Why, hello again! You guessed it, it's Elana from Room 334 here and I'm so excited to share my first swap with Leah of We Live Upstairs! I was thrilled when Leah joined our group since I've been drooling over her wardrobe and mad layering skills since the moment I discovered her blog. I adored this dress (that I'm wearing as a top) on Leah when I saw it on her blog, but wasn't quite sure I could pull it off as well as she did. I love prints, but tend to shy away from intricate ones for myself without even realizing it. I tend to stick to solids, polka dots, and stripes and not even on purpose. I finally decided that since this was os unlike anything I owned, and exceptionally pretty, I wanted to try it and I'm incredibly happy that I did.
Just me, being attractive. |
To feel like I was at least a little bit creative, I decided to wear the dress as a top and wore it under my favorite white pleated skirt. As usual, I couldn't help but throw a collar underneath and I was glad to see that this dress was the perfect way to finally wear this cardigan that has been sitting in my room untouched for at least a few months now. All that layering and I'm happy with how it turned out!
Of course, I still don't think I wore it even half as well as Leah. Doesn't she just look perfect? I'm on the hunt for a pair of booties exactly like hers!
Nice dress :)

I tried to comment on your blog then accidentally closed the page. I love that you toned down the dress a bit by pairing it with that skirt - it's really brilliant and looks like they came together. You look adorable.

Oh that pattern is super pretty! And it works perfectly with a collar! I love it Elana. You should wear more intricate prints cuz you're awesome at styling them! And Leah's booties are perfect, plus I love the little neck tie she added.
