30for30: Twenty-seven


I went through a lot of pieces before walking out of the house in this. You can take a look at my bedroom floor if you don't believe me. Well you can't really take a look at my floor, so I guess you just have to believe me. I'm glad I went through a lot of pieces, though. Now that I am looking at these photos, I really like this look. I would have worn navy tights with this, but I don't have any and I can't go buy a pair. Luckily the wind took a chill-pill and let me snap these photos in peace and sunshine-warmth. Thank you, wind. 

Oh yeah, I did something new and exciting with this outfit. I wore a tunic under my dress. I went through two shirts before trying the tunic - and it pretty much decided for me. I loved it. It's kind of weird, but it works. It also adds a layer - which additionally adds warmth. So, that's awesome. 

Dress: Target
Tunic: NY&Co.
Cardigan: Kohls

  2. I do believe you are channeling Kendi in this look! The photos, the stance, the outfit. Well done!

  3. The blue is a great choice. And the tunic has the same appearance as a white button-up would, so why not?
    This is one of my favorites of yours.

  13. So cute! I would never think to layer a tunic under a dress but it's very clever. And warm. Even better. :)

  22. Gorgeous. The navy is a nice change up from straight black--which I'm sure is the only thing I could have come up with to pair with a leopard print cardigan.
