I'm sailing! I'm sailing!

I have to say I am loving my outfit here. The dress is new and was a bit of an impulse buy, but I'm so happy I bought it. It's Kate Spade and was marked down to $190 from $535!!! Total steal!

Since it's freezing I had to winterize and added the cardigan (The Limited,$50 ) pink tights (Hue, $9) and a pair of Corso Como cage heels that I bought last spring for around $200 if I remember correctly.

I got a LOT of compliments on this outfit and felt stylish all day, and I know before this blog I never would have bought the dress (too dressy, when would I wear it?) or mixed it with such a bold color (would have done matchy-matchy accessories). To me this outfit represents progress, and that is a great thing.


A note on Corso Como shoes - they are well made and really comfortable. It's a new brand to me, but I now have 2 pairs due to the comfort factor. The heels in htis outfit are 4" but never felt like it.

A note on my budget - This dress put me over by $28 bucks, but I was under by $54 last month so it all evens out. No more shopping for me til March!
