Hi lovelies! It’s Monday again! I had such a great week last week though, so I’m not even a little upset! AND I cooked minestrone soup last night for my lunches this week! There’s nothing like being prepared for a busy week. Anyway, I adore this combination because of the subtle flannel button-up detail on the sleeves and at the neckline in my favorite color of course… pink! Oh, and this dress only cost $12!!!
If you aren’t familiar with a fun trick for layering allow me to enlighten you… First of all, this dress is a body con dress which means that it’s SKIN TIGHT! Which means that usually you can see all of the buttons and creases that are inevitable when you’re layering, but the trick I’ve learned is to actually do three layers, the button-up, tank top, then the dress! (or sweater) but either way the tank top smoothes out all of the creases and allows you to layer with even the tightest of dresses! I wish I could take credit for this idea, but alas, my dear Pinterest board never ceases to amaze me.

(function() {
window.PinIt = window.PinIt || { loaded:false };
if (window.PinIt.loaded) return;
window.PinIt.loaded = true;
function async_load(){
var s = document.createElement(“script”);
s.type = “text/javascript”;
s.async = true;
if (window.location.protocol == “https:”)
s.src = “https://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js”;
else
s.src = “http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js”;
var x = document.getElementsByTagName(“script”)[0];
x.parentNode.insertBefore(s, x);
}
if (window.attachEvent)
window.attachEvent(“onload”, async_load);
else
window.addEventListener(“load”, async_load, false);
})();

(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[‘GoogleAnalyticsObject’]=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,’script’,’//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js’,’ga’);

    I've heard of this brilliant layering trick but I have yet to actually apply it myself. Looks like it works perfectly though! Love this blouse underneath your blouse.
