Happy Monday, ladies! The weather finally turned around here in Athens. After a week of rain, we had an absolutely beautiful weekend. To be fair, I missed the rain, because I was in Mexico last week. So, I can’t complain too much. But even if it is dreary where you are, today’s outfit will bring a little light and bright to your day. We’re stepping into Spring today with some beautiful colors with an Ann Taylor sheath dress and tweed outfit.
Also, we’ve got a new entry into our real vs. steal series. Today: Prada sunglasses.
Ann Taylor sheath dress
Today’s outfit couldn’t be simpler: I’ve paired a yellow Ann Taylor tweed jacket with a matching sheath dress. I love simple elegance and class, and
Confession: as of a few days ago, both jacket and dress were in stock. As of today, they’re sold out. But when life doesn’t give you a lemon dress… you pivot. I’ve pulled together some yummy Ann Taylor jackets that look fantastic with similar dresses. You can find the jackets here, here, and here. And similar sheath dresses here, here, and here.
If you absolutely love this jacket and dress, make sure to bookmark the page. Ann Taylor has been restocking periodically.

Tweed jacket
Tweed jackets are in this year. Honestly, they’re in every year—a true timeless classic. Pair them with a dress, slacks, or jeans. You really can’t go wrong. I went matchy-matchy today. But a colorful jacket like this one would pop with a neutral base: just imagine a black or white sheath dress. Elegant.

Wow! Now that’s an outfit! Elegant, timeless, you look fabulous!!!
The light yellow dress and blazer are stunning on you! Unfortunately I cannot wear yellow. Makes me look yellow. I am on the waitlist for the soft violet dress.
I love this style. It’s what I wore when I worked and had meetings to attend. Now, I no longer have a need for an outfit like this, which is too bad but great for the pocketbook!
Beth, you are absolutely stunning in this ootd. Stunning wearing the jacket, stunning part deux without the jacket. Pure class indeed! Appreciate all you do 💛
What a GORGEOUS spring outfit! This reminds me of the Chanel jacket (even though it has a collar) and outfits that Jackie “O” always wore…all true classics. This is how we always use to dress for Easter! In fact, years ago, I had a very similar sheath dress and jacket in pink. I always love this look. As beautiful today as ever.
What a lovely outfit this would be for Easter! After two years, we are finally return to our normal activities, so I really want to dress up for church services this year.
Beth, you look simply stunning in this quintessentially Jackie Kennedy ensemble. I had a dress in 1969 when I was a teen that looks just like this elegant sheath including the gold buttons at the waist. Mine had a little chain connecting the two buttons in front, but otherwise the same, most likely a different fabric. One of your most gorgeous outfits ever, IMHO. 🙂
