Five dresses - light to dark

Filed under: Must Haves


We're at that strange time of the year when we're very likely to be sitting by the pool reading fashion magazines filled with the sophisticated clothes of the fall collections, those gorgeous knits in rich colors that make us wish for cooler weather - until we remember what a pain scraping ice off a car's windshield can be. Then we take another sip of ice tea and promise ourselves to enjoy what's left of the season and maybe treat ourselves to one of those summer treats - the simple, easy sundress, all the while promising ourselves that this fall will be the fall that we start dressing like An Adult.

We say this: Why not do it all? This week we brought you everything from the lightest of sundresses to a sophisticated Theory dress made for layering - because every season has its advantages, and we should celebrate them all.

wardrobe_remix Top Pic(k)s: Layer Up

wardrobe_remix is a Flickr community dedicated to exploring all the amazing everyday looks that people put together to express themselves. Real people, just like you and me. Inspired by the original (official!) weekly wardrobe_remix recap that the group's founder Tricia Royal does on her own blog, bits and bobbins, here are a few of my personal favorite recent additions to the group.

I noticed a lot of creative layering going on this week...everything from neutral palettes to crazy color combinations. I love this earthy outfit worn by the beautiful softspoken. In fact, I think I'm pretty much smitten with this lady's style, period. She's not afraid to mix it up and experiment with color and layers. You see more of her wonderfully quirky style on Flickr and at her blog.
