Sassy




Sunnies: Vince Camuto | Earrings: Express | Jacket: JCrew Factory | Dress: Express (option, optionoption) | Heels: MICHAEL Michael Kors (option, super sassy option here) | Bag: Gucci

I definitely feel all sorts of sassy in this dress. I was happy to get my hands on it! I first saw it thanks to my Express sleuth, Gina, who spotted it on Christine Marie and pinned it here. It quickly sold out, but I was able to snag it beforehand! (You can see how it looks without the jacket here.) I realize that my denim jacket and sky high heels kind of contradict each other, but that's half the reason why I picked them for this dress - I love pairing casual things with dressier pieces. And I'm finally wearing my chevron earrings! How fun are they?

  4. Sighhhh...I'm so jealous of this dress. I still get re-pin notices about that every day and it's like a reminder that I missed the boat. I guess this striped dress is this year's version of the striped tank I missed last year! Love the pairing with the jean jacket and glad you finally busted out those chevron earrings! Love those!

    1. Well, maybe it will be like the pave link necklace and it will randomly appear one day! Fingers crossed!

      It's hard for me not to reach for red when I wear black and white. It's so instinctive!

  9. Fun! Those shoes are super sassy! I love pairing my denim jacket with dressier things to balance them out, so I think this is great.

    1. Thanks, nicole! I thought I would keep it a little neutral-fied with the jacket!

  10. You always look PERFECT in B+W Stripes. I mean it. I too love that dress with the different-sized stripes. I am wearing a similar skirt today (you should check it out). This Stripey Look and the one you did a while ago of the mixing+matching of the pencil skirt and boat-neck top making them look like a dress, I am in love with, Carylee. =)

    BTW, you asked a while ago about a shoe post. How about a video tour of your entire closet. And then you can focus on your shoes and bags by showing us lots of photos of them. =)) Hope you like the idea and I am looking forward to that post. LOL
