Happy Friday! 

I am SO excited to share this look with you all! This look was a happy accident! A really odd, happy accident! 

It actually began back in the summer; I was looking for a white bubble dress to go with a jersey I had bought. I finally found what I was looking for on Amazon and ordered it. It said it would not arrive for a week or so, so I was surprised when it showed up sooner than expected. I was even more surprised when it black. 

On my Amazon account it showed that the white dress was still on expected to arrive at a future date, so I was super confused! Where did this dress come from? Did I accidently order two? Is the white one still coming? Should I keep this one just in case it was sent instead of the white one? 

Well, long story short, it turned out that they sent me the black one instead of the white. I never figured out why. It could have very well been user error. I guess Amazon was lagging when it said the white one was still on the way. It did update eventually.

​I never went back and got a white dress. I just kept the black -obv!  And I am so glad I did!

That story was the first reason why this look was a happy accident! 

The second reason is that this year for Fashion Week, I really wanted to push myself to put outfits together that challenged me. In the past I have just worn a nice dress and while I liked what I wore, not much creativity went into it. This year I really wanted to create LOOKS. I spent a good bit of time putting looks together! 

This one was one that I just tried on a whim. It began with my layering the striped shirt underneath the black dress. It looked decent! Better than I expected, but it was not particularly interesting. After several trial and error with different shoes and stockings combos, I decided I wanted to go for colorful stockings -just to see what it would look like. 

I LOVED it! 

After that the rest of the look seemed to fall into place. I added the belt to cinch the waist a bit, the beret was a perfect fit with the tights. I was going to carry my red Karl Lagerfeld bag, but after a bit of reflection, I decided the black/silver bag was a bit chicer with this look.

For Fashion Week, I didn't wear the blazer. It was just too hot. But I do think the blazer added a nice touch! 

I was so pleased with how it turned out! I was so proud of it! And now I want more than anything to plan a trip to Paris to wear this number! =D 

Thank you for reading! Have a great weekend ahead and please stay safe out there!
