OOTD: One Spring Day

I am loving the cool spring weather at the moment. The weather is no longer painfully cold, so my bare legs are out for as long as possible. How are you enjoying spring? Has spring sprung where you are at?

 

 

I love wearing dresses in the spring/summer months, I guess that is due to the fact that I have been stuck in heavy coats, jeans and tights all through winter. I find dresses comfortable and easy to style.

Take this black dress I have on for example; all I had to do was to throw on a few accessories and I was good to go. That is the beauty of a little black dress, it never goes out of style, and it is dead easy to dress up.

 

 

This black embroidery smock dress is a new wardrobe addition; I got it some few weeks ago. I love the floral embroidery detail a lot. It is a perfect piece, and it is great for transitioning from winter to spring (just pop on a blazer and a pair of tights if you need one), and from day-to-night (with a change of accessories).

 

 

“I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.” -Michael Kors.

I saw this quote online some days ago and it hit the nail on the head, with regards to the major role accessories play in an overall look. I think accessories are very important; they determine how good or bad an outfit would turn out, so I like to pay my accessories special attention, even more than my pieces.

  1. I am looking forward to getting out of the heavy winter clothes we have all been bundled up in, and this black dress looks like such a great spring outfit. I love the floral embroidery on the sleeves! Loving those boots as well x

  2. Spring can’t come quick enough for me at the minute. It’s 13 degrees today and I’m a tad hot in my jumper. I really want to start styling dresses with boots. It looks so easy to wear and cool too x

  3. really love your dress and your boots are fab too. Still a bit cold here so I wont be getting my legs out just yet

  4. You look fantastic in that dress! I’m looking forward to Spring, it’s my favourite season! And I definitely need some new Spring clothes!:)

  5. Yes, leg season is here! (But now that means we all have to start shaving again. Boo!) You look super glam. X

  6. Oh my gosh, this dress is absolutely stunning! The embroidery is just gorgeous. I’m gonna have to see if this is still in stock, I really do adore it! 😀

  7. I’m so jealous it’s warm enough where you are to pull off such a cute dress. It’s freezing here right now!

  8. I’m not really a dress person but that looks great on you. I love Spring too, it’s my favourite season, probably because I can still wear my jeans and not look weird like I might do in summer!

  9. It’s essential to have a little black dress and you’ve styled it well. I love the embroidered jacket.

  10. What a beautiful dress. Very appropriate for the season. I love this black dress so much, the sleeve details are unique. Lovely.
