I've loved midi dresses since I was a kid, and I'm pretty sure that watching reruns of I Love Lucy are mostly to blame. I started wearing midi skirts and dresses a few years ago when they became trendy again, and I still can't let them go. Midi dresses are so feminine, and they can also be surprisingly comfortable. I love being able to move around freely in a midi length while still looking polished.
After seeing this dress on Lilly last Spring, I immediately bought it and have worn it countless times since. Dinners, a family gathering, and more recently on the plane ride to Mexico! Hey, the elastic waist makes it feel like I'm wearing sweatpants.

In order to bring the dress into Fall, I simply added the moto jacket I raved about in my last post. Camel and blush pink look beautiful, and I decided to tie them together with white accessories (which are still very much on trend for Fall and Winter). Who says you can't wear white after Labor Day? For that matter, who says you can't bring your warm weather favorites into the colder months? I've really been on a mission this year to get the most use out of different pieces in my closet and although I struggle with it at times, I think I've done well overall. I'm much happier dressing (and blogging!) this way and I hope I'm giving you some ideas!

Love this blush and camel combo and I will for sure copy it. I haven't been wearing my fave midi skirt lately. I need to work on that.

This blush and camel combo is so pretty! And a nice refreshing color palette change for fall. And I agree with you about white. Those antiquated rules about not being able to wear certain colors in certain season...meh. Pointless in this day and age!

I love midi dresses too, definitely the most feminine length. I won't be able to wear an airy number like you are wearing with our current temps, but I am rocking my midi sweater dresses :P
ReplyDeleteOoooo I have a sweater dress on my wishlist! I hope you’re feeling better now Saadeh :)
DeleteCamel and blush are so perfect together! I love that dress, it's feminine and flattering, and anything which feels like wearing sweatpants gets my vote!

Love this combo! I'm with you on getting the most use out of the pieces in my closet! Plus, it doesn't hurt to push myself and my creativity to figure out how to wear my summer and spring items again in the fall! It's fun!

Thank you Virginia! It really is fun to come up with new ways to style old favorites! It’s challenging, but the outcome can be great.
DeleteAs you probably know, midi dresses and skirts are my absolute favorite!! I love this gorgeous pale pink on you. I think they are super versatile as you can add layers like you have done and taller boots/tights if needed.
