Sequins and Sea Breezes: Leather + Leopard

Leather + Leopard

1/20/2015

 
Happy Tuesday loves! I posted about this gorgeous BB Dakota leather shift dress a few Friday Favorites ago and I'm so happy I decided to get it. I've been on the hunt for a good leather shift dress for awhile now and just haven't found one I really liked so when I saw this one it was exactly what I was looking for but I was hesitant to buy it online without trying it on. Since I already own a few BB Dakota things I figured why not just go for it and hope for the best?


As you can tell, I kept it and couldn't wait to share it with you guys! I've already envisioned multiple ways to style this dress so I'm just warning you now, this won't be the last time you see this dress! Since it's still a bit chilly out (mainly just because it was breezy) I decided to throw on one of my favorite scarves with this dress to keep warm when the breeze kicked up. I kept it simple with everything else to try to keep the look more on the casual side instead of a night out look. Of course I threw on my favorite black strappy sandals. I pretty much live in these shoes, they are so comfortable!

    I'm a huge BB Dakota fan- super cute stuff, great quality, and at an awesome price point.
    This leather dress is incredible on you! The scarf was a nice touch- keep the chill at bay while still showing a little skin. :)

    Girl I'm so glad you got that dress - it looks phenomenal on you!! I may have to scoop it up..although I did a closet overhaul the other day and I think I have no fewer than 23 black shift-type dresses. Eh, what's one more, right? =)
