Mad for Plaid in Karina Penelope Dress #Dresstacular

December 25, 2013 By Shelley Zurek 128 Comments

Plaid Dress as a Skirt

Blog Note: Whoot! I was provided a gorgeous Karina Penelope dress  for this review!  

Mad for Plaid

The Chief Blonde is wearing the Karina Penelope dress in purple plaid ($158), J. Crew Jacket (old, similar here), Loft Sweater (Old, similar), Jewelry (Rummage sale finds), Kelly and Katie Boots (similar).  

Sometimes You have to Make Do

Occasionally, you have to make do. Sometimes, that works out just fine. For example, I was running short of time but had to get pictures of this outfit taken. Walt and I squeezed in a quick 3 minute shoot while at Sam’s Club getting our tires rotated. Hey, they had holiday decor! I figure it worked.

It’s like this lovely Karina Penelope dress. It has a criss-cross v-front, small gathers on front and back bodice, waistband with pleated skirt, and pockets!!! I love how it is not a big flowy skirt, but a little more fitted. For this outfit, you would just assume it was a skirt unless I told you otherwise, right? I made “Do” to wear this as a skirt and ended up loving the look. I will be doing this a lot more often.

Karina Dresses are for Every “body”

Here’s a few of my friends in Karina dresses as well.

    Going to be honest here- if it were blue it would’ve reminded me of a high school uniform I had to wear. I like it with yur sweater option- and i’d probably would do the same thing- or dd a blazer (there it is the uniform idea)!! 🙂 Looks great on you…
