The Plaid Shirtdress aka Wearable PJs

I don't know about you guys, but comfort's hella important to me.  I don't care how good I look, if I'm in pain, I'm changing.  End of story.  You could gift me the most amazing designer heels, but if my feet are hurtin', I won't ever wear them out... butttt I will look at them and admire their beauty, ha.  

Now, this all leads me to today's OOTD.  Talk about comfy, this dress (courtesy of Velvet Heart) is seriously the softest thing you'll ever touch.  The piece itself is on the looser side, but that's why the tie belt's there, to help you shape your figure.  If you prefer a more relaxed silhouette, simply toss the belt aside.

For today's look, I styled the dress with a drape vest for extra warmth and threw on a silver statement necklace to up my accessory game.  To finish things off, I wore tall embellished boots courtesy of Hush Puppies.

Stitch Fix: Mad for Plaid

Alright guys, today's post is hella short because life's just kind of crazy right now - I'm prepping for my last doctoral comp, and I'm feeling mad underprepared so every day's a serious struggle.  Please send me positive vibes so I can get through it all, hopefully with passing marks, ha.

Anywho, for today's post, I decided to share a look that I styled for Stitch Fix in SF a while back (if you missed my trip recap, click here) - they sent each influencer from their tastemaker event a plaid shirt to style!  I paired mine with my favorite faux-leather skirt and tied it to highlight the small of my waist.  Since it's fall and everything, I threw on suede OTK boots to combat nippy weather and wore a drape vest on top. How would you guys wear this shirt?

Side bar:  If you're looking to up your style game, give Stitch Fix a try for reals.  Their clothing's quality, and they throw in cute outfit cards to help you style fashionable everyday looks for your convenience (!!!) Your package is tailored to your wants and needs so I can pretty much guarantee you'll love whatever fix you get.  You're welcome in advance.

Editorial: Dress to Impress

Partnering up with the incredible Jared Wolfe today on SS for a fun editorial.  I'm so beyond excited to share our first collab with you guys.  For today's post, I styled a classy going out look featuring a fabulous floral number courtesy of Stitch Fix.  

I styled the dress with a simple gold choker and carried a studded clutch to add a bit of edge.  To finish off my look, I threw on matching heels.
