Botanical Winter

by Karen Blanchard

21 January 2016

This massive flowing dress is from one of the best people in the world…

Dress: Glamorous. Try Paul & Joe (60% off), Asos flutter sleeve dress or the Jessie by Free People (this for Spring!!). Polo neck: Gap. Jacket: Vintage. Try Blank Denim (on sale) 0r Nordstrom’s options. Boots: Zara. Bag: Coach. Reminds me of the Chloe Hayley bag. Try Coach’s Nomad bag. Shades: Ray-Ban

My mate Paula from London sent me this dress as a Christmas present and I knew I’d wear it immediately.

The bag is an old vintage Coach in an oversized hobo shape that feels like it’s from the seventies. Actually correction – it probably is?!

That print is gorgeous. It sounds odd, but it reminds me of the pattern used so often in stationery from Florence. And to me, that is a good thing! I love the way you put this look together. Thanks for sharing!

  No I know what you mean. I thought the print looked traditional too like something I’ve seen before used beyond clothing

    Yes, like a beautiful tapestry or something 🙂 Also, saw a Glamour tweet featuring you earlier tonight and thought, “OMG, that’s Karen!” Good on you!
