TS: I'm loving the outfit as shown in #3 paired with the jacket and bag. No jewelry needed , the accessories 'shine'!

What a gorgeous dress amd I love that you wear it to work:). Tnis is a clever pairing of pieces Shannon. I would never think to wear the striped jacket with a lace dress but it looks beautiful. The shoes look pretty good too. #3 is just stunning with everything working so well together. Bet you feel fab today.

I love that dress on you! With the shoes, it is perfect. I also think it looks great with the jacket. The bag is great but sort of distracting me from dress and shoes, both of which I love. Did I mention that?

Great final version! I love the pumps and dress alone but the light blazer and bright bag really bring this outfit into spring perfectly.

Thanks Sona, Deborah, Meredith, Alicat, Shevia, Manidipa, Suz, and Rita!
Deborah/Meredith - this dress is pretty "dressy" for work but pairing it with a more casual topper (this striped knit jacket, denim jacket, etc.) can bring it down enough for work wear. I'm glad you think I got it right!

What an inspired combination! Love the lace dress and of course the cobalt pumps. #1/2 looks great for an evening out, but I love how everything pulls together in #3! The jacket and bag do dress it down just enough for work. Now you have me wondering if I can somehow make my B44 black lace dress work appropriate.

Stunning. I'm with Angie on wanting that dress! I love how you styled it - hope those shoes go the distance for you today.

Beyond love! If this outfit were a celeb, I'd be the crazy stalker following it about and sending it desperate letters. The striped jacket and pop of green make the dress feel so springy, yet I also know it works great in the cooler months. Pretty amazing feat.

I think this looks great! I never would have considered pairing a lace dress with a striped blazer, but it really works. And that green purse just sets the outfit on fire.
You are such a bold experimenter....and it pays off!
(note to self to experiment more.....:)

Perfectly pretty. What a gorgeous dress & the new pumps are perfect with it.

Transcona Shannon replied 11 years ago
I'm so pleased you all think the striped knit jacket works with the dress! With a more casual topper this dress can see more wear which makes me happy because it's one of my favourite pieces!
Wow Angie - thank you so much. You're making me blush...
Natalie - what if you popped a denim jacket and more casual sandals on with your black lace dress? That might work to bring down the dressiness factor.
Celia - you're so sweet!
Zapotee - I think you just coined a new fashion phrase..."blazerize"! Love it.
Thanks Jonesy, Jeanne, Ginny, Nancylee and Kiwi!
Rae - lol "if this outfit were a celeb"....I'm starting to really love and appreciate items that can transition into different seasons.

OMG, the dress! That color is magic on you. It reminds me of my orange crochet dress from Anthro with that trim showing at the bottom.

Lace, stripes, and brights are such a FAB combination here, TS!! This is so fun and feminine! Luv it!

Love that a dressy dress got to come out on a "normal" day. And if you are invited out to cocktails, just de-blazerize and you are ready. Loving that new term and wil be integrating into my wardrobe vocabulary!
Very fun and stunning outfit - really making items versatile and looking oh so fantastic in the execution.
