A Neutral Palette



gifted Joie Dress.  Vince Sweater Coat.  Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti Boots (similar).
gifted Brahmin Trina Tote.  Vintage Belt.

This sweet Joie dress has been hanging in my closet begging to be worn and yesterday it was finally warm enough (albeit with thigh high boots and a sweater coat, but still)! I'm looking forward to the day when I can wear this little lace number sans the sweater, but until then I'm just thankful for the delightful mid-week temperature spike.

The dress looks like it could be really cute!

I like the thigh high boots and the knotted belt especially!

I wish we'd get a mid-week temperature spike here.

The sweater coat is perfect for the weather on the east coast. I could have used it in my "Wish I Was Wearing" post today! It's all about dressing for transitional weather.

You look amazing! I really like all of the neutrals that you paired together. Also the lace really adds another dimension to this outfit especially because of the way that you mixed with all of the other pieces. Also those boots are hot!!! Lovely post as always.
