OOTD & Review: Convergent Jersey Dress

Cardigan: Luzula Cardigan |  Dress: Convergent Jersey Dress
Tights: Hue | Boots: Cherry Stem Boots

I love the Luzula Cardigan- an older piece that was one of my very earliest Anthropologie purchases.  It is light and full of wonderful colors and swirly patterns that make it a great topper for so many outfits.  I love the 3/4 length sleeves and the reinforced button placket; I wear this sweater to work a lot.

The Convergent Jersey Dress is a new arrival and I love it.  So soft and so comfortable- this jersey dress is a winner with its long sleeves and side ruching.  The back has no ruching and so is a little clingy for my taste, but with a cardigan or jacket, this isn't an issue.  I do with the sleeves were a tad shorter, but the length of the dress itself is perfect so I'll cope.

The Cherry Stem Boots are a favorite purchased last year and reviewed here.

OOTD & Review: Flowerfield Chemise and Dankov Cabled Blazer

Dress: Flowerfield Jersey Chemise | Cardigan: Dankov Cabled Blazer
Tights: Penneys (in Dublin) | Boots: Cherry Stem Boots
Coat: Ruffle Collar Wool Blend Coat (Old Navy) | Earrings: Jingled Hoops

I do so love these suede Cherry Stem Boots.  I missed them on sale at Anthro but was then lucky enough to find them on the EA Trademarket just in time for my birthday last year.  The pull and and fit great; I wish they were not quite so slouchy in the ankles but that is a quibble- they are extremely comfortable with a great lugged sole.

The Flowerfield Chemise is comfortable if a bit thin to wear out in the work without a slip or tights.  I love the pattern of the skirt though the light great top is not a great color on me.  I like the neckline and wish the sleeves were a bit shorter but I can make that change if necessary.  This definitely works as a dress but for me requires a layering piece.

The Dankov Cabled Blazer in beige fits the same as the red one I talked about here.  In photos it looks very bland- I would like to add a scarf and maybe wear my hair down next time to break up the light neutral of this piece.
