It has been too long since I wore my star print dress, no? I wore it so much last year that I can only be inspired to wear it when I can think of a fresh way to style it. This little jacket from H&M did the trick, making the ensemble feel somehow patriotic. While black flats would be an easy end to the outfit, I did a little doodling on my shoes with a paint pen. I do enjoy shoes with a little splash of personality and clearly haven't moved past my high school habit of drawing on my Converse.

Whatta coincendence. Right before opening this blog, I was thinking to myself, 'I would really like a black dress with some cute white stars on it.' Yours is pretty much the best example of what I want my dress to look like. ♥
Those are awesome shoe doodles! I am so inspired! You look fantastic as per usual! Do you hem your dresses? Your dresses are always so fantastic! And I am so tempted to buy them online. But then I worry they will be way too short on me; because they fit you so perfect!
The whole outfit is just perfect! Cute star dress, military jacket, perfect gloves & the clock are amazing!
I love the gloves detail!! ♥
Obviously I need to drag myself off to H&M. Your jacket and Q's pants the other day have reminded me why it's worth the 3 hour drive.
very cute outfit, I loooooove that star print dress!

Those shoes are amazing, I would never managed to get the pattern to look so perfect like that! Love the jacket to, just a little military, not overly done! Your settings are always so peaceful!
Your doodled shoes turned out amazing!

I love it! The shoe doodles are waaaay better than any customized Converse I've seen. And the "vaguely patriotic" vibe is just plain super!
This may be one of my favorite looks! Love the combination of the jacket and dress and you did an awesome job on the shoes. Love, love, love!

Fantastic yellow gloves!! It make everything in this outfit, so great idea to wear them!! I'm in love with your jacket too, I saw it once in H&M but never tried, now I have regrets!!

I love your doodle shoes. Where can I get myself an affordable pair of leather oxfords? I'm having a hell of a time!
You look very patriotic, and that view is gorgeous. So beautiful. I wish I had such a lake near me.

I just love that horse necklace-watch! Such a cute addition to the outfit.
Love the shoes! Very creative. It's hard to be believe they're Converse. Ah, don't be surprised now if Urban Outfitters comes to you now asks you to design a line of shoes for them ;)
goodness this is gorgeous. love the dress, love the shoe embellishments, love the yellow glove.
you are masterful!
How creative of you to doodle on your shoes like that! And I absolutely adore your dress and jacket.
your doodled shoes are AMAZING! how is it possible to draw with a paint pen and make it so neat?!?! skills! it looks amazing and super unique.

Amazing Outfit! I think it amazing that you draw on your shoe/items, even if for you it is an old habit. I would love to be able to make my items my own unique one! :)

You look great. I love what you did to your shoes!
I saw that jacket at H&M jacket yesterday. I love how you styled it with the dress. I wish I was confident enough in my doodling to add some artistic flair to an old pair of shoes.
The way you reinvent a piece of clothing is so inspiring! Love the dress!

What a smart outfit -- and those little mustard yellow fingerless gloves are j'adore-worthy. I always love how thoughtful and serene all these photos are. I always want to take the dog on a walk on the river trail by our house after reading your blog -- wish it wasn't raining today, though!
