As I Place My Collar

40 Comments Edit

I'm quite enamored with my newest little black dress (you can never have enough of those, right?). It looked appealing online, but it's even better in person. The shape is my absolute favorite to wear and I really enjoy the longer sleeves this time of year. It's also a nice backdrop for some more personal accessories like my lace collar and these new red heels...which is pretty much how my style goes: take something rather basic and throw a lot of quirky details on top.

Outfit details:
Forever 21 coat (2 yrs old)
dress via StyleFind gift card
Clinque red red red lipstick

    beautiful shoes! I've always felt that women who wear red shoes are special. This outfit reminds me of if Wed. Adams were more grown up and less surly

    I thought that this outfit was so cute with the lace collar and gorgeous red heels, then I saw that the heels have these little scalloped design. Details! ah, heaven is in them. :) I like how your outfit looks like you took the classic children's Christmas outfit and made it grown-up.

    I love the shoes. Your style sounds like mine. Take the basics, and dress them up. It's a good way to approach your style.
