OOTD- Sugar-Coated Shirtdress, for a Sugar-Loving Lady!

Good morning blogging pals!! Did I sleep last night?? Wow, it sure doesn't feel like it! Rough night, but hoping for a productive day!

I told you I am on a roll with the shirtdress love! Here is Anthro's Sugar-Coated Shirtdress. I love the tailoring, love the fall colors, love the length, love the vintage-vibe!

Dress: Anthropologie Sugar-Coated Shirtdress
Tank: Ross
Tights: Banana Republic
Boots: Union Bay via Kohl's
Necklace: Owl from Kohls
But look, the neatest part about this dress is, you get a two for one!!This is the Sugar-Coated turned inside out!! Isn't the color beautiful! The lining is done so well, there are no seams! If you remove the tags, it looks like it was made to wear this way! It is a little tricky zipping and buttoning it, but it's do-able! The under skirting has a pretty lace trim, and the real skirt has a pretty ribbon trim that is hard to see in this photo. I love how the shirt is accented by the contrasting trim at the neckline and sleeves! This gives the dress a completely different look!
I was featured in Anthroholic's Reader Outfits this week wearing the inside out look - I love Kim's weekly feature and it's always fun to be a part of it! This week all the ladies look especially fabulous- outfits and backgrounds- you must take a look!
