Sartorial Compass: Michelle Williams, All Dressed

I'm sad to say that today is Michelle Williams' last day as Sartorial Compass, but this obviously won't be the last time you see her up here.  She's not showing any signs of slowing her style game down just yet.  The rest of the photos I have of her are from various events, and there are just too many cute dresses.  She loves white dresses, and looks amazing in them all, among others of course.  




If she hasn't at least inspired you to wear more cute dresses and be generally adorable, she has surely made you consider a pixie cut.  Can't wait to see her shine as a style star in the years to come!

Sartorial Compass: Michelle Williams, Gown Gorgeous

Michelle Williams has been gracing red carpets for a while now, but it wasn't until Brokeback Mountain that she really stepped up her red carpet game.  Below are a few of her best gown moments from years past.  Who could ever forget the mustard Vera Wang gown that made her the fashion icon that she is today. 

 Love her in color!!
 These gowns are so insanely gorgeous and ethereal.  

The dress in the center is Miu Miu from last years Met Gala, it fit her personality perfectly and physically fit her like a dream as well.

My Favorite Skirt, 3 Ways

Especially in this transitional weather I've noticed myself reaching for my black LNa maxi skirt multiple times a week.  Because I've been loving it so much, I've also needed to experiment with how I wear it.  Check out a few of my favorite springtime variations below.

The first outfit is the most obvious.  Skirt, tee & a topper.  In the summer months I wear this vest to death since I feel like it completes the outfit when worn with sun dresses.  
My second favorite way to wear this skirt is as a dress.  Then to bring it in at the waist, a much more flattering look for me, I tie a shirt up.

 I haven't actually put this look to the test yet but this is my way of dressing the basic jersey skirt up.  I tied it up at the bottom to create an assymetrical hem, and figured why not throw on my beautiful J.Crew heels?  

The skirt might be worn to shreds by the end of the summer, but it will be worth it!

Sartorial Compass: Michelle Willams, Shifty

The 60's inspired pixie cut that Michelle Williams has been rocking on and off for a while now, pairs perfectly with her love of the perfect shift dress.  Always easy going and simple, she looks effortlessly cool in each one.  
 In Victoria Beckham, Chloe and Erdem {I think}.  She wore the Chloe dress to the Independent Spirit Awards for Brokeback Mountain, I will never forget this dress, it is one of my favorite pieces of all time.  
 Black & white & mod all over.
Love the dress in the center so much!

I'm a bit too attached to my hair to ever go full out with a pixie cut, but she sure does make me question that, if only for just a minute.

P.S. Happy Mother's Day to the most wonderful, selfless woman I know!  Also to the most wonderful Grandma that a girl could ask for!
