With a dress this bright, you gotta wear shades! And maybe a jacket to tone it down... This outfit, like a lot of my outfits, was something I wore to work. My career allows me to have some sartorial fun, but at the end of the day, I still need to look professional. So when I'm sporting my unique pieces, I like to help them "fit in" by pairing them with something classic. Sure, this dress is eye-scorchingly bright, but paired with pearls, black tights and a classic blazer, it looks a little more office-appropriate!
Updated March 2, 2012: It’s been snowing here in Boston (finally?), and I’ve been crazy busy, so our regularly scheduled outfit photos are delayed. But! There's a new post up on my Tumblr today on how to find the best hat for your face shape. Check it out!

ReplyDeleteYou do look fabulous. Is that dress from Guess?? lol thought ASOS but awesome color regardless.
ReplyDeleteArgh! I actually can't remember where it is from - I bought it way back when, before I started blogging and paying attention to where I got everything. There are no tags!!!
DeleteYou and I have clearly been channeling the same neon shades without even knowing it! I had to stop myself from buying a dress in the shade today (though I did get a bikini). Oops.
ReplyDeleteCute dress! Love the Neon color :)
