dotty, belted

outfit blog, dashdotdotty, belted jacket, green, ochre, silk dress, boots, fall, business casual
[wearing]
blazer: thrifted (similar)
dress underneath: daryl k-189
scarf: forever21 (similar)
belt: thrifted (similar)
tights: simply vera
boots: loeffler randall (exactly)
headband: forever21 (exactly)


this combination of dress and scarf seemed familiar because i've totally done it before.  since it's been nine months since that post i am totally okay with the similarities here.  
and i've never tried this jacket belted before.  so that's something different!

[previously on] boy's blazer
i wear this blazer so much that it already has had a remix post!  i have a hard time buying blazers because i have the shoulders of a eight-year-old boy.  and so i thrift blazers made for eight-year-old boys.  my little brother finds this hilarious.  i'm going with genius.  and if he was eight i would steal all his blazers.  if only i had figured this out when i was twelve!

wearing this dress seems almost too easy.  it's super simple and super cozy.  therefore quite possibly perfect for my casual-ish and cold-ish work environment.

suze, of miss vinyl ahoy fame, asked me to participate in a blogger event for domestic violence awareness month. and i'm happy to use my little blog tube for this cause.  


1 in 3 families are affected by domestic violence. domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behaviors — physical, sexual, psychological, and economic coercion — used by one intimate partner against another (adult or adolescent) to gain, maintain, or regain power and control in the relationship. batterers use of a range of tactics to frighten, terrorize, manipulate, hurt, humiliate, blame, often injure, and sometimes kill a current or former intimate partner.
if you are in danger, please call 911, your local hotline, or (in the U.S.) the national domestic violence hotline: (800) 799-7233 or TTY (800) 787-3224.



while today was a dreadful day for any sort of outfit documentation, here's some ways i've worn my purple maxi dress in the past.
