Ally-quin

I finished work unexpectedly early today.  Contemplating how to spend the free time, one activity leaped to mind -- fashion-blogging!

I pulled out an interesting dress I thrifted last week for seven dollars.  I like its bold Harlequin print.  I figured it could be the centerpiece for many outfits.

I surrounded it with complementary items and hope the ensemble jells.  What do you think?

    Wow! Your legs look a million miles long in this!

    I like the colours. Burgundy is always nice.

    Burgundy is beautiful on you and I love your lip color. It's a great pink!

      Thanks. Me, too. It was a surprise product in a Birchbox.

    I think it was really smart to put a longer top with the shorter dress so that it's not too seductive. And, oh my gosh, do your legs ever end?

      Thanks. That was my thinking. Normal-length dresses are short on me because of my height, so I have to be careful not to expose too much. And yes, my legs start in New York and end in New Jersey. :-)

    How is it that you always find the cutest things for so cheap?! I LOVE this look. It is very "fall fashion" to me. LOVE <3

      Thanks, Sara. All credit must go to Saver's, my thrift-store. They always have nice stuff and it's always amazingly cheap.

    The bold black and white print make the other colors really pop!

    i think you did well with the proportions here. and with a bold print, it's nice that you kept everything else simple.

    You look SUPER HOT in that outfit ... of course the first thing that jumps off the screen are your KILLER legs. I love the burgundy on you! And that dress was a real find for $7!

    Good way to spend some unexpected down time!!!
