Spring in the Air

This green, vintage dress has a hold on me.  By itself it looks like a nightgown, but I love the print and the buttons.  I added an avocado-colored corduroy Talbots skirt.  The time for wearing corduroy is coming to an end, so I figured I'd better squeeze it in while I can.
 

Dress, thrifted; skirt, thrifted; cami, thrifted; tights, Target; boots, Rack Room Shoes; necklace, Charming Charlie; earrings, Claire's.
 

This skirt has the unfortunate tendency to bunch around the tummy, making my stomach look bigger than it actually is.  I just rescued the skirt from my "clothes that are too small box."  Maybe by the time it's corduroy season again it will fit a little better.
 

I added a beaded, bib-style necklace from Charming Charlie, and styled my hair in a side braid.  I've been liking side braids and low, side pony tails the past few weeks.  It must be because I'm a child of the '80s/ early '90s.
 

This dress certainly needs something to add structure to its shape, though I'm not sure the skirt was it. I'll be mixing more cool-weather pieces into my challenge in the coming weeks because (contrary to what I've heard from the Starks) spring is coming.  I need to wear my jackets, suede, corduroy, and leather quickly before it is too warm.
