Spring Tweed


I bought the dress on major sale during my shopping trip to South Coast Plaza with Sandy a while back.  The fit on this wasn't perfect but with the extra 30% off sale price plus the 15% education discount, I decided the fit issues were acceptable for the price and not worth the extra alteration costs.  Another selling point for me was the fact that this dress can be worn 3 seasons in California -- bare-legged for spring and with a blouse or turtleneck and tights for fall and winter.

I wore this to work a couple weeks back and swapped out flats for heels and my white coat for this white blazer for dinner with friends.  





White blazer: Zara (old. Similar here and here). Tweed dress: J. Crew. Black pumps: Zara (old. Similar here). 
Necklace: Ann Taylor Loft (old). Black caviar quilted shopper tote: Chanel.

  3. This looks great on you. I bought something similar but Colin says I look like a sexy amish woman. I really have no idea what to make of that...but it doesn't motivate me to wear it often! Maybe I need to get it tailored to fit better...

  5. I have the same dress and felt the same way about the fit (a little off, but too good of a deal to pass up). Looks great on you! :)
