Before I dive in, let me just say that my computer is still at the Apple store, so I won’t be able to put up my photos of everything I packed until tomorrow (hopefully!) so thank you for being patient. Okay. So, for those of you just joining us, I have committed to, and accepted a remix challenge, brought on yours truly. For the next two weeks, which ends on the 31st of this month, I will remix this little black dress, 14 different ways. This idea was inspired by The Uniform Project, and the fact that I am home in Seattle for the next handful of weeks and needed to pack light. So, with that said, let’s talk about the outfit.
It’s Friday and tonight I am going to meet up with one of my oldest friends for happy hour down in Edmonds, to catch up and fill each other in on the happenings of our lives. I wanted to wear something that was sort of dressed up but still understated—Edmonds is a small little town right by the water and I didn’t want to go overboard—hence the mostly black ensemble with just a few accents of color here and there. It’s warmer today than it was yesterday but still necessary to wear a little blazer and tights, plus what I am going to call my “driving gloves.” Because, well, I get to drive while I’m here. (Woo hoo!)
Stay tuned for another remix tomorrow!

I LOVE this dress belted with the jacket over it! And those gloves are the perfect touch!

Yay! Awesome tights! Great shapes created with your jacket and the necklace, the belt! When you first posted that dress, I was like: oooh, when she belts it, it’s going to be ON!
