Oh, Behave! {Sweater Dress + Chanel Pin}

{Zara Sweater Dress, Vintage Chanel Pin via eBay, Stuart Weitzman Heels, Cambridge Satchel Tote}

They say the better you dress, the worse you can behave. I tend to agree…

Lately it seems like Zara is on a mission to take all my money. This marled sweater dress brings me so much joy, and I’m like 95% certain I’m going to go back for the all-black version as well… make that 100%. I just made up my mind as I was typing that last sentence! This dress also begged to be paired with my vintage Chanel pin, so who was I to say no? I wore this outfit to a private tour of Christie’s auction house with a women’s professional group I belong to and felt like a million bucks.

How to Wear Gingham {Without Looking Like a Picnic Table}

{Tommy Hilfiger Gingham Dress (similar), Forever 21 Straw Boater Hat (similar), J. Crew Gingham Sandals (extra 30% off with code WEEKENDSALE)}

Ok, ok… so maybe I do look like a picnic table. I’m totally ok with that.

If you follow me on Instagram (which you should, because I post pretty pictures… and I don’t bite), then you’ll remember this dress from my live story in the Macy’s fitting room. I scored it for a whopping $28 – which is pretty impressive if I do say so myself. I enjoy the fact that it’s office-friendly, but still keeps me cool during these hot, sticky NYC summers. I know that most of my blogging brethren are on to fall fashion at this point, but I’m still happily in a summer state of mind. And as long as the temps keep hovering in the 80s and 90s, then I’ll keep on dressing accordingly. My sweaters and tights are still safely tucked away, and I’m in no hurry to unpack them for now. So bring on the gingham dresses – and matching sandals – and party on!
