Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog!
Spring and summer are full of special occasions-
do you have any fun events to dress up for
coming up on your calendar?
Separates are a good way to go,
especially if you will be going to events
like weddings and graduations,
where you will probably be seeing some of the same people
As much as I love a memorable dress,
I don't want to show up in the same one too often
For a spring or summer special occasion,
you don't have to break the bank and buy a whole new outfit,
(unless you want to, of course)!
With a little rummage through my closet,
I came up with a dressy look
by mixing three separates that I have not worn together before,
but mix quite nicely!
The cropped white jacket is collarless
and has a weskit style hem and open front
I usually wear this jacket in the spring and summer,
layered over a dress to give the dress a little more polish,
and also to ward off the chill when going in and out
of air-conditioned spaces
Today I am wearing the blazer over a natural cotton color crochet and sequin top. Although sparkly,
I have always chosen to wear this top in the past
dressed down with more casual pieces, usually a skirt,
because I thought the top had an earthy, natural look
I usually don't think of these white tailored trousers
as part of a dressy look, either,
but they give this outfit a bit of a dressy tuxedo vibe
in this mix
Pretty details!
The extras helped to dress this outfit up even more
Carrying my two-tone pink heart shaped handle bag
The most perfect accessory for a wedding, don't you think?
For jewelry I choose a 1950's vintage bracelet,
with a double row of pink beads,
a collar necklace entirely encircled in tiny faux pearls,
and a pair of silver tone hoop earrings with pearl detail
Around my neck is a scarf,
with the softest abstract design in rose and pink
I am also wearing a pink top knot headband
This is a lot of accessories for me!
Finally, I chose these natural tan sling backs
with ivory trim, a cute side bow and low heels
It must be love! 💞
Hope you have some lovely
spring and summer events to attend
and are ready with just the right outfit
Have a great week!
