Outfit Of The Day (Black Out Back)

One of the things I really enjoy about the blogging community is the immense amount of talent some of our fellow bloggers have. They craft, they sew, they design- and they often sell their one-of-a-kind wares on Etsy so the rest of us poor goons (that can barely draw a stick figure to save our souls) can buy it and revel in its awesomeness. Or, rather, their awesomeness.

Vera is one of those people. She's a jack of all trades- she writes, she photographs, she designs, and she's pretty much incredible. When she threw one of her new designs up on Etsy, it took all of .02 seconds for me to pull the trigger. It's meant to be worn as a dress, but with the weather taking a sudden turn back for winter, I think it works as a fabulous tunic as well:

♥ About...

Chloe, Colorful Colorado. 5'8" (only) when teetering in her highest 6 inch Miu Miu platform heels. Likes fashion, broccoli, ice cream, clarifying that she does not eat ice cream with her broccoli as to not cause worldwide panic, hoarding beauty products & pretty shoes, tickle fights with her husband (he would like to clarify that he does not like them back, OKAY?), anything covered in sprinkles, any alcoholic beverage made with Tang, live music, clicking the camera, sarcasm fonts, vases stuffed full of pretty flowers, and laughing hard until her belly hurts. Wants an adventurous life, lots of puppies, to never obtusely wander around with her fly down, and to be an iconic Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dress with a bright, festive print when she grows up. This is where she bravely documents it all. (oh you really want more, do you?)
