Hello all!!! I am finally back from a very unexpected and long hiatus. If I told you all the things that have been going on lately, you probably wouldn't believe me!! I will talk more about some of these things soon once I have a chance to fully absorb everything myself.
Even though I haven't had much time for blogging, I have really missed you all - I have so much fall fashion I want to share and hope to get some more photos done soon. Fashion this season has been really amazing, and I have found some great pieces. In my stress, I have also done way too much shopping. Bad things for my wallet, but cool things for my wardrobe. Ha, ha!
One of my favorite fall casual looks is an easy dress paired with a moto jacket and comfy booties. This look isn't about following trends. While I love playing with trends because they sometimes encourage me out of my box, more and more, I choose clothing based on my visceral reactions. Do I say "ooh" or "ah" when I first see a garment? When I try it on, does it feel good? Is it comfortable? Does it make me feel how I want to feel in the given moment? I try (and often fail) to also balance those visceral reactions with an intellectual assessment of my wardrobe needs. Does this piece serve a place in my wardrobe? Will I wear it a lot or only on occasion?
This dress is one of those pieces that fulfills both emotional and practical needs for me. It will definitely become a weekend warrior in my wardrobe!
This dress is from a small capsule collection created by blogger Natalie of The Tiny Closet. I absolutely love her aesthetic - it's minimalist with an artistic twist.
The Weekender dress that I am wearing here is the perfect navy color, and the v-neck and double thigh slits give this dress such a free and easy feel.
It is a little sheer, and I wish it was lined or in a
slightly more opaque fabric, but otherwise, this dress really is
perfection. I paired it with a black slip for more coverage, but for an evening out, I would pair with a low-cut body suit to get the full effect of the dress.
As of right now, The Tiny Closet shop only offers sizes XS-XL. I am wearing an XL here. Because the fit of the dress is so easy, it could likely accommodate up to a size 20/22.
