This Isabel Marant dress that I swooped from Barney's is my new flavor of the week. It's a simple shirtdress but its superb details make it the shirtdress to have. The silk/cotton blend feels amazingly soft (first thing I look for in anything), the red is wearable year round, and the hem is cut in the most flattering manner. It's such a staple that I feel so lucky to have found and bought on impulse (a terrible habit of mine, but see, good things come out of it). I instantly thought of the beautiful union this dress would be with this vintage Calvin Klein denim dress-turned-coat that's been crumpled in the corner of my closet for months, because it hasn't yet found its match. Good things come to those who wait! I love love love the deep denim together with the brick red. And from there I chose the Western road.

P.S. so many of you loved my mom's vintage skirt I wore yesterday, that I went hunting for a similar one until I came across the exact one on Etsy! So worth it.
