Thank you, Angie, and everyone else who has chimed in!
Angie, I like the idea of a navy scarf with this dress--I wouldn't have thought of that! Re. you featuring the blouse in a prior blog post: I must have subconsciously filed that away, then when I saw it online at the Rack, knew it was fabulous! Somehow I *thought* you would like the blouse left out with the slouchy pants and shorter boots :).
Sveta, the boots are by Moma. It's an Italian brand that I saw at yoox.com. I also saw the brand at gravitypope.com, which is a Canadian store, right? I think Yoox features last year's merchandise, because the Moma boots at Gravitypope are much pricier :).
Aida, thanks for writing such detailed styling suggestions! You are the best at doing that! Some great ideas...
Thanks again! It's fun to think about fall, though we are still firmly in summer right now!
