40 Days of DVF

I used to wear black colored clothing all the time because I felt it was easy to wear, but ever since I graduated, I feel I have been reaching for bright colors and prints more often. Red is one of my favorite shades, and I am convinced the little red dress is a must-have piece for any fashionista’s wardrobe. 
My love of the red dress was inspired by Zooey Deschanel in New Girl when she wears her Zara dress in the opening credits, and now I own a few dresses in red and that Zara dress. While I like how cute and sweet the Zara dress is, it doesn’t compare to the formfitting effects of a DVF wrap dress. I found this little number last weekend while shopping in SF, and it fits like a glove. I will admit I own the same dress in purple, but the material is very breathable and I could not pass this beauty up knowing the weather was going to be ridiculously hot later in the week. A red wrap dress is definitely a statement piece and it works on a hot day at the office or for a hot date at night.  
I know I am focusing on DVF during my series, but I am also really digging my bracelet. I am renting it thanks to RocksBox, and I am tempted to buy it! It is simple and elegant and I can see myself wearing it with more outfits.
And, before I forget, happy Friday! Thanks for ready Day 16 and see you back here tomorrow!

When I am at work I feel like I’ve had enough of the heatwave, and then the afternoon rolls around and I love being able to walk around at night without needing a sweater. I also appreciate being able to wear my summer skirts. Today’s DVF piece is the beige Postage Stamp skirt that looks like it is made up of feathers. I love the texture and I feel it looks like a couture piece. I dressed it down with my dark wash chambray button down and neutral flats. My flats and necklace are some of my finds while shopping on Poshmark. I was able to buy both pieces using some extra cash I made selling some of my own items and it always feels good to buy something guilt-free. If this heatwave continues I might have to wear this skirt again styled up for work again. 
Thanks for staying updated with my 40 Days of DVF series. I can’t believe I am almost at the half-way point when I have so many more outfits to share! See you tomorrow with my next post.

I’ve always wondered if wearing black during the middle of a heatwave was practical or a faux pax but after trying this look I would like to say declare that it is possible to wear black and not pass out from the heat. The trick is you need to wear light, breathable materials. Both my top and skirt are by DVF and both pieces can be worn in different ways. I’ve used the top during the winter, as seen here, and it just reinforces how versatile this top is. The skirt can easily be worn with a white tank and wedges for a more casual weekend look. 
Hopefully you are keeping cool wherever you are, and I’ll see you again for Day 15. Until next time,
