OOTD: When in Vegas...

My first OOTD!  It always seems to me that it's hard to get someone to help taking ootd pictures, so for my first one, I decided to feature one of my favourite "girls night out" outfits - something I coincidentally brought with me to Vegas.

I love dresses.  I also love having one main piece and working my outfit around it.  This dress, I stumbled upon at Forever 21 a few years back.  Initially, I was worried that it would emphasize my bottom half, but with careful styling, it's actually quite flattering.

I paired this black and pink floral bubble dress with a black lace bodysuit from Urban Outfitters to cover my arms and provide a bit more warmth.  I also threw on some sheer black tights and black wedge heels to elongate my legs and generally stay warm without overdoing it.

As it tends to get cold where I live, and Vegas wasn't exactly warm at night, I paired this outfit with a creamy white 'net' infinity scarf and my friend's faux leather jacket.  I personally really like this outfit as a whole and this dress has to be one of my go to pieces.


And of course, I added my favourite bronze belt from Betsey Johnson to add definition and draw the eye to my waist and used my Violetta Coach clutch (ok, so the clutch doesn't really go).

Dress: Forever 21
Belt: Betsey Johnson
Lace Bodysuit: Silence & Noise (Urban Outfitters)
Shoes: Stuart Weizmann (mom's)
Clutch: Coach
Faux Leather Jacket: (friend's)
Infinity Scarf: some random street vendor

So what do you think of my friends OOTD?  Hopefully, I will get better at this.  What is your go-to "night out" piece?

    1. Thank you!
      haha. I've been told that. My friend took the picture originally BECAUSE I matched the flowers - long standing joke with my friends.
