Polka Dot Mini Dress

What I Wore: [Dress - Gap, Shoes - Franco Sarto, Necklace - Nordstrom Rack, Lips - Revlon Matte Balm Stain in “Sultry”]

My first outfit post from London! Sorry it’s a been a while, but there has been a lot to do in the process of adjusting to my new life across the pond! Today, Kaylie and I did a bit of exploring and spent some time in the V&A museum drooling over the displays in the fashion hall (vintage Dior and Chanel, need I say more?). We then stumbled across an adorable residential area (one of many in Kensington) and thought it would be a the perfect place to take some outfit photos.

I picked up this dress from Gap on black friday (for an amazing price) because of:

1. the polka dots (they are my favorite)

2. the cut, color combo, and ‘mod’ fit of it all felt very London to me

I’ve packed a lot of dark colors for this semester, which can get to feel kind of dreary and sad after a while, but I love that this dress has a cute pattern that makes it feel a bit less serious. I’ve also been wearing these ankle boots with EVERYTHING! They’re perfect.

Happy Friday, everyone!

until next time,

OOTN: My Favorite Dress

What I Wore: [Dress: Vintage, Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs, Belt: Forever 21, Bag: Dooney & Bourke, Lips: M.A.C lipglass “Just Add Colour”]

You know that piece of clothing you have that just instantly makes you feel like a superstar whenever you put it on? It fits perfectly, encapsulates your personal style, and gives you the confidence to take on just about any situation? Well, this is that dress for me. I found this piece hanging on a rack in the most fabulous vintage store in San Francisco’s Haight a few summers ago when I was visiting my brother and sister-in-law. Right away I knew that if this dress fit than I would pay whatever it cost, a big statement for a bargain hunter like myself, to have it in my wardrobe. Luckily for me, it fits like a glove and since it’s induction into my closet has become somewhat of a signature piece for me. I know I will be wearing this dress for years to come because of it’s classic cut, pattern, and color scheme that makes it timeless and able to be paired with just about any bag, shoe, or other accessory. 

Hope you all are enjoying your last few weeks/days of summer, I know I can’t wait to break out my sweaters, boots, and tights for the soon approaching fall weather! 

Until next time,

On Saturday Morgan and I wandered through the entire Pearl District in search of a coffee shop to do homework in, this polka dot sweater was the perfect thing to wear for walking around in the cool air and curling up to do homework and sip hot drinks.
