I could absolutely make a uniform out of black and white. It's just so elegant and clean! This is a fun outfit to wear. It really brings me back to my aesthetic, elegant, not too much going on and definitely feminine.
Actually, this dress is sleeveless, but it was a bit nippy on Sunday morning so I threw on a sweater. Sweet Baby (ie... my husband)said that he actually liked it better without the sweater. So I just kind of played around with it and started to tie it. Then, I got the idea to just cross it over and tuck it into the belt. I do love inspired ideas. Also, when I got this dress, it had alot of beading on the bodice. All that beading really isn't me, so I seamripped it out and it's poifect now!

Serene ~ I love your shoes - amazing you got them for $5! And that dress looks wonderful on you. What a great idea about removing the beading. I love how you alter items to make it work for you. So smart! ~ Susan
