Style File: Ruffle bib dress and gold frame aviators

I'm still in a sea of boxes but now the location has changed. Why won't these boxes unpack themselves? I don't want a repeat of our last move where we had an unpacked box in the living room for an entire year.

The night before move day I attended an event with girlgetalife.  Two hours turned into 5 hours. I stayed out late and had a few glasses of wine. That was a bad move but I had so much fun.

I wore an outfit that I've posted before. I thought I was switching it up by wearing different shoes but it turns out I had the same shoes on in this post from April. My accessories are different though. I'm not wearing the chevron coat and thick tights. I like pieces I can wear year round.

I love the ruffle bib front. It's like I'm wearing a big statement necklace. I love those and will have to keep my eyes peeled while out shopping...and back to what I wore..

I am also wearing one of my latest thrifted finds -- aviator sunglasses. It's so weird to have so much of my sparse brow peeking out from the shades. I do love the gold frames though. The purple leather clutch was thrifted a while ago. I found it while packing. In fact, my entire outfit is put together based on what was not at the bottom of a box. I like!

I'm off to do more unpacking. Maybe.

Have a great weekend!

you are not alone, I am there with you (in my MJ voice) goodness I hate unpacking - the only thing I look forward to is looking thru the clothes and possibly making some outfit while I am at it.

love your dress - such a beautiful color

That dress is such a pretty color and I love that detail. The clutch is just perfect with it. Popping over from EBEW.

I love year-round pieces too-it makes remixing so much easier. And this bib front is speaking volumes to me right now!
