Lookbook: Coral for Spring

So I have a total of 4 closets that I use to store all my clothes and that’s including my walk-in closet. Sometimes I forget what clothes I have so when I actually go into a closet- it’s like shopping for me. I found this super pretty dress that I think I have only worn once and it’s still in brand new condition. I bought it at Cache years ago and didn’t even think to bring it back out!

This color sure makes you look tan!!!
I had no idea how petite friendly this dress was and was shocked when I put it on! And this is off the rack- no alterations at all!
Dress: Cache Coal dress- size Petite (similar HERE and HERE)
Shoes: Nine West Nude Pumps– size 5
Purse: Louis Vuitton Alma handbag
Necklace: Multi-brown pearl necklace (similar HERE and cheaper HERE)




The cut on this dress is perfect for petites. I haven’t shopped there for many years because it’s a lot of formal dresses there but I have found 2 cute dresses for my wardrobe and this is one of them. Thank goodness I didn’t donate this one! Whew!
Coral is so pretty for Spring and Summer…..
This dress is fitted but not so tight that it would be not work appropriate. It’s pretty sexy for work but I’m the boss so I can get away with it:)
See below how you can make this outfit more conservative just by adding a cardigan.
I always get cold no matter how hot it is so I never leave home w/out a cardigan. Here is an Aqua Cashmere ruffled cardigan in cream. I first saw this on Extra Petite’s post here. I liked it so much that when I saw it on online at Bloomie’s- I waited until the price dropped and they were having their 30% off- I nabbed it! it’s a girl size LARGE which is what EP reviewed. Thanks to her great taste- I have 2 beautiful Aqua girls cashmere cardigans to my collection! Click HERE for a similar version of a cream cashmere ruffled cardigan.
Was $88, then $62, dropped to $42 plus 30% off + 10% for signing up = $26.46 (for cashmere? I had no choice but to get it). I got it so cheap because it’s no longer winter! I got both of my cashmere’s a Bloomie’s well after the season. I really lucked out AGAIN because both pieces were the last and in the size I needed which was a girl’s large. I’m still shocked!
I love the ruffle detail and how can I resist anything cashmere? It’s 100% cashmere so it’s so soft. I don’t think I can buy any more sweaters that isn’t cashmere!
Aqua girls is so great because they have the adults version but for twice as much. And for petite’s- a girls large is a perfect fit!

  1. @Kristy- I know I wear my nude peep toes so much- I definitely got my money's worth 🙂 And yes they are VERY comfortable! The first day I wore them- the back of my heel hurt but the 2nd time on- they were super comfy 🙂 Best nude pumps I have owned!

  2. Oh wow…you were able to find that cardigan too! The sleeves weren't right on me, but I'm really glad that it fits you and that you got it at such a bargain.

    I've never popped into a Cache…do they sell an in-house brand, or a collection of other brands? And what size is that? It fits so well.

  3. @PAG- I know..can you believe how lucky I was to find those two cashmere sweaters? I was so excited 🙂 The Cache dress is a size PETITE. I'm still shocked at how well it fits. I have had it for so many years! The two dresses I have from there are both Cache brands but I do believe they carry other brands as well. It's been so long since I've been in a store- after wearing this dress…it will definitely make me want to go and see what else they have. I know they carry ALOT of formal dresses to0 🙂

  4. I'm so jealous of your 4 closets! Lol… hubby is always complaining that I take over all our closet space.

    Another lovely well-fitting dress as always 🙂

  5. Four closets- wow! That is amazing. I unfortunately have to share one puny closet with my husband! I love that dress- that is such a gorgeous color.

  6. I LOVE this look! You and I have very similar measurements too, though my hips are bigger than yours (can you say, bubble butt?). Lol. Anyway, I love the looks you put together! Here's hoping I can finally find some clothes that fit me! Thanks for all the great info!

  7. I LOVE this dress!! Everything about it, from color, to how it fits you, I find this to be the perfect outfit!! It's chic, professional, AND sexy haha.

  8. If you ever decide to sell your old work clothes in a blog sale, please let me know about it first!!!! I love everything you wear!!! You look soo incredible! Your figure is insane! I wish I had a figure like you!

  9. @April- you are way too sweet 🙂 And yes you definitely will be the first to know if I have a blog sale. I never even thought to do that- great idea!!!!

  10. I love this look 🙂 Very jealous of your 4 closets and as April said, your amazing figure!! xx
