I always tend to wear this dress when I feel the need to 'dress up'... So I figured it was time to try dressing it down. I've already mixed it with red, but with heels and a cardigan, and my hair up... so it still felt very dressy. Then I realized, if I add my little brooch and my spectator shoes, that should really help casual-ize it! Ta-da! It worked. I love how something so small as a brooch helped to turn this dress into a more every-day piece.

Such a pretty dress! I love it with the red belt and brooch
ReplyDeleteIs that a "Mad Men" reference in the title or is the dress called the Joanie Dress? Either way, you look like Joan Harris in these photos, which is completely fabulous!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a mad men reference :D I was dying for a Joan-esque dress last year!
DeleteGorgeous dress, such a lovely color. The red accessories look fantastic with it, and your brooch is just the perfect touch.
