A Sheer Thing

An ode to all things sheer and see through because, well, because I said so! Okay, also because I do love me some sheer clothing. I little touch of sheer to any outfit always seems like the right choice, especially in today's case. I got my pretty little hands on this open crocheted and unlined Missoni maxi numba and it sat in my closet for months as I searched high and low for the just right under garment to pair underneath. Finally, I noticed I actually had my trusty Rag & Bone slip dress to throw underneath and let me tell you, pure perfection. A little coverage on top, a bunch of sheer on the bottom...works for me!
 Dress: Missoni Vest: Rachel Rachel Roy Cuff: White House Black Market Shoes: Ash Sunnies: Chanel
I adore this maxi even more because of the camel top and rose colored bottom color blocking scheme. The colors work so well together and will be perfect worn right into fall. I'm thinking Rag & Bone Newbury booties, a sleek All Saints leather jacket, and hell, why not throw a fur vest on top too. Chic!
For the first time in a long time, I decided to keep my accessories (yes, arm candy included) to a minimum as I didn't wanted to distract from the beautiful and intricate pattern of the dress; it speaks volumes. Missoni pieces are always to beautifully made and the intricate patterns (especially those zig zags) get me every time.
What's your favorite sheer thing piece in your closet?
