What I Wore: Bold Blue

Dress: Lands' End (L - on sale!) | Bag: c/o Dagne Dover | Necklace: c/o Ross-Simons | Shoes: Nine West | Lipstick: Lancome 'Le Carmin'

Now that I have LASIK, I can easily swim laps again but none of my suits are made for real swimming. My go-to for swimsuits is Lands' End so I got their tugless one-piece in this '70s inspired floral print (14DD wishing they carried large bust sizes in petite and wondering if I should exchange for a 12). They were having a 40% off promotion so I went and checked out the girls clothing for Emerson (they have super cute clothes for kids and the sales are amazing; I got her a parka for next winter for $20!) and then I went to see their clothes for women and saw this dress... with the promo the dress was around $45. My last Lands' End order I got a petite dress and it was too short for work so I went with a regular size. LOVE it! It fits so well I don't even have a safety pin at the bust to keep it work appropriate. It's opaque, has great drape, working buttons on the sleeves, and the skirt has a slight a-line so it doesn't cling to curves. It comes in three prints, regular, petite, and plus sizes, and right now is on sale.
Ross-Simons sent me this necklace a few months ago and it has been a favorite. I can't believe this is the first time I'm featuring it on the blog; I've shown it many times on Instagram and InstaStories. This is the 20″ length; I always get compliments when I wear it and I love layering it with other silver necklaces.
I've had this Dagne Dover classic tote for two years and I still adore it. With my new position at work, I no longer have a desktop and vary between two of our offices. I use my Dagne Dover 15″ totes (I also have it in Vermilion) on a regular basis as my commuter bag because they can hold my laptop, lunch, water bottle, purse essentials, planner, notebook, and more. They look polished but not boring and never tip over. Tuesday I showed a business casual look for my more casual suburban office; today is a DC office look!
