First things first - have you uploaded a picture of you with your favorite bag (any bag at all) to Tweet My Bag? Rebecca Minkoff will be choosing a winner to receive one of her bags for free! What are you waiting for? Seriously you guys, enter! I want to see one of my readers win.
I made this Maisy dress the other night, with intentions of putting it up on the site. Then I wore it, because I haven't done laundry and I had nothing to wear. Really. It's ridiculous. I even made another dress to wear yesterday - how backwards is that? I don't want to do laundry, so I make myself something. Today I am in pajamas and tomorrow, I swear I'll get some laundry done. Really. I'll probably end up selling both of the dresses after I wash them anyway, at a discounted price. So if you don't mind wearing something I've already worn once, you might want to keep an eye out for discounted dresses!
Outfit Details:
vintage hat - thrifted
Maisy jersey dress - Postlapsaria
studded belt - from my mom's store (I think)
tights - H&M
Her Majesty heels - courtesy of Seychelles
Rebecca Minkoff Nikki bag - on loan from Rebecca Minkoff and Tweet My Bag
vintage 70s jacket - a hand-me-down from my mom:)
Love love,
Keiko Lynn

Your outfit reminds me of autumn, complete with spiced pumpkins and leaves and whatnot. :)
I think your hair curled like that in the cream beret is gorgeous! I also envy how you can just MAKE a dress as an alternative to doing laundry. Maybe the less laundry you do, the more productive you'll be! haha

aww...you are looking gorgeous! i love the dress and tights and the yellow heals are my favorite part!!
Cute dress! And that sounds like just the kind of thing I could end up doing: make myself something to wear instead of doing laundry!

I love the orange explosion! All the colors are lovely together, reminds me of autumn :) Haha I love your laundry alternative, unfortunately I don't sew that fast to have a laundry alternative :(
I had no idea about that FTC regulation! Oh dear.
Love the monochromatic outfit, burnt orange is one of my favorite colors.
such a pretty jacket and you always look like a million (vintage) bucks! :)

at least you made the dress! i go and buy socks/underwear/a new dress when i run out. anything to avoid laundry. it's ridiculous. i have a problem.
So talented! If I could sew, I would never do laundry :)
one of your cutest outfits yet! so flattering :) i'd totally buy this. plus i doubt you're dirty so no one should care that you wore it lol
i imagine doing laundry in the city must be a pain! i can make it for a long time without doing laundry except in the sock department! so i'm stuck doing it at least every two weeks!f
very cute, and so funny because I just did the same thing kinda. I have had a bright yellow plaid skirt on my etsy page for a while, and then just decided to take it back and wear it because I don't own anything bright and wanted to cheer myself up!
wow, I love everything about this outfit!
wow, I love everything about this outfit!
That orange looks DIVINE on you! Way to work it!
Thank you for including in your post the FTC regulations. I think it is so very important to state when something is being sponsored or "paid for" by someone whether with free stuff or money.
i entered tweetmybag yesterday! eeee i hope i win.
and lol @ the making new things to avoid laundry. ;] that's too funny.
<3
That dress is super cute!I can't believe you made it. Can you please go on project runway?!!
Keiko, I swear, there is never one time where you don't look stunning!! Each piece is just as charming and so superb, honestly it's inspiring me to go out and give a whack of change to my closet, sitting all dreary like a dull winter's day. I hope you have a lovely weekend! Thanks for brightening my evening luve!

Can;t wait a spring and colorful outfit. You look gorgeous ;)
You're outfit is amazing. You're one of the few who can pull off matchy-matchy very well.
Gorgeous! I love your outfit and the orange color. It's my first time visiting your blog but I really like it. :) Thanks for sharing!
Just posted my handbag to Tweetmybag. I never win contests, but we'll see. ;)
Love it! And I love Rebecca Minkoff, yes oh yes I do. ♥
oh wow.. i love the colour of your tights! I would definitely buy that dress :)
just like what i said in your chictopia!!! this is just stunning.. brilliant colors!!! love love love! :D
You're beautiful!
I love all this colors! :)
I love the autumn colours! I have a pair of orange tights, a bit lighter than yours and I have never worn them. You inspired me!
Seychelles have some amazing shoes!
You look so cute in that outfit! Did you name your dress after Maisy the mouse? She wears an orange top!

I'm completely impressed that you can make a dress just to have something to wear. Wish I had that talent! And that jacket is very cool. What a great hand-me-down! Great look overall!
Oh I love this outfit so much! the colour is so amazing! I always thought that orange is a difficult colour, didn't now how to pair it, but an (almist) total orange look? WOW, that looks good :D
I love the color combo! This is inspiring me to certainly add more color to my wardrobe. I must.quit.the black.NY.uniform... Lovely!
uh... if I had the talent to just whip up a new dress to wear instead of doing laundry... yes, I would definitely do that, haha. VERY jealous.
i love the orange-orange-yellow-ness of this outfit :)
Too cute you made a dress instead of doing laundry! Sometimes I like waiting to do laundry for a really long time because it makes me wear things in my closet that have been hiding in there forever. Plus, if I decide I'd rather do laundry than wear a dress in the closet, it's time to get rid of the dress, I clearly don't like it anymore!
love your blog! only just stumbled across it and I had to read all the way back to june. Your blog has a lovely tone to it, very charming and chic. Your sense of fashion is innovate and wonderful! I am following you on bloglovin and I would be so honored if you followed me!

That outfit is killer. What and eye you have!!
amazing outfit.
I LOVE peter pan collars. I also love to sew- - I'm sure you make your own pattern, but I was wondering if you knew of any good patterns for a nice simple peter pan collar dress (mccalls, simplicity...etc)
I can't find any anywhere :(
you are very talented!
You're the best ever tights wearer of the world...spectacular...
Wow..these colors are so vivid, I love them! You are gorgeous!
