Dress c/o Gracie B (15% off shop with code SANDYALAMODE, good until 9/21/12) | Tights: Target| Shoes: Seychelles via Modcloth | Necklace c/o JEWELIQ | Bracelets: INPink

This past weekend, the weather has considerably started taking a turn for the cooler.  Although I do love hot temps, I have to admit, it’s feeling kind of nice right now.  It’s fun to be able to add back tights into my daily wardrobe as they make wearing a shorter dress or short shorts so much more doable for me.  I’ve been eyeing this teal + chevron dress ever since it came out.  Teal is a jewel tone I am loving right now and well chevron, you know how much I love it (*ahem* blog banner).  Another great dress that works for Summer as well as transitioning into Fall!  How was your weekend?

Has it cooled down where you are?

    The chevron print is sooo cute! I love the matching teal shoes too. It’s a lot cooler today but still too warm for tights here.

    We’ve started to cool down here in NJ, but not enough yet for tights. I love this dress. The jewel ton teal is going to look so great this Fall.

    I just LOVE this dress! Black, white and teal is one of my favourite colour combinations. That dress looks adorable with those shoes and tights. The temperature here in Toronto has significantly dropped too. It’s a nice change, but I’m definitely not looking forward to WInter.

    I think this outfit is PERFECT. The chevrons are so on trend and the t-straps definitely give it a little kick. The black tights let the colors and patterns pop so much more. Great styling!

    Love the solid with the chevron. May have to turn my chevron dress into a skirt ;) . It’s certainly cooler in the am and pm here. During the day, still warm. Love it though!
