In the Grotto: OOTW Look book

August 4, 2015 

Little Miss 1970

Having a 1970's moment! Please give me flowers to braid into my locks of love,man!

Even on this hot summer day, I couldn't resist waiting to feature one of my favorite dresses!  I purchased it several years ago and I will continue to wear it until I see the threads unraveling.  Even then I may transform the top of it into a shirt with my soon-to-be handy-dandy- sewing skills.  *I'm taking an introductory level fashion design class this fall and I'm mucho excited!*

As always, please scroll to the bottom of the post for store listings!

Now you may be thinking, "My gosh that dress is short! Put some pants on young lady!" and I agree! 
Without sacrificing the "dress look", I chose to put on some Daisy Duke-esq denim cut-offs underneath.

To me this style dress is a classic! The silhouette, the V-neckline with laced up leather cords is very on-trend this season.  I've seen many designers featuring this 70's neckline. From minimal to plunging, the lace-up v-neck has made a comeback! 


To complete my look I chose to feature my $10 sale hat from Urban Outfitters! As you may know, when they have sales, they.have. SALES!!  I really enjoy pairing navy and gray together. To me it's on the same level as pairing neutral tones together.  While I'm not 100% on board to the "navy" and "black" color-blocking trend, I do pay homage to it by adding accents of black.  In this outfit I chose a black fringe bag.

Last but never the least, my M.I.A goddess-esq gladiator heels that I purchased on sale for $9.98 yes you read that correctly!!  My go-to for shoe shopping is Shop 6pm. I highly recommend checking them out! They also sell designer clothing and other accessories.  Definitely worth a "bookmarker" on your browser missy! 

*P.S: The sandals have a camouflaged side zipper so it provides easy take-on and take-off functionality! 


I've featured these rings once, I'll feature them again because they add some spice and interest to any outfit!
