I love Built by Wendy.  Do any of you sew?  Have you seen her line with Simplicity patterns?  They’re great, and her sewing books are pretty great, too.  But if you don’t want to bother with sewing your own, you can always buy straight from Wendy.  She’s got a great line.  I think she’s got a lovely, simple style.  A little bit preppy, a little Audrey Hepburn, but with a modern vibe.  The dress on the bottom right is perfect.  I love a dress meant to wear with flats.

And yes, the bag is a diaper bag, but it’s cute! And come on… the outfit has to be at least a little bit practical… (running errands with a 3 month old who spits up all the time and has occasional blow outs, means I need to bring a lot of things with me!)
