Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog!
Spring is just around the corner, and I can't wait!
While most of us are looking forward to warmer temperatures, the reality is,
we are still in the midst of the coldest weather of the season and have to dress accordingly
Warm and cozy clothing is still called for,
so this week I am featuring two snug and comfortable knit dresses
that I am currently wearing
For my first outfit for the end of winter
I chose a black and white mock neck sweater knit dress
with a windowpane pattern
Layering a bright royal blue pullover sweater on top
Two layers of knits=toasty warm!
Carrying my 1960's vintage handle bag with the big, bold buckle detail
For jewelry, I chose a mix of modern and vintage pieces
A favorite 1960's gold tone reticulated leaf pendant,
vintage dome shaped earrings
and a modern bracelet with a blue triangular fossil
These wide, shiny black vinyl accessories
give this outfit a 60's vibe, I think
Low wedge heel tassel loafers to complete the outfit
My second outfit this week is a chunky purple rib knit dress,
brightened up with some colorful accessories
Large, cozy scarf š§£ of a multicolored pixelated print
of turquoise, purple, royal blue, and grey around my neck
Carrying my turquoise quilted bag
It has a gold tone cross body chain strap tucked inside
For jewelry, dyed teal green stone stud earrings
and a two toned gold and rose gold tone wrap bracelet
Tan wooden stacked heel loafers to complete this warm winter outfit
(Oops, photographed them at an angle that the heels are not visible,
they appear to be floating LOL!)
Flashback to February 2017,
when I was wearing a sweater vest over a sweater dress
Don't know why I edited the subtle plaid Ralph Lauren bag out of my wardrobe (regret)
I think my reasoning at the time was that I rarely wore brown
In recent years, I have been holding on to things and storing them
Even if I don't wear them for a season,
the classics come back, and back around again!
Hope you all have a good week!
Indeed! Our heads may be half in spring, but it is still very cold! I can't wait either. Love the last shoes, very elegant. And the blue bracelet! Have a good start of the week.

Love the layering of the blue sweater over the dress - practical and visually very interesting! The turquoise/teal accessories are gorgeous. I hear you about your handbag edit regret - it's so often worth holding on to the classic pieces even if they're not in high rotation for you at a given time.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to layer over top of that first dress to add warmth and color! And I like that you belted them all to give them more shape. These all look fabulous on you! I especially like your blue triangular bracelet. You always have great accessories!
ReplyDeleteThe layering over the first dress is inspired, and adds a great pop of cobalt. Love Teal and your accessories. I hear you on getting rid of a bag and regretting it. I'm always doing that!
ReplyDeleteOh Di, you should have joined us with The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. The theme was knit dress! These are great!
ReplyDeleteI really like how well you wear these knit dresses! the second outfit is my favourite though, I just adore the pops of turquoise, the accessories are perfect! :)
