GINGHAM TOP AND MIDI SKIRT

The Steele Maiden: Newbury Street, Boston wearing French Connection Midi Skirt and Restricted SandalsOne of the things I love about traveling (and there are many) is getting to dress a little bit differently. While I always want to feel comfortable and like myself, whenever I visit a new place I try and adopt a bit of their unique style into my own.

After a few days spent in head-turning sequins, blending into my surroundings didn’t seem so bad. I got this lace cutout sweatshirt last Spring and it’s great for days when you want to be presentable but secretly super comfortable. Same goes for a pair of tailored shorts. And then in the ultimate minimal, finishing touch – these architectural black and white mules. Like little skyscrapers you can wear.

After layering this dress to wear it as both a skirt and a top – I knew for the ‘Big Day’ I wanted to let it shine on it’s own. And seriously, the thing shines. I felt like a modern-day mermaid. Nothing more than side swept hair, statement earrings, a metallic clutch and nude heels and I can tell you I am ready for the whole ‘I do’, cut the cake, dance floor, late night lobby party shebang.  Would love to hear which was your favorite wedding season look this week!
