What I Wore 13: Autumn Sundress

Wednesday, October 19, 2011

This is my new favorite outfit. 
It's perfect for those crisp, fall days that are still a little warm and sunny.


Dress: Urban Outfitters
Chinese Laundry Belt: La De Da
Nine West Boots: Macy's



I really like it when an outfit is composed of mostly older items and just one new thing. It makes me feel like I'm saving money on a brand new outfit, even though in reality I just spent money on a brand new dress.

I bought this belt several years ago. I wear it with dresses a lot, but when I was buying this new dress at Urban the other day, I compulsively bought a new belt to go with it. I got home and tried the dress with my old belt and realized that not only did I not need the new belt, I didn't even want the new belt. Which is sort of a big deal.

So I went back the next day and returned it. I didn't even buy anything else while I was there! It was a miracle. Oh, and on my first visit, I was all "Hey do you think this stain on the back right here will come out in the laundry? This dress is the only one left in my size," and the guy at the cash register was all "I don't know for sure but why don't I just go ahead and take off an additional 10% of the original price of this already discounted item?"

Thanks, bro!
