Boy, has the weather changed since I took these photos last weekend. The sun was shining, it was a beautiful 68 degree day and now I'm deciding which sweater and long pants to pull out and wear today, woof. I got this skater dress on sale at Lord & Taylor, seriously my new favorite store and originally planned to wear in it St. Maarten but never ended up bringing it. However, I'm still getting plenty of use out of this dress that can easily be transitioned from spring to summer.
Typically when I have a really 'girly' dress with a lot of frills or florals I try and counter it with a more masculine piece for balance, hence bringing my favorite leather jacket out as an accessory. I've never been a super girly-girl so I like to have a balance when I wear an overly feminine dress. Also, I need to quickly discuss these amazing calf hair sandals that I got on clearance from ALDO. I have trouble finding sandals that bend and don't hurt my feet but are still stylish and these were the perfect fit!
