One of the more fun things about having more time to devote to my blog has been finding more interesting places to shoot. My friend Kelly found this wall (it’s at the Paul Smith store in Williamsburg) and given my love of pink, Lydia and I had to pay it a visit. The wall is actually a custom Pantone, made just for Paul Smith. It may quite actually be even more vibrant in person!
As far as this outfit goes, the dress is from one of my favorite brands as of late… Self-Portrait. It’s definitely a bit shorter and tighter than I’d usually go for but I love it for events and parties. I wore it for a fun night out in London and just love it so much!
Outfit Details: Self-Portrait Dress (also here, here, and here) // Tahari Shearling Coat (more affordable options here + here) // Express Tights (the best) // Chanel Bag // Manolo Blahnik Heels // Loren Hope Earrings // BaubleBar Cuff
I bought this coat at the Woodbury Commons Outlets. I was with my best friend and we both ended up buying it. It’s our best friend coat. I’ve wanted a shearling coat for as long as I could remember, and this one is just so amazing. While it is not cheap, it’s currently on super-sale at Saks and a great price for a shearling coat.It’s a bit oversized in silhouette (I’m wearing a size medium) but I really like that. Also, it is SO warm!

So cute!
I’ve seen self portrait on a few blogs recently and I can see why. I’m pretty sure I’ve wanted every piece I’ve seen. Something about the mixture of lace and fabric. Their pieces look sexy but still classic. And this dress is no exception. It looks fabulous on you!
I love spotting great spots to shoot while I explore. It’s like a 2-for-1.
Also I hear nothing but good things about these dresses but I really don’t think they’re for me! You look great though 🙂

I’ve had my eye on the dress as well, it’s SO pretty. Does it fit true to size? Also, is that panel totally sheer, do you just wear a black bra under? Very chic!
So it’s kind of tight. I usually wear a size 6 or 8 (but a 6 more often than not) and I’m wearing a size 8 here. As you can see, it’s definitely form fitting. So I’d personally size up if you order it! ANd yes, the panel is totally sheer so I wore a black bra. It also works without a bra but that’s an entirely different look.. not exactly blog appropriate 😉
great, thanks!
I LOVE Self Portrait, and always want to buy everything they make! The detailing is always so gorgeous, and this one is no exception. The sleeves are amazing!
