A Bailey Blue Dress

As you are easily able to see week after week, post after post, grey is my jam. I seriously have not come across a pair of grey denim or seen a grey sweater that I didn’t think needed to be added to my closet. It’s kind of ironic that I gravitate to this color so often because my disposition is usually quite the opposite. If my personality was assigned a color it would likely be a yellow or even a hot pink, yet when it comes time for me to get dressed it is those colors within the grey family that speak to my heart. So when a rep from Bailey Blue reached out and asked if I would be interested in a piece from their online boutique, I unsurprisingly picked out this cute little grey dress. Started by 3 sisters (LOVE the girl power!) in Los Angeles, Bailey Blue’s pieces are girly, chic, and super affordable. I love the carefree styles they create and currently have this high-low option, this basic tank dress, and this breezy slip dress in my cart.

Despite the heat wave {low 40s!} we experienced last week, it was NOT warm enough to wear this dress with my not-so-tan bare legs and the length is a bit on the short side sothese tights were the perfect addition. I actually very sincerely despise tights but Commando makes some that aren’t as awful as most–and that is a compliment! 🙂 Instead of styling look on the sweeter side, as I initially thought, I added a faux bomber jacket and my snake-print Petty booties to toughen up the flirty skirt detail and pretty pockets. After getting dressed I felt like something ‘else’ was missing and immediately knew that I needed a long, simple but statement-making necklace. It was fun to mix-up my typical oversized sweater & denim combos and make what is likely going to be a Spring/Summer staple dress for me into a temperature-appropriate option!
