OUTDOOR TO ELEGANT
I received complimentary product from Orvis for this review.
OUTDOOR STROLLING OR AN ELEGANT DINNER, ONE ORVIS FLORENCE TRAVEL DRESS WILL GET YOU THERE!
Have you heard of Orvis? If you have, you might be thinking “Yeah, I have but I don’t need any outdoor clothes.” I am here to tell you that you need to take a closer look at the new women’s spring line from Orvis. Everything is so cute and versatile. The new Orvis women’s spring collection provides women with function and fashion, focusing on clothing that can be incorporated into your everyday wear.
Take this wonderful Orvis Florence Travel Dress ($119), for example, that I styled five ways!
The Orvis Florence Travel dress comes in two colors (black and olive), XS to XL.
As a Dress in the Wild West!
I paired the Florence Travel Dress with a silk scarf for a belt, a vintage fringe buckskin jacket, tights, mock western boots, a Brighton inspired crossover bag and a faux turquoise and silver necklace. Note how the dress is a perfect neutral against the wild accessories. This is s great example of how easy this dress is to dress down.
Strolling the gardens in a sweater
Who says you can’t wear a dress outside? Here I show how to make the Orvis travel dress a bit more formal. You could wear this outfit sight seeing, to work, or shopping. I like how this popover-style dress has a button-front placket, flap-top pockets, and drawcord cinched waist. Also, the sweater I am wearing is an Orvis sweater from last season that I picked up on sale. The sweater has a gorgeous expensive feel to it and sold me once again on the Orvis clothing line!
Let’s go boating!
I styled the Orvis Florence this time as a skirt. Over it I popped a red nautical stripped mid-sleeved Orvis top that I spotted on sale. Can I just say “my favorite top in my closet for spring?” A blue jean cropped jacket, gold heart thread necklace, gold cuff, leather red bag, vintage pin, tights and quilted boots complete the ensemble. In Michigan, it’s still cold out but the sun is bright. Luckily, this Florence Travel dress has UPF 50 sun protection.
Who says Orvis can’t rev it up?
Styling the Orvis travel dress as a blouse was easy. Under this scuba leopard print skirt the dress is like a liner or slip. Can’t you see how well this dress will travel? A leather jacket, high pumps, tights, vintage purse and crazy necklace finishes off this look. The best part about traveling with this dress? It’s machine washable and wrinkle resistant.
Ready for the Avenue
Nothing says that Orvis won’t work in the big city either! Look how popping this bright silk coat over the Florence Travel dress adds an air of elegance and sophistication. I paired the look with a vintage clutch, black and silver Mary Janes, rhinestone necklace and earrings and my favorite sunnies! I highly recommend the Orvis Florence travel dress and the entire Orvis Women’s Spring line.
