Mellow Yellow

June 6, 2012

TOP: H&M. DRESS: H&M. CLUTCH: Marc Jacobs Eugenie Clutch. SHOES: Jimmy Choo. WATCH: Michael Kors MK5160. RING: Kate Spade Love Notes Bow Ring. NECKLACE: Forever 21. SUNGLASSES: Chanel.

 

I really love the soft yellow shade of this dress.  It’s also sleeveless, which lends itself well to layering.  I’m always freezing cold in my office, so I need to cover my arms to stay warm every day, even in the summer.  Does your office feel like an icebox in the summer also?

      Thanks Kate! Discovering tying button down shirts over dresses really expanded my wardrobe options!

    H&M has the most cutest checked blouses ever. I don’t know where to start, but you look perfect from head to toe Jenny :-) . Great idea to give that classic dress a pop of coolness with that shirt. Love that mix of elegance and coolness. Those nude heels are such a statement, I want them as well :-) . Hmm I don’t know what’s worst but my company doesnt have an AC and it can be obnoxious hot. But I hear ya….

    Love the wavy lines of the shoes and the quilting on the purse! Texture and detials! Yes, the office is an icebox year round, that’s why I have a work blazer that I leave on my chair.
