The Real Black and Tan

    Hello! Hannah from The Braided Bandit here! So, on most Tuesday nights in college you could find me at a little dive bar in town for trivia night with friends.  I was never any good at trivia and attended mainly for the friends and beer, though I had the fields of things like baby animals or baby daddies covered.  Anyway, I am telling you this because our team was called "The Real Black and Tan"(a Black and Tan being a drink made of both a pale ale and a dark stout) and I thought of it as soon as I laid eyes on this amazing dress Elana loaned me!
 Outfit Details: Dress - borrowed from Elana // Necklace - c/o Oasap // 
Oxfords - co/ American Apparel // Glasses - Ray Bans

     I absolutely LOVE the black and tan stripes and I think this may now make the top of the list of favorite pieces I have ever borrowed from the lovely Flock Together gals.  The neutral color scheme makes it have endless remixing potential and the stripes are just perfect.  I am now on the hunt for my own copy of this dress to add to my fall wardrobe!  Since the dress felt so classic to me, I decided to wear my glasses in the photos and paired it with my favorite red oxfords.
    This is how the adorable Elana styled her dress! I adore here tan ankle strap flats and the pop of coral lipstick she's been sporting lately is amazing!  Thanks so much for letting me borrow this!
Have a wonderful day and happy Friday!

  1. Love this dress, black and beige are such a gorgeous and classic combination. It really does lend itself to be remixed in so many ways because of that!!
