Look of the Day: In A Garden. Barefoot Con-dressa

SO clearly we had a fun time soaking up the sun yesterday, eating cake and BBq. It was quite the fabulous picnic, thank you Mom! And I even busted out my ash Lotus wedges! Although my outfit would have looked better with tights, I knew I wanted to be barefoot when we were in the backyard, so I opted for leggings. And I did in fact spend more time barefoot then in my shoes, it was just too darn nice out! It is REALLY starting to feel like spring..finally!

This Alexander Wang dress loosely inspired my outfit. I love this dress but I didn't feel the $450 price tag justified enough times I could wear this dress. So instead I attempted to style a similar look.
I'm getting my hair one today! YAY!

  5. Love those wedges! I saw them on shopbop and was veryyy tempted, but it is still only hitting 35 degrees on a good day around here and I would probably hurt myself in those :/.

  8. Your post title had me cracking up! I love that AW dress, too, and I'm with you, I think the look can be easily replicated for less.

  12. I do love those wedges as well! Don't know that I could pull them off myself, but you rock them! I like your interpretation of the Alexander Wang dress.
    And in response to the Liberty of London comment you left on my blog, so disappointing/annoying that it sold out so quickly. I just checked out ebay and there's a few things on there...
    I wonder if it will be re-stocked in stores?

  13. I'm a big fan of denim shirts right now, but I haven't been able to find one that I want to buy. And I can totally understand putting fashion aside in favor of letting your bare feet soak up some sun. :)

  17. Those wedges are the business love, the business!! I was just looking at them the other day somewhere online and debating taking the plunge. Maybe I can get them on a wishlist or something for my birthday. I really like the color you selected them in though...food for thought.
