I bought this dress from J.Crew years ago and it has since become a frock I reach for repeatedly each fall. It’s a simple, a-line shift, but the ruffles on the bottom keep it from looking too mundane. It’s also the perfect canvas for this Ann Taylor jacket.

Outfitted – The Details

Every now and then a pair of shoes come along that are too perfect to pass up, like these Kate Spade “Cora” loafers. The sparkles are irresistibly feminine, but the conservative shape keep the shoes from being too over-the-top for daytime outings.

Sartorial Summary
Top: Banana Republic (similar) // Skirt: Gap // Bag: Coach (vintage, but current version here) // Shoes: Kate Spade // Watch: Target 

Note: If you’re interested in the shoes, go down a half size. I normally wear a 7 in all Kate Spade shoes, but wear a 6.5 in these.

When my cousin’s wedding invitation landed in my mailbox, I did what most of us do: proclaim (in a closet full of clothes) that I had absolutely nothing to wear. I’m quite thankful for my lack of party-perfect dresses, otherwise I wouldn’t have purchased this dress at J.Crew. The ultra versatile frock has already become one of my favorites.

Sartorial Summary
Dress: J.Crew // Clutch: Diane von Furstenberg (similar) // Cuff: Melinda Maria (similar) // Shoes: Kate Spade (similar)

I really wanted to wear that sequin anchor tank yesterday, but there was no way I was putting plastic sequins on in 100-degree heat. Aside from a bit of dehydration, the fourth was pretty fun: gave myself a wonderfully obnoxious manicure, went to a neighborhood picnic, hung out in the pool and enjoyed our third fireworks display of the year.
