Neon + Tweed

A slight variation of the last time I wore this dress, but if it's not broken, right?

The first day of spring has finally arrived, on the tails of another snowstorm (of course) and with no promises that these freezing temps are behind us.  I am so ready for warm weather, so much so that 57° would probably feel like summer to me.

Love the neon with the dress!! That's right - if it ain't broken don't fix it. I'd be happy if the temp at least got up higher than 45. I love your new background!

Oooh, I remember this combination! I loved it so, I did. And I do adore seeing it again. I agree--if it works, then why bother changing it? Especially when it's so bold! It's cute with these sheer tights, too.

I hope the warm air greets you soon!

The shoes are awesome! I really like them paired with the dress and tights. It gives the outfit a little bit of a mod 60s vibe. Hopefully spring will be here soon. We woke up to 20 degrees and high winds!

I think I'm going to have to steal this idea. My sister bough this for me for christmas and I've only worn it once because I have not figured out a way to have it not make me look like a potato. How does it fit you so well!

Noooooooo doubt! We've had several nice days, but we also have snow on the horizon. Ugh. I love the neon and grey. Those tights are really cute too!

This combination is incredible!

Cee said...

I totally agree - if it's not broken, don't fix it. This dress is fabulous; I love the front zip detail. And it practically cries out to be paired with neon, your yellow blouse is the perfect match :)
xox,

I never thought of pairing them, but neon and tweed look so great together. I'm hopeful that spring temperatures will be here before we know it!

Mica said...

Really like the neon and tweed together, lovely layering with the shirt and dress too :)

57? Hell, I'd take 47. I might even go out in bare legs for it.

Well, probably not. Still cold. But really, I just... snow on Monday again. Tired of it.

Jessica said...

...and now I'm kicking myself for not buying that dress. I really love it here.

Katie Q. said...

Polka dotted tights! Epp, those are cute! I love polka dotted tights but every pair that I've found so far have been really cheap and they rip as soon as I put them on. :P

And, still so jealous that you thrifted a Equipment shirt.

Tashia said...

I love the pop of neon in this outfit. The swiss dot tights are so cute with the tweed.

Jill said...

I have that dress and have been looking for a way to wear my lime green blouse...i think i may have found a way:)
