First things first:
Isaac Mizrahi Dress for Target XXO Collection
It doesn’t matter which coast you’re on right now…it seems everyone is suffering through the “chilly in the mornin’ and hot enough to make you sweat afternoon” blues.
I find that the “transitional” periods of the year are challenging when it comes to choosing my daily wardrobe. However, I’m slowly realizing that although it’s challenging, it is actually pretty exciting!
I tasked myself with taking some of my favorite summer pieces and working them into my transition wardrobe. This unexpectedly resulted into some of my best looks recently!
This look was born out of trying desperately to wear this Isaac Mizrahi Target XXO dress as long as – weather permitting – possible. I LOVE, LOVE this dress. The pattern is just so bright and the dress is made of a beautiful silk fabric that looks far more riche than a Target find.
I’ll be honest…I’ve tagged the heck out of my Isaac Mizrahi Target XXO pieces on Instagram. I have dreams of being recognized as that Tiffany diamond in the rough, meeting the iconic Isaac and being welcomed into the fashion fold. Moving to NYC…pushing racks of beautifully designed, tailored pieces, lovingly stitched and artfully cut clothing..carefully covered in plastic across a busy SOHO street…
maybe this will be that post!
So….as far as this dress…I really examined the colors in the dress and it struck me that the colors were very fall….imagine a kaleidoscope of changing leaves as you take a leisurely drive through the mountains (especially North Georgia or Tennessee!)
So with Fall in mind, I grabbed a fantastic two-tone JCrew blazer (because let’s face it, JCrew makes a great blazer) ; grabbed a pair of brown leather Franco Sarto boots and a matching GAP belt…and it just worked!
I went from Summer party pretty to Fall business forum fellow!
XoXo!!
