Little White Dress


Dress: H&M
Belt: Impressionist scarf from Gap
Shoes: Martin and Osa
Bag: Coach - thrifted
Sunglasses: Old Navy

Got this little white dress couple weeks ago. I really like how it fits and it's a great summer dress. (especially for a brunch on a nice day like today!) But...it's pretty see-through so it's kind of annoying to remember to wear the right undergarments. This is the same Gap scarf I wore in the previous posts but this time I did the scarf belt following Elaine's tutorial (see here). I really like how it looks, especially the contrast with the white dress.

Picked up these aviators from Old Navy today. It's really hard to sunglasses to fit my face shape because it is on the smaller side so if I do find them, I usually buy it...heh.

Finally, a vacation.


Tank, Belt, Necklace: J.Crew
Shorts: Hollister
Shoes: Martin & Osa
Scarf: Gap

Went away for the holiday weekend. The weather changed quite a bit and this 'impressionist' scarf from Gap is a great accessory to have on a trip like this. This is the first time I wore it as a scarf and I really like how it looks! I have to say this again, I love love loveee the colors in the scarf and the material can make a outfit look more classy. I want to try Elaine's scarf belt sometime with this and a white dress. Perhaps in a later post this week!

Impressionism.


Shirt: China | Cardigan, Belt: J.Crew | Jeans: H&M | Scarf: Gap | Shoes: Minnetonka 

I got this scarf yesterday at Gap (see item) - I love the blue colors! Gap calls it the 'Impressionist print scarf' and it totally brings back memories of my high school days, when I took an art history course and spent hours memorizing paintings. Impressionism was definitely one of my favorite periods because the paintings were less detailed, yet you can still make out the subjects. I also really like the material of this scarf...it's so soft and hangs nicely. 

Anyway! I tried the whole belting the scarf look today. Not sure if I like it - the scarf didn't really stay under the belt - maybe because it is too short, or I did not belt it tightly...or both.

Purple alligator


Shirt: Lacoste
Pants: H&M
Shoes: Aldo
Scarf: Gap

I got these shoes a couple years ago at one of the Aldo stores in Chicago. After wearing them a couple time, I find them extremely uncomfortable to walk long distance in- same with almost all Aldo shoes I have tried on so far. The bottom the shoes are not as cushioned as shoes from Banana Republic. I got these shoes mostly for the color - I love the plum shade with the wedged heel.

Yes, I am wearing the same scarf again...After I buy something, I find myself wearing that item repeatedly until I get sick of it...and then move on to something else.
