Yellow sweater, BCBG via consignment – similar items
Well, since we’ve got freakishly warm weather all week long, I’m gonna try to squeeze in a handful of tights-free outfits! There are several on my outfit list that would be totally ruined by adding legwear, and this is definitely one of them. I like it as-is, and can’t really imagine what type of tights would work well in the mix. At least, not ones I currently own …
Confession: I used white athletic peds as dress liners today. It felt a little weird to have socks in my armpits, but I definitely don’t need to dry clean my sweater. Bizarrely, the dress itself got stinky. I guess a 50% success rate ain’t bad.
And, finally, my neckline looks like a pouty lower lip. Thought you should know.
P.S. Still going strong over at the Twin Cities Family Community. We’re chatting about online/in-person shopping ratios, where folks prefer to buy cosmetics, and all sorts of other good stuff!

I love how your tattooes match your outfit! That is superb.
(There's a typo in the title.)
Those shoes are amazing, and your last photo made me laugh.
Grey + Yellow = Happiness.
And then you throw in those bow pumps, and I'm just in love!
JRose: Holy moly, that's the second time today I've had to fix a post title! I need to stop blogging blindfolded …
I love this! And OMG! those shoes are too die for!! And I love how the outfit matches your tat!!

Aw, I just love those pretty shoes. I could see this outfit with some pale gray, textured tights — perhaps just a simple ribbed texture, nothing too busy. Love the pouty face!
SHOES! In love with them. Super cute outfit that highlights them!
Lol! Seriously cracking up at the last picture.
I love those pumps every time you wear them. I think you've gotten a lot of unique pairings out of them.
I would not have noticed the lower lip had you not pointed it out, and now it's all I can see!
What a great job pairing the dress with the sweater. I never would have thought to pair those very different necklines, but I suppose that is why you are the layering queen.
The Auspicious Life
I spent far too much time thinking about what tights you could wear with it, and really, I couldn't come up with anything. I'd love to see it with maybe a different colour shoe and burgundy tights at some point… or at least I better remember that colour combination for when this 30 for 30 challenge is done!!
The tattoo works so well with the outfit too – I'm so glad you chose to photograph it
I totally love that last pic.
And those shoes look amazing–no pics of the bow in the back?!?
I would like to steal those shoes right off your feet dearest Sal. =) And your pouty face picture just wiped some stress from my life.
Seriously, those shoes are awesome!! Love them!
I want more pouty pictures! Or at least facial expressions that imitate your clothes.
Agreed… those shoes are FABULOUS and I love the pouty pic – too cute! I used to have a horse that did that pouty lip thing when he wanted a carrot. His shoes were NOT so glam!
Socks as dress liners? Is that a fairly regular accessory for you? Is this a tip you've passed along in other posts?
The tat and the shoes and sweater are such a cute combo. Isn't it funny when you realize you've dressed to match a tat and didn't even plan it? I guess that's why we picked the colors we did huh? Hey, I got this link from a comment left on Sheila's website. It's something I want to check out, haven't had the money yet. http://www.kleinertsshields.com/ They have some really great products for those of who are sweaty, or stinky… Let me know if you give them a try.
downthegardenpath: Hahaha. Nope. Just tried it on a whim!
I love that bright yellow sweater over the grey dress – grey and yellow are such a fantastic combination – but the thing I love most about this whole look is that you paired those shoes with it. The green is the perfect jolt of color, and I love the little yellow bows in the back. Such a great look, Sal!
The pouty picture is so funny! I love the pop of teal with the grellow!
You are adorable and hilarious. Also, I'm going to steal all of your shoes, especially your space boots from the Casualmere outfit. Just a heads-up.
Love,
Laura
Love the outfit!
But what are "dress liners"? I've never heard of these.
