outfit du jour: one for another

I am just not having any luck taking pictures lately. I was so close to just skipping today's post...but I guess I won't, even though this picture is *bad.* Anyway, yesterday I wore this grey and black maxi dress. I wanted to belt it, so I ended up adding the turqoise belt. Then for some reason, I wanted to wear red shoes with it. It just felt like little bits of red and turquoise worked together. I don't know...

On a positive note, tomorrow is Thursdays are for Thrifters! Looking forward to seeing everybody's finds and outfits.




Dress: Old Navy, $20., Lace Shrug: Wet Seal, apx. $15. Crocheted Headband: DIY, Gift.

Turquoise Ring: F21, $5.

    There are my favorite red shoes, love them! I like red and aqua together too, and I like your maxi dress very much.

    LOVE that maxi! I've been hunting for a striped maxi for the last few months, and had zero luck. That dress is fantastic. I adore it. Those shoes. Bright pink or red, so cute!
    I swear, your style never fails to impress. :)

    Not sure why you think this photo is so 'bad' I think your dress is pretty cute! Those shoes are killer. I think red + turquoise absolutely go together.

    Your photo looks like one from the 70's. The color photos from that time seem to have darkened some. So, hey a cool 70's vibe!!
    That is the coolest elephant ring. Love the shoes and the maxi!

    Great outfit, I want to call it hippie chic. I think your picture turned out fine; I know how hard it is trying to take them on your own. I either hate how I look or can't get all of myself in the frame. It's quite hilarious.
