Once I spotted this chevron dress on Tieka’s blog a while back, I’ve been pining over it. And now I’ve finally been able to borrow it! Since I have a finite time with the dress, I’ve been making most of my time with it and wore this outfit to work last week and to shop on Saturday. I added a blue skirt over the dress since it’s pretty short and another pop of color with the vintage red bag. I was a little inspired by my gorgeous friend Karyn and created a look that was a mix of me and something I could see her wearing.
I visited my friend, Erin in Detroit on Saturday and we shopped our little hearts out. From the Rust Belt Market in Ferndale to boutiques in Royal Oak and Birmingham, we made our rounds to our favorite spots in the sunshine which was a nice change from the gloom and snow that disappeared last week.

It took me looking back at these photos to realize my friend Erin lied to me when she said the lines were straight and center on the back of my new sheer thigh highs.

Love how you styled Tieka's dress, the pop of blue is so stunning & modern with it. And, go Andrea, your new tattoo is seriously kick-ass fabulous. I can't wait to see it make an appearance on the blog. I've been thinking of doing the same, but will see, I always chicken out. Smooches! V

L-O-V-E that Chevron dress/top – and it looks awesome with that bright blue! There's something very sexy about tights that have a seam up the back. Now it sounds like I'm hitting on you – but really, I just love the tights ๐
