Beetlejuice Dress

My boyfriend calls this dress my Beetlejuice dress, thanks to this childhood favorite.

By now, most of you know all about my love for Maxi dresses (seen here and here). I counted today and it turns out I own six of them. But my others are mostly solid colors and summer-y. This one is a little bit edgier (and um, more “Beetlejuice-y”).

I figured this edgier Maxi warranted some leather – in jacket, boot, and handbag form. During the winter I got in the habit of wearing this jacket and handbag almost daily, but when the weather started to warm up I opted for lighter coats and sweaters (and switched up my handbags). But I truly love these pieces and I’m glad I threw on this jacket before going outside – because although the sun was shining, the wind was still blowing full force. This resulted in a relatively chilly stroll around our neighborhood.

Carter may laugh at me when I wear this dress but I’m actually getting a lot of milage out of it. By the time this blog gets posted I will have worn this dress three times – once with my leather jacket (as you can see in this post), once with my H&M denim jacket, and once with this blazer.
