While I wouldn’t say that I have a uniform, per se, a tunic and skinnies is probably as close as I get:
It’s just a really easy look for me on days when I need easy, but don’t necessarily feel like wearing a dress. Today was one of those days, so I paired a dolman-sleeve tunic (Angie via Ross), layered over a lace-trim cami (Old Navy), with “regular” length Flirt skinnies (Old Navy) and a pair of wedges (Bamboo via TJ Maxx). I added a watch and a bracelet and I was done. Not the most inspired look, perhaps, but I think the tunic adds enough interest so that it’s not the most boring look either.
Now, I’d like to say a word about dolman sleeves. I love them. I have several pieces with dolman sleeves (my dress from this weekend, for example) and they’re just great. Especially for someone with my broad shoulders – a dolman sleeve gives my shoulders a bit more room to move around, which I love. I hate feel constricted in my clothes so these really work well for me. Also, as my bloggy friend Erin has pointed out, they have a fabulous sense of drama. And what girl doesn’t love drama, right? Right.
Today’s Takeaway? If you don’t already love dolman sleeves, crawl out from under that sartorial rock and give them a shot. They’re comfy and dramatic.
Happy Monday, Everyone!
