“DO” the LOOK

Long Brown Dress:  To achieve this look, the dress or main layering item needs to be more simple and free flowing and still give off a chic vibe.  If you don’t have a dress that goes past your knees, try a sheath dress, it will still give off the same chic, comfy look

Beige Short Sleeve Jacket:  Whether you go for a long sleeve jacket, short sleeve jacket , cardigan or some other type of cover up, it needs to be structured.  A structured cover up balances out the more flowy, comfy look of the dress

Brown Booties:  Heeled booties both make the look dressed up, yet casual.  Other options might include open-toed strappy heels or sneakers.  If you go for classic pumps, it will make the look more dressy overall.

Brown Opaque Tights: Opaque colored tights with the same color of shoes (heels, boots or otherwise) help elongate the look of your legs, so it is a good option to match your tights to the color of your shoes.  Otherwise, a patterned tight could really add an extra chic element to this outfit.

Tri-metallic Bracelet:  Any accessory whether a bracelet, earrings or a belt should be simple with this ensemble to keep the balance that was established with a flowy dress and structured jacket.  A mix between chunky and dainty jewelry could maintain this balance and colored accessories could also add some spice.   I love metallic accessories, so a tri-metallic chunky bracelet was a great way for me to add something extra to the outfit.  Viola… simple, yet chic!
