This past Saturday I headed to the RewardStyle NYFW party with Lydia! Since everyone would be dressed to the nines, I thought it was a great opportunity to wear my new $136 Jason Wu dress (get the story on how I got it "cheap" here)! The day was SUPER hot so we were pretty much melting, but the party was a lot of fun! I got to see a bunch of my blogger friends (and even made some new ones - hey Lizzy!)  We also got to visit with a ton of great brands like Piperlime, BlueFly, Kendra Scott, Topshop, Zinke, Ann Taylor and Lou & Grey.

I've decided to turn this week into monochromatic week, so here's a third one for you!  This dress was my sisters but I rescued it from her "get rid of" pile before it was donated. Sadly, I ripped the dress getting out of my car! I was pulling it down and one of the ruffles just ripped right off. Can't decide if I should bother fixing it or not.

Speaking of closet-cleanouts. It is probably time for me to do another one. But it's so hard getting rid of things, you form attachments to them and they feel like a piece of you. Then you have to remind yourself that they are just things and don't define you.

Another monochromatic look for you all to enjoy (or not enjoy.) This time with more of a Fall color scheme with my second favorite color: BURGUNDY! These pants are perfect for the transitional time between Summer and Fall because they're so light and breezy but also keep me warm if it gets chilly. It probably would have been smarter to finish this outfit off with flats, but I always feel too pajama-ish when I wear these with flats because of their fit.

It seems I am very in to monochromatic outfits this year, but it's so easy! That's one good thing about having a lot of certain colors.  This outfit was worn on a cooler Summer night hanging out with the family.  I seem to go through phases. For a while I shunned t-shirts because I felt they looked bad on me or too basic. But the past couple of years I've been all about them again! And Everlane makes the best! I buy the men's tees in XS, but now they have some looser-fit women's styles that I may try! At $15, how can you not?!

Would you believe me if I told you this is the first shirt dress I've ever owned? And my first real "little black dress" too. What can I say, I had to wait for the perfect one! And this Jason Wu dress definitely fits the bill! I scored it for $80 at Roundabout Resale  last month. I can definitely see this getting a LOT of wear over the next few years and beyond!
