There’s a funny story to go along with these pictures…
I had actually brought this lovely green dress from Saffron Raw Threads to wear for the shoot but fate intervened when a gentleman bumped into me, spilling his coffee all over the dress. Rather than waste precious time with my favorite NYC photographer Lydia who was visiting for the Summer, I ran into H&M and threw together a new black & white look.
Et voila!
Graphic Print Dress – H&M {Similar styles here, here & here}

I have to confess that I really enjoyed how this look turned out. I like the combination of black & white graphics with the bold, colorful clutch – It’s a visually interesting and eye-catching combination.
And another confessions? I’ve worn this dress TO DEATH since this day. It goes with everything and I absolutely love it.
Have YOU had a major fashion disaster like this happen to you?
Share! 🙂

Thank you! 🙂
It’s safe to say that such a mishap worked out in your favor! You look spectacular, Caity, and the leopard clutch really POPS against the black canvas of your outfit. I also love those shoes!
Thank you Casey!
Oucch.. that sounds pretty bad. Thank God there was a store nearby haha.. In my city, all the big stores can be found in the shopping malls. So if “fate intervenes” well, you’re out of luck hahaha.. But I love this so much too. Blame my eyesight for asking, but is it sequin? Because it’s looking fabulous! <3
It was a happy accident since I love this new dress! 🙂
Well, I adore this black and white combo, so I guess it’s a great accident!
Glad you like it!
I like your earing 🙂
Thank you!
I’d have smacked that gentleman to hell and back if he spilt his coffee all over my dress, which is why I admire you for staying cool and calm under duress. You go girl!
Haha, I was tempted! 🙂
You look great gurrl! I love the little touch of leopard print, RAWR!
Haha. Glad you like it, thank you!
I love the burst of colour that comes from your clutch! Great save!
Thanks Alia!

I always say “everything happens for a reason” and you look spectacularly chic due to the coffee spill!
