I think I started to go a little crazy from not doing any real layering in the past couple of weeks, so I put on two dresses.
:P Mind you, they're very thin, so there wasn't any chance of me dying of a heat stroke!

Picture

How I managed to wear two form fitting dresses and not look like a burrito, I have no idea. However, I'm glad that I could make it work, because I love these colors together. I'm always experimenting with combining different shades of the same hue and I was recently inspired by a photo of pastel vintage cars (and a scooter). I loved the color scheme in the photo and I wondered if I could combine them in an outfit and do so in a more or less uncomplicated way. Since the light blue floral dress and the dark blue pleated dress had the same colors, I just wore them together. ^_^ Also, I wanted to play up the fact that the outer dress is shorter and highlight more than just the floral collar of the inner dress.

Picture

I honestly wasn't sure about adding the white gilled sandals. I'm not completely convinced that white shoes look good on me. >_< Still, I feel like the white color was totally appropriate given the overall color scheme. I dunno. I'd like to wear these shoes more often. Hopefully, they'll grow on me. ^_^

This looks like one dress. I love the idea of layering, but I'd look like I just gained 20 lbs if I tried to do this.

I like the two dresses together, very much! You know I love floral prints, and the one underneath is so delicate and sweet, while the pleated one is more powerful - I love pleats, by the way! I really loved the combination and I like the white shoes too! I do like them on you, I think it made the outfit even fresher and cool! And I think you look always fabulous!

Rad! Thanks! :D I think this outfit on a different person would have looked better. I dunno. I'm not sure white shoes compliment my skin tone. >_< Heh.

So I keep meaning to comment on all your outfits...and then you post more outfits, and I'm so distracted by the new one that I forget to comment on the old ones. Thus continues the vicious cycle. It ends now! I'm loving this, and especially loving how versatile you are. You're the most chameleonic blogger I've ever seen.

Heck yeah. I love layering dresses but only in the winter. I'm too fat and sweaty to double layer anything in the summer, no matter how light it is. Hee hee!

I like this- it looks like an overlay and seems very subtle and feminine.
