here) + necklace (c/o), rory beca dress, h&m belt, j crew heels,
I hate it when I buy an item, like a dress, that only gets worn once or a handful of times. I bought
this dress for a wedding in June and slowly but surely it was pushed to the back of my closet. During a slight panic while furiously looking for something else, I rediscovered the said dress and determined to make it work for a more casual evening out. Chambray and a wide leather belt instantly dress anything down and this dress was no exception. The palette was soft and feminine and the chambray and leather toughened it up a bit. |
In related news, I met up with my San Francisco friend, Anh, on Saturday night along with Taylor, Audrey and Jennifer. Anh and I became friends when I was traveling out to San Fran every week for work and it was so fun to have her in my neck of the woods.

LOve how you've paired the dress with the shirt to pair it down. I have a habit of buying dresses and only wearing them once, I need to work on it.

Β PIECE OF CAKE. PEACE OF MIND.
this outfit is just so simply pretty, it's very modern marie antoinette with its colors and styling.
my weekend consisted of quite a bit of travelling to cape cod in massachusetts for a vacation. but also some pleasant antique and consignment shopping along the way!

Aww you are all so adorable! I wish I had blogger friends closer to where I live for meet-ups! I live in the middle of nowhere!
the outfit is a stunner!! glad you brought this dress back to life. i am the same way about wearing clothes – i want to get the most out of it!
I love this outfit – really cute colors and a great layering. I've never thought that a necklace like this would look good with the dress in this color, but it looks amazing!

I LOVE this outfit!! such a great combo! Chic and casual! For some reason the ends of the paragraph are being cut off where the advertisements are? I didnt know if you knew! amazing post!
Love this look – such a perfect way to style the dress and it's always satisfying to get some use out of something that's been sitting unused for a while.

What a great way to get some more wear out of this pretty dress. And what a fun little girls night!
Obsessed with this outfit!! That bold necklace is the perfect touch!
I love this dress and how you have dressed it down. I know what you mean, there are so many things that I buy and rarely wear, it's great to mix it up like you have done here.
Just discovered your blog, I'm loving it and am now following.

Oh wow, who would have thought that dress was pushed in the back of the closet. That whole look is amazing and I am not ashamed to say I am going to try my best to dupicate it.
Great post!
So, pretty soon models will be out of a job. There is something really creepy about that
This happens to me, also- I buy something, wear it once (if that) and then totally forget about it.
Great remixing; love the chambray over the dress!

Love this look layered with casual extras…the chiffon would be wayyyy to dressy for everyday street wear but that chambray totally tones down the look…especially for a night on the town with the girls…you look fantastic!
Thanks so much for visiting my blog sweets, hope to see you back again soon!

GORGEOUS. I absolutely love how you styled the dress and these photos are so pretty! I miss you!! You all look hot in that last photo! Have fun on your honeymoon!
Really good idea – Love the fact that you used the dress again by dressing it down. I have tons of dresses that never get worn – I'm going to try this out.
