Blondie

Ah, freshly blonde. It's usually through blog photos that I realize how badly I need to get my hair done, and I let it go waaay too long this time - generally winter means I go a little darker, but there's something about being extra blonde during holiday time!

The lovely people at Boutique Onze sent me over this darling little dress last week! I absolutely love the military detail down the front & the shoulders - adds a little something special to an otherwise basic (and oh so comfy jersey) black dress! I didn't want to cover up the cute shoulder detail with a cardigan, so I opted for a long sleeve black tee underneath for warmth!

Keeping with the military theme, I decided to pair it with these olive green tights I picked up at Joe Fresh the other day! They had so many pretty colors, but green is a color I've never tried in tights before, so I picked up these along with a muted purple pair! I am completely tights-obsessed as of late! Can't get enough!

Hope you all had lovely weekends!






Dress: c/o Boutique Onze, Shirt: Smart Set, Tights: Joe Fresh, Shoes: Steve Madden, Bangles: Aldo

  1. The dress looks very chic on you! And your hair looks lovely! I thought it looked good before too ;) Thinking about this makes me want to go get some hilights and brighten my hair colour a little for the holidays! Great find on these tights from Joe Fresh! I picked up an olive pair earlier this fall from Americal Apparel, but we both know you definitely got the better deal!

  12. I think you pull the dress off quite well!
    I'm always afraid to wear stuff like this. I don't think I could wear it as well.

  21. This military dress is really cool! I like that its navy blue...all the military looks I've been seeing (and wearing on my blog) are hunter green. You accessorized well with just a few bangles...the outfit doesn't need anything else!
