Dress: Re:named Ruffle Dress (sized up to a medium) | Bag: J.W. Anderson Medium Pierce Bag (also available in small & large) | Boots: Stuart Weitzman Highland Over the Knee Boot | Watch: Daniel Wellington Classic Sheffield c/o | Bracelet: Baublebar Imani Bracelet c/o
This floral mini dress sold out and was just recently restocked so I had to share it with you guys right away. The print and bright color is so fun and the three quarter sleeves and bow-tie front make it fall-worthy. I personally feel like this brand runs a size small. I sized up to a medium when I am almost always a small, and I am so glad I did because it would have been WAY too short otherwise. I wore a white off the shoulder dress by same brand (styled in this post) and I got that one in a medium too (and could barely get it closed).
When I can find a great fall dress that’s under $100 I feel like I have hit the jackpot especially since I just splurged on these Stuart Weitzman Highland over-the-knee boots. I love my SW burgundy OTK boots (styled here, here, and here) so much that I knew I was going to invest in another pair this year. Because I already own a pair of the “lowland” style which has a smaller heel, I got the “highland” which has a high heel (makes it easy to remember right). For me these are a great investment. The same style is reintroduced year after year so they stay current. In the past I have tried more affordable brands of over-the-knee boots, and the problem is they fall down my legs. Even if I cinch and tie them as tight as I can on the top, they still sag down where I am constantly pulling them up. I have never had that issue with my Stuart Weitzman’s. They are slim fitting enough that I don’t have to adjust even after wearing all day yet they still fit over my skinny jeans.
Shopbop is having a huge sale event where almost everything (some designer exclusions) is 25% off when you spend up to $500 or 30% off over $500. This dress is included in the deal. It is already bargain priced, but with the sale it’s a no-brainer. So far, from the sale I purchased these booties. I am also contemplating buying all new underwear and throwing out most of my current selection. Probably a little TMI but to me that’s just the best feeling. I don’t like to keep the same underwear or makeup for very long. If I could buy absolutely anything from the sale, it would be these lace-up leather leggings. I tried them on at Neiman’s right before fashion week, and I would have gotten them for my trip but they didn’t have the right size. They are incredible on, but definitely an investment!
I will be rounding up my favorite picks from the sale (not including underwear ha!) so be sure and check back soon! Sale ends 11/14/2016 11:59 p.m. PST.
