What I Wore Wednesday - Cardi & Ruffles

By ruffles, I mean the kind that are on a dress... Not the kind that you eat. 
Dress: Kohl's
Cardi: Target
Shoes: TJMaxx
Bracelet: Bealls
Necklace & Earrings: Target

The dress is actually my sister's. Big surprise, right? But to be fair, I was actually with my mom when she bought it for her AND I picked it out. So, technically, it could sort of be mine. =) Don't you love my reasoning?

This is the dress without the cardigan. I actually think it's kind of plain without the sweater, so even if I weren't at work, I'd probably still wear it.

You know what I'm realizing? I need to get some color ASAP. It's almost July and I'm looking pretty ghostly. Okay, I think I know what I'm going to make time for this weekend... the beach!

arghrghrgh...that's me drooling over this outfit. Seriously! You look sick! (Not the under-the-weather type of sick.) I mean, you look ridiculously chic/sassy/stylish!

Top 3 of my favorite looks on you! And those da** TJMaxx shoes! Why, oh why, do you always wear shoes from TJMaxx that I envy but can never find?!? (Is it b/c I only really look on the clearance racks, maybe?)

Seriously, you need to go somewhere else after work...I don't know...Target...out to dinner...get some groceries...whatever! This outfit is just too killer!

That dress is fabulous and I DO love your reasoning! :)

I think it would look awesome with a wide turquoise belt (turquoise!) or with a bunch of layered necklaces.

Lady, you look so HOT!!! I adore this dress on you. The cropped sweater is perfect with it, and I am having some serious shoe envy tonight :)

Also, I'm jealous that your sister and her wardrobe are close enough for you to raid so much. I need to move mine down here, obviously...
