I've worn this outfit so many times before. I've probably even blogged it. But alas, I love it, and it's what I wore this week. I know I sing the praises of this dress all the time, but seriously. It's amazing. I just wish I could find more like it.
Speaking of finding clothes, I've been trying to find some tunics to add to my nanny wardrobe. I'm thinking tunics and leggings would be a great alternative to tee shirts and jeans, while still being comfortable and easy to wash. I'm looking for ones that are modest (read: not too low in the front), cheap, and loosely cut. Sadly, most tunics I've found are more of a body con style, which I don't really care for or feel comfortable in. I'm looking for something like this. Or this. Something with a bit of structure at the waist or bust. Long sleeved, preferably. Maybe I should just shorten some dresses? If you have a favorite, affordable tunic, let me know. :-)
That really is a great dress, very versatile.
ReplyDeleteI like the leggings and tunic look too, but sometimes like to go for a shirt dress in denim which looks good with boots.
I was initially hesitant to wear leggings because I wore them a lot in the early nineties in my late teens/early twenties. Back in those days leggings seemed to go baggy at the knees after half an hours wear. Fortunately leggings have come a long way and are a welcome addition to my wardrobe :)
If you already have dresses, what's wrong with wearing them with leggings? Or are they too... dressy? I think some dress like this (which is super cute, by the way) would look good with a cardigan and leggings too.
ReplyDeleteThat's kind how I feel...just too..dressy. I'm thinking about it though, since I already have dresses. :-)
