Endless Chevron Topped with Orange-burst

TGIF Beauties!

I'd like you to imagine, a chevron maxi dress that never seems to end. Imagine a dress that was hemmed 3 inches shorter, yet it still skims just past your ankles.

I have such a dress, my chevron maxi dress truly feels endless. I've shared previously that I am not very fond of long dresses and skirts. Yet, I'm won over by the fact that that this dress is 100% cotton, and it's super cool and wearable even on the hottest of days.

 Okay, enough lounging, on to today's post =)

I'm naturally drawn to chevron prints because they're basically crooked stripes, and IMO stripes win every time.

I usually wear this dress by itself (see here), but I decided to switch things up. Worn with this silk blouse, it looks very much like a long maxi skirt versus a dress (which has stripes on top BTW).

I love sleeveless dresses because they offer versatility. They can be worn alone, with a top underneath, and or with a top on top ;)

Thank you for stopping by today, I wish you a fantastic weekend!

Thrift Store Score: Blue Chevron Peplum

Hello there! Can you believe that we are 7 days into the month of March already? 2014 is well under way! 
Today's Thrift Store Score features this blue number that I nabbed from a thrift shop in a small town (sometimes those have the best finds). 

It was custom made using a neat pattern, for someone or by someone just about my size. The zipper indicates that it is older, perhaps early 1980's. I don't usually go for 80's style, but I liked the colors and the pattern. 

The peplum detailing in the front sealed the deal.

Following my usual motto: "Add Hat When Possible", I topped this look with a blue vintage velvet turban-style hat.

It's nice to welcome the sun back, as we have had several days of rain and flooding. 

I'm actually happy that it rained, and so is the vegetation which now looks radiantly green!
