Tracy Dress from Monroe and Main 1

Fall is here!  Well, it’s almost here weather-wise, and it is definitely here fashion-wise!  As the weather starts to cool and the leaves begin to change color, it’s time to add some color to our wardrobes too!  It’s the perfect time of year to add some fun pops of rich color to your clothing to make bold statements or add chic accents.  This can be something as small as a statement necklace or a richly colored bag, to something all over like a deep red or purple dress.

I’m starting out my fall wardrobe with a subtle blend of color in the Tracy Dress from Monroe and Main. The elegant pattern features a deep purple color that stands out on the muted gray fabric.

Can I say how much I love this dress!  First of all I’m thrilled with the fit.  It is nice and curve-hugging, but definitely not too va-va-voom.  And it is extremely comfortable!  We’re talking p.j. worth comfort.  I could sleep in this thing!

One of my favorite parts of the dress is the side gathers.  It adds such a note of interest and adds to the flattering shape as well.

The other big positive of the Tracy dress by Monroe and Main is that it is versatile enough to go from dressy to casual.  I went from the more dressy, business-meeting-worthy look above, to a more casual out for the day look below.

For the more casual work, I complimented the Tracy dress with Embroidered Ankle Boots and a Studded Leather Side Bag, both from Monroe and Main.  And I’ll even be ready when that extra-cold winter weather hits, simply by adding a long black sweater to the ensemble.

The Tracy Dress is made of Rayon/Spandex and is machine washable.  It has a length of 43″.

    My favorite piece I am finding in the Monroe and Main catalog for fall is the Flutter cuff shirt. As in this blog post, the clothing from Monroe and Main seem to feature clothing with versatility you may not find in other stores. This flutter cuff shirt could go with so many outfits I already own as well.

    My favorite piece of the Fall Collection is the Slice and Dice Dress. I am always looking for items that will make me feel slimmer and I think the Slim colorblock panels would work wonders to trim my silhouette into lean proportions.

    I like the Vanessa Surplice Top in black. I love tunic tops and the asymmetrical hem on this one caught my eye. It looks like it would go perfectly with jeans for a casual day, or dressed up with a skirt or pants for church or work.

    I came *this* close to passing this giveaway up because I didn’t think it would have any clothes that fit me since it looks so trendy. Surprise! They have plus size! Yay! Such cute stuff, so it thrills me that this would even be an option. I absolutely love the angled cut of the Print O Print Tunic.

    I love the Vanessa Surplice Top in teal because it looks flattering. I love the style, color, and cut. The 3 quarter sleeves keep your arms warm, but not too hot like full length sleeves.
