WHAT TO WEAR: st. paddy's day

I am completely in love with the look of this crochet mini dress layered over a cotton tank dress as it appeals to both my Texas/California senses. It's the perfect shade of green for Saturday's St. Paddy's Day holiday and to be honest, it's about time I own something green. Plus, it doubles as festival wear! SXSW is still in full swing down in Texas but don't worry west coast, Coachella is right behind. 


Personal note: For me, it's always been about mostly one section of clothing at a time, never the whole ensemble. That of course, is the voice of inexperience and I'm slowly but surely training my mind to think in terms of whole, rather than pieces. Wearing a great dress but with shoddy shoes and the wrong bag isn't too far off from sporting panty lines or apathetically forgoing neat nails- it's such an easy fix and almost criminal not to take into consideration. 


Use dressing up tomorrow as an excuse to look at your whole outfit very carefully. And get those pinching fingers ready for those who went without their lucky green.
