Winning in this Who What Wear Dress

Where my Target lovers at? …um, everywhere! Seriously, who doesn’t love or have a love/hate relationship with Target?! It’s just too good; I love it but my wallet never enjoys the trips to my beloved one stopper. Two pieces from this look were purchased at Tar-jai (just realized I have no idea how to spell the favorite fancier way of pronouncing it) on completely “non-fashion-related” runs. My dress, the definition of effortlessly pulled together, was under $40. I loved the menswear inspired touches and the color was on cue for my Fall feels at the time of purchase. It’s a classic piece in a soft, silky blend fabric that will last seasons to come. I also scored these oh-so-comfy peep toe booties for a steal, also under $40! (more about them in a later post)

I decided to walk the feminine-masculine line in this look by playing with contrasting details; a leather jacket on top and a lace slip peaking from beneath. The tailored appearance of a button down shirt leading to the flowy-ness of a midi dress silhouette. A structured, geometric like, hard bag in a soft, lady like hue. The perfect balance.

Speaking of balance… if you follow me on Instagram then you probably noticed that I went on a brief vacation to Los Angeles last week.  I’ll be trying to balance my work/life/writing time more efficiently to get you guys a complete travel guide including a recap of a few thrift shops I rummaged through while there.
