You probably can't tell that I'm wearing two dresses here. ;P Why would I wear two dresses, but only allow people to see one of them? Well, first, I really need that sweet collar. I couldn't find any sleeveless blouses with the kind of collar that I wanted. My apple dress has the perfect collar, however. So, I just slipped it on underneath. There was about an inch of apple print showing at the hem and I debated whether to keep it there. It looked nice, but overall I felt that it would be too distracting. So, I tucked the bottom half of the apple dress into some flowy shorts. :D Second, it's getting chilly out there, you guys. The more layers I could muster, the better. Hehe. So, I was glad for that hidden layer of fabric.

I think that green and yellow are a classic Fall color pairing. <3  As you can see, I practically blended in with my surroundings. Haha. :P The mustard cardigan is super cozy and the material of the green dress is quite soft. So, the outfit ended up being a nice, colorful and comfortable way to celebrate the Fall season while running around town. My partner and I went out for drinks and snacks after these photos were taken. Then, we spent the rest of the evening watching The Martian. It was rad!

I love these brown wingtip oxfords a lot. They go with everything and they're the only shoes I have in this particular color. I don't know why I have so few shoes. Haha. Anyway, I'm glad to have these. Also, I couldn't resist adding the fox socks. They're one of my favorites and I thought it would be nice to break up the bold color blocking with some, albeit subtle, patterns. The little splash of orange was nice, too. ;)

this is so cool! I love the color of this dress - perfect green shade for fall <3 and wow, so many layers! But you're bare legs, weren't you cold after all? ;)

Luckily, it wasn't super cold. Just a bit on the chilly side. My legs were OK until night fell. Then I was doing a rather fast walk from the movie theater to the car. Haha. <3

oh I definitely approve of the collar. Shame you can't just take it off and appy it to everything :P
Love the autumny colours too, and yay for extra layers.

I'm going to see the Martian this week too, I hope it's as good as everyone is saying.

Hey, there! Thanks! ^_^ Oh, I know. I think detachable collars are the best ever. Hehe. I could use some, for sure! <3 Thanks for stopping by!

AHH! This is so cute!

It's funny to me that you are wearing two dresses just for the collar! However, I definitely see why, peterpan collars are so cute. I think they have some attachable/layerable accessory ones too.

Those fox socks are so cute. And the same with those oxfords. I've been wanting some like yours, but my size always seems sold out. But in contrast, I have plenty shoes, haha.

Hahah, I missed your quirky layering and crazy posts :D I love the idea with the two dresses and this autumn palette. Also,dude,what kind of a female you are with just one pair of shoes with that color, blasphemy! :D

Is your bag new? It's totally adorable! LOVE the mustard and green combo, by the way. :D

Also, what did you think of the Martian? The geeks over here LOVED it (like, best space movie this year. And my partner said it was the best book he read this year too). Speaking of, did you read the book first? I was hesitant about the choice to cast Matt Damon (I mean, seriously? He's too, well, Matt Damonish). I thought the lead should have been someone a little bit more obscure but stupid Hollywood star power and all that. I mean, he ended up being fine but still. :D #idateaspacenerd

Nah, I've had it for awhile now. I think I ripped the canvas somewhere, already. Haha. I'm not that careful with a lot of my stuff. :F

Oh, I really liked it. I'm a fan of Matt Damon, so I guess I'm one of those people who were drawn to the movie because he was in it. Hehe. I'm also a fan of Jeff Daniels and Donald Glover, too, though! :P

I'm a sci-fi nerd, but I never really gravitated towards the hard science fiction novels. My partner warned me that this would be a movie full of technical details based in reality. Haha. So, I wasn't sure if I would "get it," or whatever. It was easy enough to follow, but I'm sure the true tech geeks, such as my partner, got way more out of the movie than I did. It was entertaining, though. For sure. :D

Those are just so perfect autumn colours :D I love that the feet part kinda represents the later part of autumn.

I love that collar! You are the master of layering :'D <3

I really like those colors together! And that cardigan looks really cozy. I'll have to remember your double-dress idea for future shoots as the weather gets ever colder!

Thanks! Oh, just be careful about the fabrics, if you do. There's always a chance of looking like a burrito. I've been there. Heh. ;P

I like the old-school vibe the collar gives the dress. Also- The Boy really enjoyed the Martian too.

Rad! Thanks! <3 The movie was really well done. I mean, it was a loooong film and I barely noticed. I don't think I saw anyone even get up for a bathroom break. Haha.
