Here in the South we have experienced a taste of all four seasons in the span of one week. While temps easily hit the 70s for a week straight in February, I am old school and subscribe to the fashion theory of dressing for the season and not the weather. I will not be caught dead in sandals before the end of April and pass not one morsel of judgement on those who do. As I am truly unbothered about what you choose to put on your body.
So you can imagine my fashion theory has left me a little perplexed on how to dress for this crazy, sporadic weather. I figure you can never go wrong in Spring with layering your clothing, rocking a little denim and throwing on your favorite flats.
Oh, and please don’t forget your accessories. They can easily pop a plain outfit.
I customized this denim dress on Eshakti, by selecting the length, neckline, and sleeve length. Once I received it, I realized my Summer body had not completely arrived and it was a little snug buttoned up, so I opted to wear it as a duster.
….or a cloak, as my son calls it.
It’s weighty enough to keep me warm on cool mornings and evenings but light enough to act as a layer for warmer days.
Did I mention I’m tired. Between dance and track four times a week, I’m just trying to look like somebody with minimal effort. I’ve worn a variation of this outfit more than I care to admit but it’s easy and makes me look a little put together.
