Ugh, cliche, Date Night {She Wore What}

When I had an opportunity the other day to get some outfit photos this is one I absolutely HAD to capture. Mostly because I was so happy with how it went when I wore it, but mostly to show you the transition of this dress from sunny Autumn days to Winter layering. You know me, I love a comfortable outfit. The layering makes this perfect for dinner or a movie. And it even works for a walk along a boardwalk with a hot coffee in hand. Naaaaw, romantical.

To replicate this look take your favourite summer dress. I’d grab one with sleeves, but it’s not essential. Add boots, leggings, a scarf and a jacket. Hey presto, multi-seasonal wardrobe. I find that the less opaque the leggings the less it looks work-weary. Do you know what I mean? If you add sheer tights it can be a bit like you’re off to the office I think. But that could just be me. And that’s my tip. That and keep adding layers until you’re warm, which around here, isn’t that many. Haha.

  8. Darn I wanted to see the boots close up. (Photo insert, just a suggestion). I love layering, in Geelong it’s essential! I add thick purple stocking to an outfit to dress it down. However I also wear those to work LOL. Looks great. Love the comparision link to the different seasons. =)

      I’ll see what I can do, re: the insert. I never seem to get close up enough photos.

      Thanks lovely. :)
