WIW 4/27: Vintage dress for work; party dress for Date Night

1. I bought this black polyester midi at the vintage store and wasn't quite sure how to style it until the green GAP blazer jumped out of the closet along with the matching belt from Amazon Marketplace. SUPER happy with how this turned out, and I think the Kate Spade pink patent pumps with rainbow heels were a nice addition, too! The white bag is from eBay.

2. Tonight is Date Night and I busted out my Desigual party dress and Guess sky-high nude platform sandals, along with the gold Michael Kors bag. All these pieces were picked out and purchased by Hubby!! Doesn't he have great taste?

MaryK, you rock brights and high-contrast colors like nobody's business. Wow! I really like how the dress pulls together the pink pumps and the bright green blazer.

You look dazzling in your shimmery date night cocktail dress! Kudos to your husband for sure - he knows you well.

Gosh, how pretty you look in #1 and how sizzling you look in #2.

I am very much enjoying the thought of your clothes jumping out of your closet and around your room as you get dressed each day. If anyone's clothes would do that, they would be yours!

Love the ladylike, but playful vibe in #1. I have to recover from the drop dead sexy in #2! Wowza! Hope you had a great night!

You are rocking the vintage lately! Fun dress worn with bold shot of color.

I like the fit of dress #2. DH knows what makes you happy - that's the important thing

Man, I still love that Desigual dress! It is a Par-tay frock for sure!

The midi is a party in its own right, too, almost like confetti. Very fun with the brights.

The jacket makes that vintage dress *sing* --- love that stained-glass-ish pattern. So beautiful, boldly beautiful.

However, that date night outfit is the ultimate shimmering showstopper. Absolutely stunning. Hubby is A-mazing!

Date night dress is lovely too. Hubby has great taste!

For this work outfit you have my permission to keep the blazer on all day, I love it with the navy dress! Your man picks good everything but he is an especially gifted shoe buyer. WOW those pale mega heels are making me change my mind about ankle straps.

Plus I don't know if this is on purpose but he picked a dress that color coordinates with your woman cave.

I'm in vintage heaven - love it with the blazer & belt - looking very demure & business like & then kapow - date night - killer heels what a winner.

I, too, am enjoying the image of your clothes jumping out of the closet and begging to be worn. "Puleeeze, Mary K - I PROMISE I'll be good...pretty please?"

And no wonder they beg. I adore #1. What a great way to wear your green blazer and I am a sucker for the dress.

As for #2, wow! Hubby has earned his YLF stripes. Gorgeous!

KILLER x2.

I love to see your insanely fab legs Mary, but when you wear a midi, nothing can beat your elegance factor.
