Little Black Dress

So, as you've probably noticed by now, I like to be comfortable. My sister is all about high heels and strapless foundation garments. I'd pretty much be happy running around every day in yoga pants. And sometimes I do.

This outfit is a dressier version on that theme. Cute. Comfortable. Aaah... That's the stuff.

The foundation of our comfy/cute outfit? This dress from Athleta. Athleta sells higher-end athletic wear and is part of the same company as The Gap and Banana Republic. I have a few things from there, including my most favorite running / yoga pants ever. But I'll blog about them another time. For now, I'll just tell you that clothing from Athleta can take some serious punishment and still look like new.
For autumn layering, I love it with this cardigan from Old Navy (on sale for $22.50!). I love the deeper crewneck. And the slim fit. And the glorious color!

To dress it up a bit more, I'd add some silver jewelry from Stella & Dot.

How great is this necklace ? It's 36" long, so it would also look beautiful doubled. Two of them would be even better - one doubled and one long. (Okay, now I'm just getting greedy!)

Since the necklace is so delicate, I'd punch it up a little with these flirty hoops.

And add these stack rings.

I'm actually going to a Stella & Dot party tonight. I'm pretty dorkily excited about it. I absolutely love almost everything they do!
