Welcome to Visible Monday #37! If you want to participate, it’s so easy: just go to the bottom of this post for the simple how-to.
I really enjoy wearing this simple Eileen Fisher knit dress. It’s so effortless, easy-care, and a great backdrop for accessories. Lucky for me, I discovered it at a consignment store during my NYC trip . . . for $30. Sometimes, the shopping goddesses smile. : >
Today I chose a vintage scarf, tied willy-nilly (I need to study those scarf tutorials!) as a colorful accent. My so-cheap bangle bracelet added more color and I wore my new tiger-print flats. I think the overall look is approachable, pulled together and age appropriate. For a more festive occasion, I’d replace the scarf with sparkly necklaces, and the flats with open-toe wedge heels.
Dress: Eileen Fisher; Scarf: eBay; Shoes: DKNYC |
I wouldn’t mind a bunch of these dresses, in navy, ivory, red and black! |

"Collection closed"???? but it's only noon PDT Monday!!
Criminy. Please let me know if you open it back up — I've got a doozy for you!
You look lovey, as always.
I love! that dress! I am going to have to look for something like that! It looks so comfortable. And I swear that I have the same bangle. 🙂
Good ol' Eileen. She really can make a dress, can't she? That's a fab silhouette on you, and SUCH a great price!
Patti, the outfit is perfect! Love, love the flats!
The dress fits you perfectly and I can see why you would want it in every color. The tiger flats are the perfect finishing touch.
Hello BAngele – I am not sure what's happening on your end, sorry. Once your URL is accepted, the cropping is an automatic procedure, and super-simple. Perhaps you could try on a different computer, or using a different browser? Sometimes that does the trick. Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you can get through!
You look just fabulous in this, Patti! I love that dress on you. I agree, it's hugely versatile. Adore the shoes too.
Thank you so much for doing Visible Monday – I've met so many awesome bloggers! Oh, and I don't seem to have had any issues with the pictures since we got a new computer, so I guess chalk that up to out-of-date tech.
Willy-nilly is my favorite way to style a scarf! That is a beautiful dress and looks lovely on you
what a great find on the dress. it looks really comfortable! but those shoes just take the cake. rawr 🙂
Hello, I want to be part of your Visible Monday but have no idea how to include a link to Not Dead Yet Style on my post. It would not accept my URL for some reason and even if it did how would I know how to crop a picture on my blog to send to you? Obviously I am new to this and on a slow learning curve.
I want to find something Eileen Fisher so bad!! This looks great on you and is just perfect for so many occasions. Great thrifting!! Internet has returned!!
Great find on the dress. I'm jealous of the tiger print flats!
The dress looks amazing on you!! I need a knit dress now.

That dress can be styled a 1000 ways for sure! Love it!
That's a great dress. I've been thinking I need a perfect plain one like this in black.
Patti–that dress is adorable on you!! It looks comfortable yet professional and calssy. And I am LOVING the tiger flats!!
Great Outfit Patti, love the little flats. I think artless scarf tying may be a genetic trait! One that I lack unfortunately.
I love the way you accessorice grey. Thank you, dear Patti.

Great dress! I love the flats…casual yet chic!
I hope you have a wonderful week Pattie!
great thrifting find – that dress is so flattering and versatile! i like the scarf too, even with the haphazard tie. i showed my mom how to do a very simple scarf drape the other day and she said "wait..thats it? but its so easy"
Bonjour! This is my first time adding to the fun of Visible Monday. What good timing too! I was able to upload my photo right next to Style N Season polka dot post too (love those turquoise beads with her shirt!).
That Eileen Fisher dress will definitely be a go-to piece…lots of versatility. It has great lines to it making it very flattering. ~~Bliss
As your blog title says, authentic and beautiful. I love your new flats!
a simple dress but so chic I like the colorful scarf, totally adds pizzaz. The loepard shoes are so adorable too. Thanks for hosting Patti, you look fabulous and so visible on a monday!

Cute, cute, and more cute! Especially those shoes. I really want some snazzy flats but all the ones I've tried just flop off my feet when I walk.
You look so sleek in this dress. it's a wonderful find and I love the shoes you chose to wear with it.
That dress fits you great! I like the tiger flats you have, a simple twist on the leopard print everyone is wearing.
Perfect! I'd be happy to have a wardrobe with this dress in an array of colours. You've accessorized it beautifully, classic, simple, but still creatively drawing the eye from point to interesting point.
Fabulous dress! Wish they'd reintroduce that style again. Your scarf looks great, like you did it on purpose.
What a beautiful dress and you look beautiful in it.
Hi Patti!
I have made it to Visible Monday!
You look lovely, i like your floral and anima print flats!

Great job on that dress! It's such a great silhouette and length! Hugs! ~Serene
Patti you look absolutely beautiful my dear!
Hi Patti!
I'm headed to NY at the end of the month; any thrifting hotspots you'd recommend? I really love the simplicity/flexibility of your dress. I'd enjoy seeing you accessorize it a bunch of different ways.
Love, Jean

Love this look on you Patti! Great dress, scarf and shoes.
What a find! You are going to get loads of mileage out of that dress. Very flattering on you, too.
