Snagged this Free People sleeveless knit mini dress, (or is it a side slit maxi top?) from Saks Off 5th while on the hunt for a fringed bag. Wasn’t too sure at first how I would wear this side slit maxi top. But once I wrapped my head around the concept I realized you can get pretty creative with this piece.  starting with layering it over a pair of denim cutoffs.

What I especially love about this dress is the nomadic feel that this piece gives off. Makes me want to throw on a bikini bottom with doc marten boots and hit a desert somewhere…unfortunately for that dream I live in Canada and that is just not going to happen here. Although I might settle for a deserted beach if I can find one somewhere.

After what seemed like an eternity of winter it was nice nice to finally shelf those knits in lieu of silk tops and the ability to forgo outwear. For this evening out I wore a pair of Diesel flared jeans with a pink leopard silk top. I debated over heels vs flats for the longest time. However in the end I settled for lace up ballet flats as I had been going for a more casual dressed down sorta look. Although I’m sure this getup would have looked more chic with a pair of black strappy heels.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend!

Been really enjoying the front lace up trend lately and especially on this top. At first glance upon receiving the top it did appear quite sheer and I was concerned that it might be see through on, but the sheer fabric does give adequate coverage. I like the front pockets and loving the way this style looks with ripped denim paired with a feminine styled stiletto (leopard) heel.

Have a great week!
