Picked this little number up at the thrift store recently. It looked a little bit sad on the rack and I usually steer clear of secondhand chiffon-y fabrics, as they always have some slight run or smudge that you never seem to notice until you take it out of the bag at home. Thankfully, I lucked out this time. Vertical stripes and twist front are pretty much a slam dunk when it comes to flattering silhouettes.
A.V. Max necklace c/o Max & Chloe
Ted Baker dress (similar styles here and here)
watch c/o Sperry
gold & sliced agate bracelet c/o Taryn Reed
Madewell, vintage, and nOir rings (pretty set here)
Ross Simons bracelet
Proenza Schouler heels (old, similar here)
purse from a random boutique
Ralph Lauren scarf (old, new ones here)
