This was a good work dress...probably tts, but too big on me. I seem to be a size 8, but not always...you know how wonky women's sizing is. There was a side tie & shirred detail around it that gave the waist definition, but I added a cardigan because of the short sleeves. Great combination of colors in abstract dots...red, orange, burgundy, black, & white. 
I bought these Fluevogs on Poshmark last year & this is my first time wearing them...cherry, black, & orange. 
We found this M pin at Elkhorn & its been great to hold cardigans without buttons closed...
My make-up with this outfit included...Urban Decay eyeliner in Alkaline; Blood Sugar, Extraction, & Donor eyeshadow from Jeffree Star; NYX lipliner in Pumpkin; Sugarpill Cosmetics lipstick in Nectar; So Chaud lipstick by MAC; & ILNP nail polish in Misery. 
I wore this outfit to work a few times, but here are some things that happened during that time. I made dinner...big surprise...Braised Moroccan Chicken & Olives, served with Fennel al Forno. 

Pilates! Cider Cured Pork Chops with Bordelaise, served with Caramelized Apples & Onions. I found another vintage beaded cashmere cardigan on Poshmark, but the sequins fell all over the kitchen floor when I opened it...so I had to return it...but I kept the other 2 cardigans. 
I had found this silk Banana Republic dress at Vinny's in Verona...size 8 with no stretch...it will make a pretty work dress. Violet with her stuffy...she chews on it ever so gently. Pilates again...& immediately after...we went to Klein's to pick up this pad we'd seen there to see if it would help me kneel better on my fake knee during class.

  1. I have those shoes in tan/black/cherry - they are super-comfy. I don't know what Elkhorn is, but you sure get great jewelry from there - loved your massive green necklace in the last/later post.
