Emerald Houndstooth

07.31.00 kroyo

Happy hump day! I hope that all of you are having a great week so far. Today's post combines two different trends that I am loving at the moment :)

Dress: Torn By Ronny Kobo (gifted)/ Boots: (old) ShoeDazzle

Bag: Phillip Lim For Target/ Necklace: Prima Donna (gifted)

Earrings: Prima Donna/ Sunglasses: Charlotte Russe

I ended up winning a contest with Covet Fashion at Lucky FABB so this dress was my prize. It's really cute but more importantly, so warm and cozy! I am all about long sleeve sweater dresses for this season. Houndstooth has definitely made a comeback and I love that this is not the typical white/black combo we often see. Fit and flare dresses are super girly and fun to wear. I love that this dress is appropriate for many different places like work, dinner, meetings and drinks! It literally felt like winter yesterday and it even snowed early in the morning. Guess I can officially say goodbye to that little bit of warmth I mentioned yesterday. Instead of doing pumps (I would have froze) I went with these old faithful boots that I've had for about 3 years now. I am actually surprised they are still in great condition. I don't think I will ever part with them. Emerald is one of the biggest color trends right now so I fell in love with this gorgeous necklace that ended up being a great addition to this look. It was one of the items that we got in our LF gift bags :) And the last element to this look was my mini satchel. Since I'm wearing high boots, I felt like a larger bag overpowered the outfit a little bit.

Stay warm lovies!!
