Getting Shifty

May 22, 2013

Layering is one of those things that can be tricky. Either looking really great, or ending up looking and feeling really bulky. Start with the basics, putting a denim shirt over a simple shift dress looks cute, but buttoning (in my case zippering) it to the top makes a bolder statement. The dress suddenly becomes more skirt-like and adds a bit of a flirty element. Go a step further and add a spring blazer in a cotton material. This one is great because it has a striped lining that gives the look some dimension through print (similar here). The weather this day was perfect for showing some leg but still covering up on top. My sister and I took advantage of the sun setting and shot these pictures that turned out beautifully with the sun flares. You can check out her website here and her Flickr here
