Hello, Tori Burch dress twin! Do you just love yours? I am so excited to see it on you! You look amazing in it! The addition of light-colored shoes is a good idea. I can see this dress getting a lot of mileage at social events as well as work -- it could be quite dressy, given the fabrication, or made a little more casual with the addition of boots.

What a great capsule, and the colour is so very flattering on you. The booties just slay me. Love everything about them.

Love everything about the new dress Suz!
I can see the booties with grey tights for the cooler weather.
I am with you re. itchy sweaters!
Funny story- I have a knit dress with a funnel neck that was sooo itchy. I ended up sewing the cut-off pant part of my DDs old tights into the neck
My favourite winter colours here too!

Love...especially the dress!

Fabulous buys & I love how you have eased them into your wardrobe. The new dress is fantastic.

It was helpful to see the new pieces side by side with the ones they are replacing - the new ones are more modern & sophisticated imo.

These are homerun looks. I really liked #1 when it was posted in real time. But #2, I almost fell off my chair, THAT is YOUR look! Love, love, love this on you. It has slouch, it has pattern, it has the divine cranberry color. This is my favorite look. The dress is another gorgeous piece and indeed a go anywhere item. A great feature to have for a dress. You nailed all of these. It's also nice to see what goes, I'm learning a lot from my own closet purge.

Thank you -- and I agree, the new pieces are much better. They're not necessarily more expensive, either - interestingly enough. Well, the dress is, but that was an admitted splurge.

And totally worth it! (Waving at dress twin Laura!) I won't wear mine for work (since I work at home) but I will certainly wear it for dressy occasions outside work and I can also make it more casual with boots, as Laura suggests, and even a denim jacket, perhaps!

Lyn, oh colour-buddy, that is such a great idea about the funnel neck itchy sweater! I will have to keep that in mind!

All hail the Queen! Fabulous finds and especially that delicious dress. I love the neckline, the print...everything about it.

Wow! So wonderful on you. Your old dress and new one aren't radically different, yet the old one doesn't do you justice at all; it somehow reminds me of your old, longer hairstyle. Make sense?

Totally makes sense, Donna. Great analogy!

The fit is a lot better on the new dress and so is the fabric. I am learning what a difference that makes.

That color palette is delicious on you Suz! Total win, all of it

These are gorgeous pieces and such rich colors on you Suz!! That sweater will be super versatile - love it in 1 and 2 - especially with the white shirt. What a stunning dress capsule you have between the cobalt sheath and this fabulous Tory Burch. Are those your gold shoes with the Tory Burch?

They are indeed, Pil. The dress has a couple of gold toned buttons at the shoulder, so I just went with that. I don't really wear gold accessories a whole lot (but I like gold equally to silver). I may have to hunt out a gold cuff.

Truly stunning -- all of them, Suz! I, too, am loving 1, 2, 5. Such color with refinement and depth! Perfect proportions and fits!

Hello Bootie twin!

Oh.. one more thing. You are doing so well at keeping variety and fun in your wardrobe while keeping it focused on your real life and real wardrobe needs. Brava!

I adore #1! Those tonal colors are divine on you! Loving the colors in the Tory Burch collection this fall....good splurge. I've gotten the most wear out of my splurge items over the years. I've been learning a lot from your posts. Just started my closet purge and trying to find some staples. It's a lot of work to find the right items. After reading your posts I can see that you put a lot of time into your new wardrobe. I commend you....it's really looking great!
