I'm not going to lie: taking these pictures in crazy wind conditions was not ideal. But without a doubt, this outfit was just too cute to go without documenting! Joanie Clothing has been right on the money with their new 60's/70's inspired styles and this Poesy dress is no exception. The figure flattering style, warm colors, and cute dogtooth print is perfect for this "winter but so acting like spring" weather.
Shoes- Chelsea Crew (on sale!)
Earrings- c/o Vinca USA
Lipstick- c/o Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick in Veronica
The Poesy dress is made from a light poly fabric and features a fun ruffled neckline, short sleeves, a-line skirt, matching navy belt, and a back zippered closure. I ordered my usual UK8 and I felt like the arms were a little tight (although my arms tend to be larger than a normal UK8). Still wearable as is, but if you happen to be between sizes I'd definitely recommend sizing up. I paired them with my new peach earrings from Vinca USA and I think it really polished off my fun retro look. While I'm usually wearing 40's and 50's inspired looks, I'm so ready to take on some different styles and silhouettes this year!
Black Panther is officially out today and I can't even contain my excitement! I'm going to have to wait until tomorrow to see it (that's when I have a babysitter) but I'm really looking forward to it. As an intersectional feminist, I'm so proud to see a big-budget movie with an almost all black cast (many of them strong women characters), a black director, and a black costume designer. I feel like it's really important to support this movie but it also helps that it is a massive hit among critics. Here's to hoping it breaks all the records this weekend! Are you going to see Black Panther? Let me know in the comments below!

It is already sold out for the entire weekend here, I guess, which is awesome for the movie but a bummer because we didn't know if we'd have a sitter and didn't get tickets in time. I'm so excited for Black Panther!
ReplyDeleteWhile that's amazing, I totally understand your disappointment. We had to go to a movie theater out of town to get tickets... And we bought them over a week ago!
DeleteLove those little peach earrings! If only my ears were still pierced... This is a really fun look for you too (HI LEGS!).
ReplyDeleteI'm still amazed that you don't have your ears pierced! I got mine done when I was like 5 months old lol, thanks Mom.
