We have an appointment, and I will of course be working. These are the days when having a simple outfit ready to go is very helpful!

Elegant, reliable simplicity. Inspiring. Minimalism even in accessories.
Although I think this is an interesting experiment and I like the outfits, I’m sure I would be bored with the dress after only a week!
Ditto. I’d have to use a great variety of coloured accessories and jewellery.
May I suggest that you do a double post for the 100 days on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays in between the main posts on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The main posts would remain as the key focus.
I would be more than fine with that – does anyone else have an opinion? My opinion is that Beth is pretty genius…

Whatever makes your life easier is my vote.
Sounds good to me
I agree.
I posted below, but I want to second the double post idea.
Go with what works best for you!!
I think that is a fine idea … IF it makes it easier for you. I love your blog, in whatever form or style that works for you.
Agreed – do what works for you! I love reading your blog – and am determined to get my wardrobe under control as we do a double-move. Yikes- not for the faint of heart.
Thank you, as always, for all your work on our behalves.
Moving sounds tough enough!
What is a double move?
Kris, we moved a lot for Dh work and I heard a saying that always made me laugh at its accuracy. “Three moves is as good as a fire!” I hope it’ll give you the same wry chuckle as it gave me. Every move I was sure I’d decluttered to the bone only to see another round of clutter leave after we settled in.
I have worn 2 wool& dresses, 1 sleeveless and my first, a long sleeved.Limiting my daily outfit choices, encouraged me to attend to the details of my daily outfit. As a long time reader of TVF, I gathered inspiration from the treasure trove of accessories, top layers and footwear. I enjoyed TVF even more because I wasn’t visually overwhelmed by the beautiful color ways and patterns, most of which I’d not be comfortable wearing no matter how much I enjoy viewing.
I still love the details and reading the comments as inspiration .
What were some favorite posts you used as inspirations?
Recently I was thinking about some of the more…. adversarial hereoines, whose accessories show things like daggers or poison bottles! (But Janice’s inclusive Zen-style pendant shown on this post is also in my style… we contain multitudes!)
I would love to see double posts as well. This dress experiment is interesting to me. I am hoping for your success. It might spur me to try something similar using pants instead of a dress.
Ahhh…and I had the same idea with a skirt I love. Problem is, I would seriously have to do two outfits to cover the activities in my life…at least one pr of hiking pants with the skirt for every day/appointments/meetings/dinners/parties.
I LOVE this dress experiment. It’s a great backdrop for accessories. This quiet simplicity is really appealing. I’m not a dress person but this is really pulling at me.
Do the sweaters shown to go over the dress not cause a “bunch up” at the dress waist.
Which tops go. Over dress and which go under. Thank you, ann lee s.
The sweatshirt bunches up the bottom of the dress just a bit – maybe 2 1-inch pleats appear to make the skirt fit under the sweatshirt. But it’s just as if I was wearing a gathered skirt…
hugs,
Janice
