Pinkish



Dress: Black Halo Braelyn A-Line Short Sleeve Dress

This comfortable fit and flare dress is in a beautiful peachy pink. I especially like the cuts on the sleeves and how they pouf out a little. As always, Black Halo dresses are very thoughtfully crafted.

I love Black Halo dresses, but they don't tend to fit me all that well. I have to size up because of my wide hips, which then makes the top half too large for my small shoulders and frame. Some designs just don't work on an apple shape like mine... or am I an hourglass shape? I never seem to know the difference.

90s Throwback

I think this dress is a testament to the plaid rage of the mid-90s. I remember I had a black plaid skirt that I just loved. It looked like a kilt and even had the big metal pin affixed to it. I wonder now what I would say to myself about my fashion sense back in 1994.


Outfit Details:

Dress: Shoshanna Marlee Leather and Plaid Dress

It's available in a white/red/black color combo right now at Gilt.com. The dress runs a little big, so I would size down. You can see how the top doesn't really fit me quite right.

Celebrity Sighting!
Actress Camilla Belle was seen in the dress last year. I remember when she played the young Sandra Bullock in Practical Magic. I am getting so old!

Shoes: Modern Vintage T-Strap Pumps

Purse: Kate Spade New York Little Nadine

Dress Like Jess (New Girl)

Today's dress of the day may look familiar to you if you're a fan of the Fox show New Girl. Jess (Zooey Deschanel) wore the Shoshanna Cassidy dress in the 2013 episode "Quick Hardening Caulk." This episode is one of my favorites, because not only does Jess start to admit that she's really attracted to Nick (Jake Johnson), but they visit a home building store together, where everything reminds her of sex.


If you like this magenta Shoshanna dress, you can rent it from Rent the Runway, or visit Shoshanna.com to shop a variety of styles from the designer.

The black and rose gold pumps are from Kate Spade New York. You would not believe the number of compliments I get from people when I wear these shoes. Today, in Publix, the cashier went crazy over them. She even brought her manager and another cashier over to see them. The shoes are sold out, but here's a similar style.


This dress is so comfortable, so I'm excited to wear it to my company's holiday party at Couscous Atlanta tonight. Everyone has worked so hard this year; I'm extremely proud of the team at Local Marketing, Inc.!
