Lace + Plaid = Favorites. For real.
have you entered my giveaway for the chevron infinity scarf from Ooh Baby designs yet? you should! [Lace Dress (worn as a skirt): Tulle (via Fred Flare) | Chambray: JCrew | Plaid Shirt: Madewell | Jacket: LOFT | Pearls: random | Bracelet: JCrew (warehouse sale) | Riding Boots: old]
If I’m being totally honest with you – I’m going to say that this is probably my new favorite outfit ever. I know it’s a little similar to an outfit I wore back in September, but for real. I love this outfit. It is so me. The layering, the lace, the pearls, the boots, the denim jacket – it screams ME.
It was one of those outfits that I felt like a rockstar in all day. I walked with a little bit of extra confidence.
EVERY woman needs that outfit. Shoot, every MAN needs that outfit. You know the one I’m referring to. The one that you literally put on, and immediately you feel like a superstar. Like you can conquer the world. Like nobody can hold you down. Oh no. You got to keep on moving.
Quick! Name that song!
I’m rambling. What’s gotten into me today? I don’t even know, yo.
What I DO know is I love this outfit. But I already said that.
Okay, no more rambling.
Happy Wednesday!

I can see why it’s your new favorite outfit – I love it too! I especially like the contrast between the plaid and the lace.

This is a great oufit! I love layering tops over a dress – before blogging I never would have thought of that. The lace is awesome and so are the POCKETS!! 😀

This outfit is just so well-styled I can’t even stand it! I LOVE double buttondowns and people always look at me like I’m cray when I wear it or suggest it to clients. And I’m super diggin’ the skinny belt under the knotted shirts… a total 10, Miss Molly!!! ~Sarah

So fun! I love how you are able to mix so many different textures and patterns. And your necklace reminded me of your pearl necklace video…I’m LOL’ing about it breaking all over again. 🙂
thank you so much, mandy! hahahahahaha that video will never let me down 🙂
yes yes yes! you look so pretty! 🙂 love this look.
thank you so much, katie! 🙂
I have a long lace skirt and I do love it. I have never thought about pairing it with a plaid skirt and well the boots (as we have already established it wouldn’t be in my closet if it didn’t go with them). I’m going to have to find a cute plaid shirt now 🙂 Love the look. It is always good to feel a little bit like a rockstar. Thank you for sharing.
hahhaha truth!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 mine is actually a dress i wore as a skirt – but either would work!! thank you so much, shawn!
Lace is girly and plaid is country- the combo is great!
thank you so much, rachel!!!!! 🙂
Oh friend, this is my new favorite outfit of yours too!!! Plaid and lace…. Um yes please!!!!!
Brooke @ what2wear
