{ costume of the day } dining dash

i've been impatiently waiting for an excuse to wear this dreamy dress {it first appeared in this post}, and a monday night dinner party at nyc-spot-of-the-moment the lion finally afforded the perfect opportunity! the fabric is beyond gorgeous ~ with nuance and details that are sadly lost in this light.


since the temperature miraculously dipped below 90, i couldn't resist pairing it with my current favorite blazer. i always love a great jacket, and this one is the perfect weight, the perfect length ~ and the printed lining seems to weirdly work with everything in my closet! i capped it all off with an enormous necklace ~ a must-wear for seated affairs, when you need {more than ever!} an ensemble that entertains from the waist up.
{ antique rayban sunnies, self-designed necklace, rachel rachel roy jacket, dress courtesy of modcloth, vintage belt & bracelets, vintage ring from india (via club monaco), reworked clutch, dolce vita shoes }
