Houndstooth and Taupe.
A Simple, almost Colorless Outfit featuring my Houndstooth Shirt-dress, Taupe Cardigan and Taupe OTK Boots (folded down) paired with some Monochrome Gray Tights. All I did was add a Hunter Green Statement Necklace. I wore this outfit to work one day but it is casual enough to do several mom duties in or run errands about town, or even to be worn on a weekend. What do you think? Do you own a Simple, B+W Patterned Shirt-dress?

ReplyDeleteI like how you've tied the belt for the dress on top of the cardigan, cute touch! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have any shirt dresses although I love the style, they just aren't very flattering on me. I like tunic dresses though, so easy to wear :)
I really like how this looks with the cardigan buttoned up over the shirt dress, and tan + black is a neutral favorite of mine!
ReplyDeleteYou are looking fabulous in houndstooth Ada!! Hope you're having a great weekend!

What a fun houndstooth number! I love the cute belt too!
ReplyDeleteThe houndstooth and taupe look SO good together! I love how you belted it on the outside with the dress belt, too!
ReplyDeleteI think the layering and mix of neutrals work really well here. Love the boots too!

I love a bit of houndstooth! I can't wear taupe though, those beigey colours don't look right on me, but with your fab dark colouring this looks great on you x
ReplyDeleteLove the houndstooth and taupe layers! The belt looks great on the outside of the sweater!

Great idea to layer the tie over the cardigan! I never would have thought of that and it's super cute!
