Black & Blue

Black & Blue- Miike Snow
This is definitely the most ladylike dress I own, which took a little while to get used to! The polka dots and pretty way it moves just sold me though, and I have to get away from mini skirts at some point in my life (or so I've been told). It was perfect for yesterday and I felt quite vintage all day (I had to throw a cardigan on for work though as it's the same temperature as a meat locker!) 
Dress: Zellers (for real!)
Hat: American Apparel
Boots and Turquoise Ring: Aldo
Tights: Le Chateau
Belt: Vintage


Tonight I'm in need of a little r & r... and a strawberry milkshake. Luckily, I fully intend of checking both these items off my list! I'm going to curl up on my big comfy couch and watch the Gossip Girl Premiere (only kind of follow the show, but the clothes and the fact that the episode is in Paris are huge draws!). I'm also hoping to finally get caught up with all this Fashion Week info, I love all the snippets of the shows I've seen so far and have been itching to get the full runway rundown!

  2. I love how easy to transit a summer dress into a fall outfit by just adding on a pair of stockings and boots! =) love this look!

  5. "She's a lady..ooh woe ooh woe ooh woe." Sorry I couldn't resist! You look every bit the lady. Perhaps even one who lunches!! I love the way you styled this. It's perfect from hat to toe. And I know what you mean about needing a cardigan at work. The gym is quite literally like a meat locker ha! I hope you had fun at comedy night on Wednesday. xx

    P.S Zellers?? You have serious skills Louise!

  6. I TRIED ON THIS DRESS! but was so broke at that particular moment I couldn't justify it. I love it though, it looks fantastic on you and I love it paired with those boots!! Such a sweet vintage vibe you've got going on!

  7. i love that hat! And I can't believe that dress is from ZELLERS! It makes me feel like I need to go exploring... that and I saw an Alfred SUng commercial on TV the other day for them as well... They're definitely stepping up their game. Probably to compete with the evil walmart takeover!

  11. Whilst the dress is very elegant and pretty - I find myself more drawn to the Hat. It punctuates your face so well. X

  12. Such a pretty dress!
    It looks so lovely on you, and the floppy hat is just the perfect touch...

    Oh, I watched the GG premire,too on Friday. The clothes are just to die for (Blaire's dinner date dress!?!), but I've got to say I'm tired of the frenemie thing between Serena and Blair... Bring on a new story line!

  14. You look like a lady who lunches in this outfit and I LOVE it! That hat is too cute on you. I'm really happy to have Serena and Blair back in my life too. I had missed them and their outfits.

  15. STOP!! You got that dress at Zellers?? It is entirely adorable and fantastic on you!! I love the entire look. The way you added in your own personal touches (boots included) takes the whole thing to a new level. Yahoo!
