Tried & True

Striped Dress & Utility Jacket
I can't be the only girl over this awful in between seasons stage. We've had sunny spring weather, only to be threatened with snow a week later. I mean, not to be harsh, but Mother Nature is being a real moody b***h. 
I'm very uninspired this time of year (I'm really just holding out for Spring colors), so I stick to my tried-and-true staples: a classic striped dress, layered with my overworn utility vest, tights and booties. Sparkle and red lipstick for the sake of my sanity, of course. 
P.S. If you're looking for some sparkle of your own, Bauble Bar is having an amazing President's Day Sale!

  3. Haha! You just called mother Nature a B***h! I am totally with you. Last week was nice, and now we are stuck inside. Not fun. I do love this dress, and how you styled it.

  15. Great outfit! The camo vest is one of my favorites pieces in my closet; it goes with just anything. Love the dress and booties! I don't see you unispired at all, but I totally understand the feeling. We all can't wait for Spring!
