Weekly Wears: Sheer Love

My newest love is anything sheer.  I love dresses and shirts with sheer sections-- it adds just a bit of fancy to whatever you're wearing.  Or, I guess I should say that it makes me FEEL fancier... and, if I'm being totally honest here, I have to admit that I LOVE a little bit of fancy.  ;)

Shirt: c/o ModCloth;  Skirt: the Velvet Bird;  Tights: Target;  Shoes: c/o Lotta from Stockholm;  Roses clip: c/o Oh My Deer

In other news... How I Met Your Mother is streaming on Netflix and I can't stop watching.  I love that show.  It's also nice to have something to keep me company during nighttime stitching.  ;)

I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday!
xoxo Katie

    Are those Lotta from Stockholm clogs any good?? They look great, and they're sooooo much less than the Hasbeens everybody has been wearing, but they don't have reviews on their funny little website. Your hair DOES look magical, by the way!

      YES! This is my second pair and I LOVE them! I wear the Lottas quite a bit more than the Swedish Hasbeens because they are more comfortable, in my opinion. :)

    The blue shoes are adorable! And the velvet skirt? Oh, wow! I've always wanted a velvet something but is it hard to take care of with laundry and everything? I'm not very good with the house works. And How I Met Your Mother? I AM SO CURIOUS TO WHO BARNEY MARRIES AND WHO THE MOTHER IS! Is it already warm there? You don't seem to be wearing any layers and I just have to wonder...

    It's so funny that you say the sheer makes you feel more fancy, because I feel like this is one of the more casual outfits you've featured. I shy away from lace and dresses, even though I love them, because they make me feel overdressed. I think I could be quite comfortable in this outfit, though!

    I absolutely NEED to know the magical secret of your hair color! Mine looked just like yours when I was little, but now it has deepened to a darker auburn-y color, and I haven't been able to get that perfect red back that you have. Please reveal to me your secrets!
