dress: c/o sheinside // jacket: macy’s (similar) // belt: kohls // bag: c/o chicnova // watch: michael kors // bracelet: c/o poshlocket // heels: target

It’s been really cool and overcast all month long around here, and although it’s majorly weird that it was cool enough to wear a jacket on my birthday (that’s, um, never happened), I am not complaining. I mean, while everyone else in the country is griping about sweltering weather, I’m busting out all of my sweaters. I guess this also helps explain the Christmas decorations that they just put up in Hobby Lobby…they think this cool weather means Christmas. And when it’s a steady 70 degrees all year long, I can see how a person could get confused. I had better go hang up our stockings…

Remember the Chippmunk collaboration I did a few weeks ago? The entries were all fabulous, and your outfits and shopping steals were amazing! I had a ton of fun looking through your entries and choosing my favorites! I’ll be announcing the winners tomorrow here on the blog and via social media, so stay tuned!

    Hobby Lobby thinks we all want to decorate for Christmas ALL THE TIME FOREVER. Which, let me get through Halloween first!

    Love the dress! The bit of sheer at the bottom is pretty, and I like that it's got a low enough hemline that it can do that without it being a miniskirt.

  2. I love this, Merrick! You look so great. I'm going to need a hair tutorial…or is your hair just naturally perfectly wavy like that? If so, I hate you…but not really.

    I love your dress, the sheer bottom is really cute. I can see how 70 degrees year round could get confusing!

  6. So gorgeous. And fantastic bag! And about the weather…um, yup…welcome to SoCal! Summer doesn't really start (if at all) until August (and sometimes later).
