Casual Midi LBD

Marc by Marc Jacobs metallic bag
Albeit twisted bar necklace (c/o)

When I bought this black midi dress, I knew it'd be easy to glam up for a night out (post here), but I also liked the option of dressing it down with chill slip-on Chucks. Since the dress is a bodycon, I added a denim jacket to make it more daytime appropriate. Fun fact: this vintage Levi's denim jacket has belonged to my Husband since he was 6 years old!

Also, if you're interested, I'm currently having a $300 Net-a-Porter gift card giveaway on Instagram -- follow @heyprettything_ to enter!

    I love how simple (but still really cute!) this outfit it! I really need to invest in some Converse, too. Such a closet must have!

    I so wish I could pull off this length of a dress and sneakers combo. Everything about this outfit is so good!

    I love that midi dress! I'm a huge fan of simple pieces that you can easily dress up or down depending on your mood. I think it looks great the way you styled it with a denim jacket and converse.

    I've been opting a lot more for casual looks like this one lately. While I haven't committed to a dress quite so figure hugging yet, I've been loving loose dresses and denim jackets.
