This week has immensely been a dose of breaking a sweat and getting back into the routine of life. Most everyone have likely gone back to the reality of “work mode,” although I had an extra week to slowly get up to speed, yet I still felt somewhat overwhelmed. But, such is life and all good holidays must come to an end, and there is joy even amidst industrious days.
I had a semi-glamourous dress that I’ve only been able to wear once for reasons unknown … that or the fact that it’s really a bit shorter than I wanted, especially with each year that passes. Sitting in ideal posture, and even being in an upstanding position was apparent enough that I would need something underneath for layering these splendid threads of sheen. The dress was also a gift so I had been rather selective in its wearing moments.
But, my modern storage container (in its steamer trunk-ish style), came to the rescue! After rummaging through playful pieces alike I found one of my favourite lace underskirts, a handy short petticoat that has lended itself very useful in style times such as these!
The ocassion: absolutely nothing extravagant, merely a dinner, one of our pre-new year festivities as a send-off for loved ones. I threw on my denim jacket to make the outfit more casual, otherwise it could have been slightly a bit much for a sushi dinner given the silk-satin luster and its overall “frilly” attributes. But, you know … of course I was going to wear it regardless!
Wishing you a very happy weekend!

Thank you the clutch is a DIY that I designed and made. 🙂
Thanks Dvora! 🙂 Hope all is well.
I'm a true fan of a great petticoat, especially when lace is involved. 🙂
Thanks! Yeah, I'm happy with the unusual, but ME combo, lol. I think toning down this dressy outfit worked for the occasion.
Thank you! 🙂
sweet photos and a beautiful smile! 🙂

Love your pics!! I am sure you'll be loved by many on world's 1st eyewear styling community —— plus.firmoo.com, could we have the honor to see you there?
I love when I can find ways to wear special pieces more frequently—- they have a way of just making me feel good. The petticoat coming out the bottom is such a pretty detail!
It looks great underneath it! Way to go for making it work! I've been going through what you've been going through. It's truly been hard getting back into the swing of things. Hang in there.

I hope you are having a marvelous start to the new year! Love that tulle/lace skirt made casual by denim. I remember one of the first photos I put on my blog was exactly a ballerina tulle skirt with my cropped denim on top!
I like the femininity details in your outfit. I also like how the denim jacket and shoes gives the outfit a different look. Hope you've been having a great time at work thus far!
