[dress: c/o apart style / skirt + tights: h&m / shoes: oaknyc / belt: vintage / glasses: c/o warby parker]

This weekend I spent most of my time out and about enjoying the city. I wanted to get dressed up for a day on the town so I reached for this new patterned dress, which happens to be called the Art School Dress. Figures because I AM an art school girl 😉 And yes! It’s a dress, cleverly tucked under my skirt. Never underestimate the power of a strong shoulder to add a little sass to your step. The silk texture was fun next to the toughness of the faux leather skirt.

I headed to the Reading Terminal Market for a bite to eat and some food shopping with friends. My life most definitely rotates around food. Something that can bring people together to just be relaxed, enjoy the company, and stuff our faces with goodness. Dinner party anyone?? Lol. Hope everyone is having a great week! Half way through guys. Good work! xo

    Absolutely Mrs. K - Wow what an outfit, that blouse, what an extraordinary phenomenal blouse. That print and the shoulders…. The leather skirt looks smashing. so hard to wear a leather skirt, very tricky. The gold funny belt makes it impeccable. The finishing touchReplyCancel

    SweetLaundry - This dress (as a top) is AWESOME. I didn’t even know it was a dress until you mentioned it. I can’t wait to see how you style the dress on it’s own, but it looks great with this leather skirt. And the side bun is PERFECTION.ReplyCancel
