Kettle Black Shirt Dress Planet Blue), Vintage Aviators, Express Belt, Hue Tights, Foley + Corinna, Jeffrey Campbell Platforms

I have a mild obsession with shirt dresses.  Unfortunately, most of them make me look preggers or elicit awkward looks from people who think I forgot my bottoms.  This Kettle Black number not only cinches in just the right amount at the waist, but the little ruffles along the front ensure that nobody will mistake it for something I stole from my boyfriend.  Not that there’s anything wrong with that (exhibits A & B).

    Love it. Everything about this works so well: the shoes, the tights, the dress, the belt… Plus the aves and the bright bag. With the hair, it completely clinches the whole “oh, I just threw this on and look incredibly amazing; isn’t that funny?” look. Bravo :)

    Awhile back I bought a boyfriend shirt and I don’t know how to wear it! Now I know I can wear it with a belt and tights and chunky heels! I love it, thanks!

    the color of your bag is so amazing! it’s almost an orange which i adore. also i love that you have messy hair sometimes like i do. I hate this need for polished hair all the time! i mean who has time to get a blowdry every other day haha.

    LOVE this! The waist-cinching belt and ruffles really offset the masculinity of the plaid. This is a look I may have to try for myself :)
