Similar to a vest or a scarf, one of the easiest ways to enhance a simple ensemble is to layer with a sleeveless trench coat. Maybe you’re wearing a solid cotton dress and it needs a little oomph. Or a body con mini and you need some coverage. I used a sleeveless trench to add some edge to a lace up olive dress. I think it did just the trick!

The lace up trend continues to boom. You have probably noticed lace up tops, bodysuits, etc., stocking the shelves at your favorite retailers. I’m a fan of this racy fad but sometimes it isn’t the most practical. It can become quite a challenge to find the right undergarments. I was pleasantly surprised that this little number was easy to wear and very low maintenance in that department. I topped it with a black sleeveless trench to go along with the black oxford shoes. Naturally, I accessorized with a choker necklace and tassel earrings. I guess you can call me predicable!

I don’t know about you, but “olive” an affordable and versatile number! The Closet Renovation Olive Green Suede Lace-Up Dress from lulus is incredibly soft and only $49! If olive isn’t your color, it also comes in navy. Rock this thing with nude pumps, and flashy gold jewelry on a date night, or tone it down a notch with a pair of booties. For today’s look, I styled this dress with leopard print ankle boots. I always try to mix things up a bit when I am working with a solid color – the animal print was just enough. I further accessorized with a walnut open-knit sweater, a gold tassel cuff, and my favorite army green clutch.

If you live outside of California, pair this dress with a poncho and tall boots for added warmth. The checkered poncho from last week’s post actually matches perfectly. Thank you for your readership and thank you for being you!
