I give you three looks, one versatile dress. I accidentally layered two belts because I put it on my dress like that looking in the mirror, trying to decide between the two. After so long, I just said screw it and left it there, happy without having to make a decision.  First stop of the day was in Mitsuwa market and my favorite ramen place in Irvine, Santouka. Spent a lot of time in the candy and chips aisle as you can see, but grabbed my go-to strawberry chocolates, melon cream soda, and the hello kitty rice ball cookies. I just love, love, and adore the lil old man in the 7th picture! Made it back home after a large bowl of spicy miso ramen. It's a bit chillier in my house so I love to throw on this soft, drapey UNIF robe/coat while lazying around the abode. I have yet to justify wearing this robe out without looking like I stepped out of my bathroom, any ideas? Third stop was dinner at BJ's because damn, I was really craving the pizookie and some Hef. For bracing the nighttime breeze, I added the pastel pink blazer from Zara. To my amazement, it created such a nice tri-toned neutral fade. 

Here's the actual dress from Need Supply Co., deconstructed. 



This dress eludes a modern Artemis look to me, with its earthy tone and brilliantly designed drape. It's perfect to wear when I'm too lazy to add layers of accessories or clothes. The slouchy back begs to not be hidden. 

vest: Nasty Gal (old)
shoes: Zara 
blazer: Zara (similar here)
bracelets: Forever 21, ASOS, Etsy
necklace: Urban Outfitters (old)
belts: vintage


Which look do you like best?
