MY STYLE FIX: TWEED SHEATH DRESS

Happy Monday! The weather was perfect this weekend, which was awesome, but sort of inconvenient, in an oh my God I haven't shaved in days, and now I have to wear a dress since it's so beautiful outside, kind of way. 
 
I mean prior to this weekend, even though my BF would adamantly disagree due to the whole prickly leg situation, there was no valid reason to engage in hair removal, especially when the body part in question is fully covered, and out of sight due to the cooler temps.  
Sure smooth soft skin would be nice. You know that unattainable type that some bitch model flaunts in your face for some beauty product, which no matter how much of it you slather on all over your body, you won't come close to ever in your life achieving. 
Shaving my legs to get that smooth soft skin would be great, but I'm lazy, and the extra five minutes it takes in the shower to shave could be better spent, especially when layers of clothing will cover everything any way.  
However, this weekend, as it was warm enough to lose the layers, there was no hiding, so I gladly shaved. I opted to wear a dress, which I layered with a blouse, paired with pumps, and I went out and enjoyed the beautiful weather hairless and all. 
Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

      Thanks Rachel! Layering is such a great way to get creative and mix things up a bit in the Fall. I really love the color of the blouse, and the way it brought so much life to the dress. The cool thing is that if you switch out the blouse for something else, you can totally change the entire look. Can't wait to do more pairing with this piece. So glad you stopped by. Hope you're enjoying your week so far. Xo

      Hey Charnele! Thank you so much for you're awesome comment. I think it's so cool that Fall allows us to play around with layers. I love mixing and matching colors and textures during this type of weather, because it's sort of that in between stage where you can still get away with stuff like that. It's just so much fun. Thanks for stopping by! Xo

      Thanks CC!! The colors are everything. Even though the temps have fallen which is so depressing, the beautiful scenery sort of makes up for it. I love the way the blouse echoes the backdrop and allows the outfit to pop. Thanks for stopping by. Xoxo

      Lmao! Karen, I can't say I've ever tried a shopping fast. I always admire people who can do things like that, since I don't think I would make it. I'm so glad that you found some ideas here. Enjoy your weekend and Happy Shopping!!

    I love the bag and the blouse, but the dress is a bit too buttoned-up for my style. But the combination looks good on you. Very 60's.

      Thank you so much! I know exactly what you mean about buttoned-up, especially when it comes to sheath dresses. But, there was something a bit untraditional about this dress that spoke to me. I immediately loved the leather trim, which is also echoed in the back. That minor detail combined with the length of the dress, juxtaposed to the traditional elements, was major enough to allow me to make the purchase. Can't wait to pair it in different ways. If you pop in, and happen to see it, I would love to here what you think. Xo
