Best Dressed | 2017 - rachel lately

One of my favorite things to do at the end of the year is to take a look back at the top 10 outfits that y’all liked the most & be able to watch my style progress. I counted the amount of outfit posts I did this year, and it’s exactly 1 more than last year (31 total), so… progress!! Ha. This year I was definitely more playful with my wardrobe; I tried new trends I used to think I couldn’t pull off like culottes, backless loafers, wide leg jumpsuits, bell sleeves, & shiny leather jackets. I stuck to my favorite neutrals throughout the year, but every so often threw a fun print into the mix; and as you can tell from below, I took my fringe suede bucket bag almost everywhere with me (and still do). Some things that haven’t changed? I’m still obsessed with anything off-the-shoulder, my style is at its best during the summertime, and I’m still a minimalist shopper (meaning, I don’t really do it at all anymore unless I genuinely need something). My goal for next year is to publish even more outfit posts for y’all, so we’ll see how that plays out… Which look of 2017 is your favorite?
