Golden Morning.

Hunter Bell Floral Dress 2

Shooting outfit posts before work can be pretty hit or miss, but when Lydia and I shot these photos last Monday morning, we got really lucky. The light was just really beautiful and perfect… lucky us!

I wore this dress from my friend Hunter’s line, and keeping with the purple theme, this gorgeous hat from Otte. (If you read regularly, you know I have a hard time finding good hats… I was so excited to find out that Otte’s hats actually fit my ginormous head.) And yes… I finally bought the Stuart Weitzman 5050 Boots. After saving + using a couple gift cards, they are finally mine. Honestly they are just the best boots. None of the less expensive versions fit quite as nicely and the leather is incredible. I like that it’s soft + durable but still has a nice shine to it. I love them so, so much.

  10. You’re so right – beautiful light! I love your outfit too, these pictures are wonderful. The dress is so pretty and such a nice feminine piece to mix with the boots. I totally agree on the 5050 boots – I splurged on them this year and I’m really glad that I did! They’re just absolutely gorgeous and I love wearing them. They seem to upgrade every outfit!

  14. I have a really irrational love affair with those boots. Irrational since I live in Florida! I’m dying for them. By the way, they’re 25% off now, through tomorrow, on PIperlime! ๐Ÿ™‚ {and if readers prefer shopbop, they’ll price match!}.

    One of my favorite outfits on you on all levels. Gorgeous, Grace!

  15. I love this whole look. Reminds me that I want to try out OTK boots, but not sure how to translate them into an office look easily.
