The Little Black Dress Experiment is coming to a close – I can’t believe August is already over! I’ve loved checking out how the 30 bloggers styled their Ann Taylor dresses.
On a side note, the grainy Mac photo booth photos are due to the fact that neither Lar or my bf were around to take my picture the other day. Thanks for bearing with me!
Before the Little Black Dress Experiment officially ends, I wanted to share two of the sponsor gifts that we received for participating in the project.
Gift #1: Hard Night Good Morning daytime moisturizer (pictured in the center on my bathroom shelf). I’m not a big beauty product junkie, but I have to admit that I love this stuff. It smells good, isn’t greasy and has SPF 20.
Gift #2: Michele Watch. I’m a sucker for watches and I don’t even need them. I have about 3 watches that I’ll wear even though their batteries are dead and I rely on my cell phone to tell the time. I just love how watches can make an outfit look so dapper. I’m sure you’ll be seeing me wearing this watch in many upcoming outfit posts.
The other day I wore my Michele watch with a dress and belt from H&M and Biviel shoes from Eviva. The best part about this dress is that it’s a knit material so I don’t ever have to iron it. I pack it every time I have to go to a work conference.
Hope you all are having a good start to the week. The Decatur Book Festival is coming up this weekend – I can’t wait!
OHH love the Michele watch. Cath and Lar- Thanks for visiting my blog! You guys are the absolute BEST!

I Love the dress and shoes ! The belt really makes the outfit : )
I can hardly believe August is almost over, either! Crazy?!! You look great, Cath! ooo I’m intrigued with this moisturizer. Thanks for the review! Btw, did you get the mug with the “C” from anthro? I was eyeing a similar one not too long ago:) Have a good week!

Yes, the mug is from Anthro – good eye!
I love clothes you don’t need to iron or steam. I want to wear nice clothes, but the care part of it is so time consuming and laborious, and I’m not one who cares for laborious details. Hand wash? What? I can’t just pop it in a lingerie net bag and throw it in the washer? Meh, I won’t buy it.
On the subject of beauty products, I totally am. It drives me insane how many new products I’ve acquired this summer. I can’t believe how much makeup costs, even drugstore brands!
My day cream of choice is yet to make an appearance in my beauty cabinet. So far I am loving Michelle Phan’s Iqqu Advance Sunscreen 50 SPF. It’s a dry formula so I can use it as a primer as well as sunscreen. But I don’t have a day cream yet. Been using Olay Total Effects, but I hate it. No anti-aging as it claims.
I just ordered The Body Shop’s Seaweed Mattifying Day Cream, and I hope I like it.
You look lovely.
XX.
Mae Lu, thereafterish.
Let me know what you think of the Body Shop cream – I usually love their products.

I can’t remember which post you put up the playlist for, but it’s great!
love the sexy librarian chic! 😉
Love the outfit! And I love watches too. I think it’s a great accessory. 🙂
Great outfit, so classy! Love the sound of that moisturiser, it’s always an added bonus if there’s spf in it!
I can’t believe it’s September already! How time flies! I love your little LBD! xxoxoxoxoo
