Yes, Another Shirtdress Outfit - From the Archives

Dress Banana Republic, boots Franco Sarto (Marshalls), hat Urban Outfitters, bag Ebay I came across today these pictures in my email today and decided to post them on the blog. The reason being that I am wearing here the same dress as I did in the last two posts so I figured, three is the charm. Since I did already two posts in the same dress, why not do the third one too, right? It also gives one more suggestion on how to wear the shirtdress. Granted this was taken back in September when the weather still felt like summer and I could go bare legged and with exposed shoulder. It's not that warm anymore here in Canada (maybe Vancouver) but I am sure those of you lucky enough to live in warmer climates, can still appreciate this outfit.  This was a no-makeup, casual Sunday brunch with a friend in a very cute little spot Wish near Yorkville.

Trees are changing their colours and I am starting to dread waking up in the morning. Mornings are cold and dark. Luckily weather has been beautiful this fall. I'm off to Chicago this coming weekend and luckily the weather will serve us right. You know how much I love fall clothing and layering, right? I said that one too many times :). I absolutely love fall colours: mustard yellow, burgundy, all of them. Though today's outfit is not really in fall colour, it's still fall appropriate. One staple that everyone should have in their closet is a shirt dress. You can wear it casually on the weekend or dress it up for the office. This soft blue dress is from Banana Republic. I scored it while on sale (wohoo!). It is so versatile that you can wear it many different ways. For today's post, I cinched it at the wai
