The one thing I love about the colder months are that we can layer. But the one thing I hate, is when it's been cold for so long and I'm ready to start breaking out my heels, tanks and shorts. So of course when I did my mini shopping spree at Charming Charlie last week, pretty much all the items I picked up where warmer weather items. But I wasn't going to let that stop me from wearing this amazing purple dress. And since I'm pretty tall, I was able to get away with wearing it as more of a tunic than a dress!
At first when I bought the dress, I was a little disappointed since it's such a flowy item. Flowy and me don't mix, it makes me look like I'm either 9 months pregnant or just fat. So I was able to find the perfect braided belt to match it (that way I can give myself a waist). Well the problem came that it was in the negatives and this is a tank top dress! Simple fix, I added my favorite go to blazer, my amazing white jeggings and some knee high boots and ta da.. problem solved! It felt great to add a little pop of color to my outfit and still managing to stay warm. Add in this gorgeous blue jewel tone bag and I'm all set. Now I can't wait for it to warm up so I can wear the dress with heels!

Such a cute look Beth! Is it bad I've never thought about wearing any of my dresses as tunics? What a brilliant idea! (:
