Twice is Nice









Yeah, so, I'm well aware I just wore AND posted about this faux fur beauty. It's nice though, isn't it? Yes. Yes it is. And, as I'm sure you can tell, I'm loving on long dresses and skirts this season. I think a lot of people think they can't wear a long hem because they aren't tall enough...but I'm a few inches away from midget status, and I think the length actually makes me look taller.

I haven't bought anything (except camera gear and gasoline) in a couple of weeks. It's really weird, me being a shopaholic and all. Unfortunately, I had my head up my ass and missed out on the MAC Disney Villain collection, and now all the good stuff seems to be sold out. Oh well. I don't really need any more nail polish...

Dress: Free People
Faux fur vest: Old Navy
Wedges: Jeffrey Campbell

  1. I love this outfit! I should really try a maxi dress/skirt XD

    And I wish I was like you and hadn't bought stuff...I'm such a shopaholic XD

  2. That is a great vest! Super cute outfit!! And I still just love those wedges! The dress definitely seems to add height, but honestly, I love how pictures without any reference to scale can be deceiving about height. ;) I guess congratulations on the accidental lack of shopping! :)

  4. Good to know that us shorties can wear long dresses/skirts, because I thought they'd make me look shorter too! I laughed out loud at your "few inches away from midget status" line-- my uncle texted me the other day to ask if 4'11'' was considered a little person, not realizing that I'm exactly 4'11'' haha! Epic! ;)

    Also, don't worry, I still live with my mom too! Why fix what ain't broken, eh?! ;)

  9. Yup, totally amazing outfit - nice touch with the wedges, they make the maxi look really modern and directional. I know I must have admired the gilet before, I'm still on the lookout for one!

  11. Dress looks good on you! :)
    I just read somewhere that with a long dress/ skirt you create a perfect silhouette, streamline. So, true - there are no distractions just perfect silhouette created by dress.

  14. You are so right about the dress - it does make you look so tall and gives a lovely silhouette. The vest with your blonde hair looks great

  26. you DO look incredibly tall in this outfit. i'm a big fan of maxi dresses and skirts too and i'm only 5 feet 2 inches tall. also, your makeup always looks amazing. lips and eyes in these shots are impeccable.

  27. The Jeffrey Campbell's are gorgeous. Really, stunning. I always am more inclined to wear maxi dresses in the summer, for some reason. But, clearly, I'm missing out.
