Dear, Dear, Dress

Jan 21, 2011


{JACKET: JOE FRESH, DRESS: H&M, TIGHTS: AMERICAN EAGLE, NECKLACE: MADE BY ME}

I LOVE THIS DRESS! I have re-mixed this dress so many times and in so many ways that I have actually tricked the hubs into thinking that I am buying way too many “white lace dresses.” He has hinted at having our friends over for a white dress intervention. Huh! ...sounds kinda fun, can I wear my white dress?

For real though! Re-mixing has become a new way of life for me. Especially since I went on a closet blitz yesterday (pictures to come, once I feel brave) and re-worked my closet. I have also given away most of my clothes. However, that's the secret to a working closet, no? It's about working with what your "mama" gave you, or in this case ...your "credit card." Closet tip #1 from Girl and Closet: learn to re-mix the c-r-a-p out of your wardrobe.

And in other fashion related news, I am on the hunt for some fabulous aqua tights to be paired with, yup, “the dress,” and my dark grey wool trench coat -voila, I have done it again! Happy Fabulous Friday everyone. xx veronika

    Does that dress have sleeves? I'm developing a slight obsession with finding a lace dress with half-sleeves ever since I saw one in Lucky.

    Hello! Great question. It's half sleeve with some gathering at the shoulders ...the dress also has a fantastic exposed zipper in the back. Really fun!

    Love the colour of that trench! Thanks so much for the follow and comment, I really like what you've got going here on your blog! Agreed that remixing is the only way to dress these days, I've been living by the same policy :) Have a great weekend xo

    I am BIG on remixing anything that is a solid color. I remix the hell out of solid skirts, shorts, sweaters, and t shirts. Give me a print, and I panic. I can usually only think of a couple ways to wear it. It's something I need to work on.

    Love the trench btw.

    Oh, I love that dress. I don't wonder at all why you wear it as much as possible! If only we had an H&M down here in New Orleans.. or anywhere nearby :(.

    WAIT. your name is veronika too? with a k and everything? how did i not realize this earlier?! i never meet anyone with their name spelled like that (unless, of course, you're from the czech republic).

    i love this coral colored coat, it looks stunning against your dress. which is precisely why you should keep buying more of them.

    I have a white dress that I wear constantly during the summer! Normally I just wear it one way, but occasionally get a little remix together for the blog! White I really love here is your homemade necklace! So chunky and cool!
