| BLACK AND WHITE DRESS - Velvet YELLOW CARDIGAN - Gap Outlet ZEBRA EARRINGS - Heavenly Treasures WHITE WATCH - Sprout MULTI-COLORED WEDGES - Cynthia Vincent for Target |
Today I wore a black and white Velvet brand dress I purchased from a local boutique. I really like Velvet dresses because they're so comfortable (no, they're not made of velvet but jersey). Still in my pattern mixing mood from yesterday, I decided to pair the dress with my favorite Cynthia Vincent for Target wedges and some zebra earrings. I added the yellow cardi for some color.
Anyway, I have to say my style has definitely evolved since starting this blog. I don't worry so much about matching perfectly, and I like to experiment by mixing patterns, colors, even styles. I guess you could say my style has evolved, much like my parenting!

that's a flattering dress! like the way you mixed the patterns and the pop of color with the sweater. Pigtails is so funny! Can totally picture her doing that!!
I think you did another fantastic job with mixing prints! Love Velvet dresses, they're really comfortable and versatile!
I still can't believe I didn't get those wedges when they were at Target. This is such smart pattern mixing with the neutrals and the pops of color. You look fabulous.
And the cupcake story? Awesome!
That cupcake story is adorable! I know exactly what you mean.
This is such a lovely dress and I love the wedges with it!

I love your blogging/parenting analogy! I'm not a parent (not yet anyway) but I definitely can say my style has evolved because of blogging. I love your pattern mixing here--I'm so in love with those shoes!!
OH MY WORD! You have the Cynthia V. Wedges from Target! I looked high and low and low and high for those! I'm so so so uber jealous! They are adorable on you!
Aww, what a cute story! Love the dress as well - it looks great paired with that cardi.

The bust line of that dress is so flattering, and i love the abstract print. it looks like such a simple summer staple, but you've made it so unique with the splashes of color and print mix.
Chic on the Cheap

Claire, you seriously look like a million bucks every single day!!
I wish I could be as stylish as you, but there are some days where I am just so drab and probably look like a bag lady.
You are totally rocking those shoes! :)

I have always loved black and white with yellow and this is another proof how cool it looks.
Those wedges are to die for. I have to get some if they are recent purchase.

the dress is so pretty and I love it with the yellow cardi. The way I dress has transformed since I started blogging too, I'm brave enough to wear what I want now.
Fun shoes! Perfect for a warm summer day! xo style, she wrote
Darling you look hot in that dress, what a great silhouette on you. Your shoes are gorgeous. Are they still available at target? Dawn Suitcase Vignettes
I think blogging has helped me tremendously. I now take risks. Not just normal risks but Princess Sparkles risks!
And for the most part I don't care what anybody else thinks, except the Man and he just rolls his eyes and says are you ready to go!
That is a very cute dress. But the pose is striking!
It's so true that our parenting style changes a bit with the addition of each child. I think the colorful shoes are genius with the black and white pattern.
incredible shoes!!

Speaking of change, your yellow cardi has sure been a great piece and taken the cardi out of the preppy category. Love the zebra earrings! Re kids, now you know why the eldest are almost always little adults and try to get their siblings to "follow the rules."
I love all the colors on your shoes.
cute outfit love the dress especially with the cardigan!
