Stripes, Dots, and Lace

Thanks to all your comments on yesterday’s post, I learned that a lot of other workin’ girls wear pants to work on the regular, especially in the winter. I’m glad you all are showing your trousers some love, because lo and behold I am back to a dress today. What can I say? I’m a goddamn lady.

One thing I like about dresses and skirts is that they’re better for showing off a great shoe, which is exactly what I wanted to do for this outfit. I just got these Anne Klein cap-toe pumps after passing by them a few times at Macy’s. Some things are just meant to be together. Romeo and Juliet. Leslie and Ben from Parks and Rec. Me and these shoes. I think Shakespeare would cover the second two if he were alive today.

Thanks to the bright sun reflecting off the shoes, you can’t quite tell that they’re actually a really pale pink with rose gold toes and heels. Amazing, right? I’m sure I’ll wear them again soon and I’ll try to get some more true-to-life photos. Or you can just look at them here.

Polka Dots and Gossip

Who else feels an emptiness in their life since Gossip Girl ended? Yeah, me neither. I did love that show, but I think the high school years were better and bitchier. I haven’t seen all of the last season yet (I’ll wait until it’s on Netflix), so don’t tell me who Gossip Girl is or what color plaid Dan wears in the last scene or who ends up in jail or who dies or whose mother is actually her sister and steals her boyfriend by sabotaging her real mother’s career and paying off the dean of NYU.

Wait, what was I talking about? Oh right, I got this dress because it reminds me of something Blair would wear (if it were about 10 times more expensive). I think Blair is my spirit animal.
