joelle van dyne: ketchup and mustard


i’m going to keep this post very quick today. i’m trying to finish my work at a fevered pace so i can enjoy a ‘summer friday’ schedule. i wore this outfit to a work meeting earlier in the week. i’ve had the jcrew dress in my closet for probably 2 years without ever wearing it. i had wanted it for the longest time based on the nice catalogue photo, and finally my mom got it for me as a gift. in person, the dress that i was led to believe would be a perfectly fitted silk shift dress, was actually a silk sack. now, suddenly, i kind of like it that way.
i usually hate posting work outfits, but that has been the reality of the past week. the lipstick i’m wearing is a new one- laura mercier’s tangerine- and i really enjoy it. it isn’t so over-the-top orange like a lot of lipsticks are this summer, and while it is bright, it’s a little less intense than the standard red. with the outfit i’m giving off a ketchup and mustard vibe, but i promise the lipstick is worth a try.

jcrew dress, vintage necklace, juicy couture sunglasses, chloe sandals (which i posted more about here!), gryphon jacket, mulberry alexa bag
