But Stacy decided it could be more versatile. She found a couple of dressy options in my closet during our <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/category\/wardrobe-therapy\/\" target=\"_blank\">wardrobe therapy project<\/a>, but she wanted to make the skirt more casual for my informal dinner, hence the loaned sweater. Stacy knew I would like the sweater because it has the kind of <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/2012\/11\/stacy-lomman-wardrobe-therapy-outfits-1-and-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">feminine flourish<\/a> I like, thanks to two decorative buttons and ribbon.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18866\" style=\"width: 518px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18866\" class=\" wp-image-18866\" alt=\"buttons\" src=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/buttons.jpg\" width=\"508\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/buttons.jpg 3264w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/buttons-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wendybrandes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/buttons-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18866\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A closer look at the buttons.<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Combining the skirt with the chunky platform loafers was obviously Stacy&#8217;s idea too. I never would have gone there on my own, but I wound up thinking an edgy look was so much better than the &#8220;pretty&#8221; shoe I would have chosen. Another remarkable aspect of this outfit? There&#8217;s no black in it! Amazing.
