^ I like the way the tote looks! It's a bit different being held than flat ...

Thank you I am very happy with it so far - I am carrying it pretty much every day ATM.

You layer so well!

 

[Betinapple]

^I am glad you think so! Summer in Denmark is not happening this year apparently, so layering is a must, not a fashion statement ATM.

 

[eizhowa]

^I have no idea what you mean... We have summer 10-11 months a year. Summer is 8 degrees and rain, right?

 

[Betinapple]

^seems like that is the case, this year I want sun, especially now that I just bought sandals.

I am going trough my clothes ATM, and this dress just keeps haunting me. I like it, but I dont really wear it. I dont think I wore it even once last year, and this year I havent worn it neither.

I think the last time I wore it, it was with a grey bouclé jacket and black ballet flats, but other than that, I have no clue what to wear with it. Any inputs?

Whatat turns out looks preppy/cute pretty fast and I guess that's not the look you're going for.
I would avoid wearing it with "classic" items for that reason.

What about a grey cardigan (oversized?) and boots to shake things up?

That is excactly the problem. It was perfect when I bought it and my style was very preppy/50s. Now, not so much. Great idea with the cardigan - I will def. try that out. thank u.

What about wearing it with a leather jacket?

 

[Betinapple]

^thank you, that is actually a great idea. Perhaps combined with my slip-ons as well.

An outfit from about a month ago

^ very cute!

 

[Betinapple]

^thank you! It is the only time I've worn that dress so far, though. Way too cold ATM. I am thinking I may have to try layering it with a lightweight knit, if I want to wear it.

And outfits from the first few days of taking my Willow out:

Global Funk jeans and Ca'shott slipons (ss14), Banana Republic shirt, Missoni headband, Mulberry bag, all SS15, Prada Sunnies (ss12).

Pretty much the same the next day, but with my Birkenstocks and a skirt instead of the jeans.

 

[eizhowa]

^Oh, I LOVE you shirt-dress! It looks really cool with the white sunnie as well.

 

[Betinapple]

^thank you! I am wearing it a lot. I may only have bought one thing on our London trip, but at least it was a good one
