Thanks Shannon, Helen, Claire, Lyn, Shu, Harmonica, Una, Fern, Jonesy, Jewell, Beth Ann, Sona, Andrea, Mary, Debbie, Kiwichick, Vicki & Cheryl for the kind compliments!
Claire, good suggestion, I think the black doctor bag would be a good choice to match it too. Yes, there are black spots on the animal print heels. Actually my wallet does fit inside the little tile purse, but then it won't snap shut.
Harmonica, when I was wearing this combo one of my patients said to me, "You're having fun with fashion, aren't you?" and I said, "Yes I am!" Maybe she's a secret YLF'er!
Vicki, I know, I know, I feel the same way when I hear about all the super fab thrift finds that Claire, Shannon etc. seem to find. How come I never find anything good in the consignment/thrift stores? The dress is a size 6 which is my typical dress size (I'm usually size 4 for tops and pants and 6 for skirts and dresses) so I would say it runs true to size. I found the dress online at Nordstrom (but it's full price at $138 there--I got it for $40 at TJMaxx):
