Welcome to Visible Monday #161! If you want to participate, it’s so easy: just go to the bottom of this post for the how-to. Please be kind and leave a link to Not Dead Yet Style in your post.
A wrap dress is my go-to silhouette when I’m not sure what to wear. A well-fitting wrap, like this Karina Ruby, always feels good, looks polished and goes casual or dressy. I am medium dressy today, but I’ve also worn this dress over jeans and leggings, with oxfords.
The colorful jacket is my favorite Trina Turk, purchased on consignment (similar). It always surprises me how many outfits it “goes” with. Booties are Cydwoq, via eBay (sim), the necklace (sim) is thrifted, and the bracelet (sim) is from Bella’s wonderful shop.
Now, show us what you’re wearing, Visible Women!!
The guidelines to participate in the Visible Monday Link-Up are so simple!
- Whoever wants to can join in! Just compose a post that includes any outfit, accessory, piece of jewelry, hairstyle, cosmetic or other adornment that makes you feel more confident, alive and visible that day.
- Include a link to Not Dead Yet Style somewhere in your post.
- Go to the bottom of this post and click on the InLinkz button “Add Your Link”. It should open a new page.
- In the “Next Step”, you crop the pic (easy tool) you want to display, and you’re done!
Oh hey! Not Dead Yet Style has a Facebook page! Please check it out when you have a moment: Facebook Page.

Layering the colorful jacket over your wrap dress was a brilliant idea. You are more beautiful with every post.

You look great in your wrap dress! I have been wanting to try one, but so far, haven’t found one that calls to me.

Those booties, Patti!!! And you’re absolutely right, wrap dresses are the best thing next to sliced bread and hugs.

Oooh! I like that necklace!
Isn’t it funny that such a bold patterned coat goes with so much? I often find that with my bold prints.
You’re in NY right now? : ) Hope you are having a wonderful time!
You are looking extra radiant here.

amen!! totally agree 🙂 Southern Elle Style
I hear you loud and clear about the wonders of pulling on a wrap dress. I have yet to invest in a Karina one, but it’s on my radar.
This style of dress always looks good on you. And I really like how you wear that amazing Trink Turk jacket with it. Thanks for hosting, Patti. I brought dip this time.
Lookin’ lovely, my dear. Thank you again for the privilege of meeting you today. I had fun!
It was my complete pleasure and privilege! And thanks for the treat, xox. See you next trip, one hopes : >
Lovely dress; you look fabulous in it!
I have been searching for a new wrap dress. They are so flattering! You look lovely in this, and I adore the boots!
I do love your wrap dresses, so classic and pretty! 🙂
Wrap dresses look good on all women…they are great! Thanks for the link up as always, Patti!

You are getting more and more creative every time I see you, Patti. Luv the Cydwoqs with the dress. And that coat! Who would’ve thought, but it does look brilliant together. And I even saw it on you in person!!
You always do look amazing in a wrap style dress, Patti. Love the thrifted necklace with it too.
I love wrap dresses!!!

Yay, Patti, I love your new comment system, it’s cool!
Your Karina dress is really pretty and the Trina Truck coat is beautiful, not surprised it goes with so much as it is so bright and cheerful! The dress is perfect for this weather too as a great length and you can layer underneath it too!

I could just say Ditto Val…I too love the coat, and it goes beautifully with your dress. The Cydwoqs…definitely the hippest boots ever, and we west coasters, Val and I, consider ourselves pretty hip, LOL. I want a pair just so I can say the name over and over!
Thanks for hosting VM Patti! Always a pleasure to join in.
Wrap dresses are the best! A wrap dress is my go-to option, too, when I need an easy outfit. One-stop dressing at its best. And your dress is very pretty. Have a great week, Patti!
Love that coat! What a hot contrast to the cool blue of the dress. And the hippest boots ever! Definitely visible, you are, and an inspiration to the rest of us.
