Polka Dot Scarf & Sunnies

Outfit Details:

scarf: vintage

dress: Target

sunglasses: C Wonder

shoes: via Thredup

necklaces: Chloe & Isabel; Charming Charlie

ring: Olytata

This dress I got from Target is one of those perfect dresses to throw on when nothing else is working. As you can tell that is a common trend in my wardrobe. I love having easy pieces to throw on that are not only comfortable, but can give you a different look just by the addition of certain accessories. 

For instance here, I'm trying that cool girl vibe. I have so many scarves that were my great aunt's that I have decided to start inserting them into my outfits more often to add something different to my wardrobe.

These are some beautiful cat eyed sunnies I got while perusing what C Wonder had to offer. It was instant love because I had been searching for these for quite some time.

Time to Wear White

Do you really have to follow the rule: Only wear white after Memorial Day and until Labor Day?

Personally I don't think you do. As always in fashion there are exceptions to the rules. For example a winter white pant suit or just the pants paired with a slouchy sweater can be the perfect winter outfit to feel fresh and not dulled down by the dreary weather.

When there are too many rule, fashion can seem harder than it has to be; so the best way to decided when to wear what is to look at your outfit and ask:

Do these fabrics add the much needed warmth to brave the weather outside?

Does this outfit make some sense (even if it is hidden logic)? 

Is it flattering to my figure? Or does the outfit make me want to hide under the covers?

All these questions will help to guide you into knowing what white you can wear and when; which does not just apply to the color of the clothes, but the fabric and the fit as well--try to keep all of these in mind.
