Ruffled

October 7, 2015 by jessica

BR-Black-Dress-2

Well, my hair was curled when I left the house … not so much after a few minutes standing outside in the wind! Oh, well, ’tis the reality of blogging, right? The other reality is that I’ve been wearing this dress at least once a week since purchasing it at the beginning of September. It’s such an easy piece to throw on for those “I have nothing to wear!” days and nothing is as forgiving as an a-line swing dress for “not-so-skinny” days. This is basically how I’ve been wearing it on the weekends (bring on the big jewels!). For work, I usually layer a button-down shirt underneath (love this and this) and slip on my favorite flats.

    the ruffled hem is just darling, and your necklace is as gorgeous as ever. Nothing worse than the weather ruining your hair!

    At least the wind gives your hair a little bit of that wind swept chic look. I love the Zara shoes. :]
