If you follow along with my fashion adventures on Instagram, you may already be tired of this dress. Because, clearly, I am in LOVE. Aside from the ease of getting dressed with one simple piece, I am totally on-board with the entire 1970’s trend that is continuing from summer straight into fall! I’ve already shared my love for flares and flannel, and with the addition of clogs, a sherpa-lined vest, and a poncho; my fall wardrobe is greatly influenced by the throw-back to this fashionable era.
As I’ve noted in previous posts, just be careful that you’re look doesn’t ready entirely too retro (you want to look fashion-forward rather than in costume). I achieve this here by adding more modern accessories that are still in keeping with the vibe of the dress – a peep toe bootie isn’t too straight-laced and the slouchy, tasseled clutch echoes the tassels on the dress (and the amazing navy color!)
Finally, have we talked about how a red lip can transform your look (if not your entire outlook on life?!)? I generally tend to keep my makeup look simple, but a pop of lip color can really brighten your complexion, not-to-mention take a look from good to great! Particularly this time of year (as we lose our summer glow), some color can do wonders for drawing attention to your face.
