Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge - No Black!

As you guys know, I was sick on Wednesday and didn't go to work - which made it a little hard to do Wednesday Wardrobe Challenge.
The challenge was "no black at all" which I almost pulled off - but I didn't have a slip that wasn't black and this wrap dress would show off a bit too much without one.
The outfit did get me some compliements at work - one of my workmates said I always looked nice because I'm always colour co-ordinated. Also my new glasses are here! I am rather taken with them and I've received lots of great comments about them from people and work and friends I've bumped into. I am rather glad I went with the red ones in the end. I'll be wearing them over the next two weeks then it will be back to the optometrist to see if my eye problems have improved.This necklace is brand new - I bought it from one of those one day deal websites - I've wanted one for the LONGEST time. I also wore my peacock ring, which people always think is super fancy. But actually I got it from Equipt for $3.

OUTFIT DEETS:
Dress - Second Chance fashion sale
Cardy & tights - Glassons
Shoes - The Big Shwop
Necklace - One day deal website
Ring - Equipt
Slip - Farmers

That wrap dress looks smokin' on you! I'm a big fan of the colour co-ordination in this outfit, and kudos to you for going no-black!

I second what Miss Peregrin said- WOW that dress is amazing on you. I've always wanted a name necklace, too, but I'm torn between mini dog tag style and laser cut plastic.

Those specs are AWESOME! Red is fun, I'm sure you'll find they work nicely in to your wardrobe. I'm getting laser eye surgery in a week but think I'll actually really miss my glasses...
