Jeanswest Stripe Dress, Balenciaga Rouille Work | Lace Pencil Skirt and Tee, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran Bag and Video

Here's what I wore to work on Wednesday:

Belted Jeanswest Rita stripe jersey dress studded flats Bal work bag

Balenciaga 2006 chevere Rouille work bag

Necklace: Dogeared 3 Wishes Stardust Bead Necklace (New purchase)
Dress: Jeanswest 'Rita' stripe jersey dress (New purchase)
Belt: thrifted orange and gold skinny belt
ShoesNineWest Lovelyou studded flats in black
Bracelets: the usual
BagBalenciaga classic work in 2006 Rouille


Wanted to wear some of my latest purchases on Wednesday. Picked up this striped dress in the Jeanswest sale. It's very similar to the one in black I already own, as I really like the style. I'm definitely guilty of buying the same thing in different colours when I like something!

Linking up with Three-fer Thursday, What I wore to work, Fashion Informant, Friday's Fancies, Friday's Fab Favourites, Casual Friday linkup, Friday's five today.


Last worn: orange belt, studded flats, Balenciaga Rouille work bag. First time I've worn the dress and necklace as they are new purchases.





Here's what I wore to work today:

Office wear lace pencil skirt and burgundy tee

Skirt: Living Doll Wednesday black lace skirt (New purchase)
ShoesMarc by Marc Jacobs patent leather logo plaque flats
Bracelets: the usual
BagMarc By Marc Jacobs Classic Q Fran bag with gold hardware in carob brown


More new purchases! I couldn't resist The Iconic and Jeanswest sales last week, so I got a few new wardrobe additions. Both parcels arrived on Tuesday which was nice. Thought that this tee and the skirt paired nicely together. And the tee goes so well with my carob brown Fran bag! :)

I have a little video review of my Fran bag on youtube. It's easily my favourite everyday bag!



Last worn: ballet flats, Marc by Marc Jacobs Fran bag. First time I've worn the skirt and tee as they are new purchases.

  5. You know how I love that lace pencil skirt! This new in Jeans West T goes with it perfectly I must say! I'm a big fan of the colour wine (cloths, shoes and bag) so I'm biased lol!

  19. What I love about your Jeans West dress is that it looks great, and really smart but so comfy at the same time. I have a similar dress that I bought last year. I'm glad it's still in fashion :D. Have a great weekend! sparkle2day.com

  20. Black and orange---someone's getting into the halloween spirit early! :P I like how your shoes have that extra rhinestone detail that adds some extra glam to the outfit.

  24. I LOVE the striped dress! Actually, I'm into everything stripes right now, I bought a similar dress. I just think it's so versatile and easy to transform into any season. Love that broke it up with an orange belt and accessories -- great fashion choice!
