I loved this outfit the day I wore it, but looking at these pictures, I really don't care for this outfit. Some outfits just don't photo well, including this one. And I think I just changed my mind about it. I really love this dress though, so maybe I'll try it again a different way this week.
How would you style this dress?
Also, I entered the Chippmuck.com's Expert Shopper Contest with my coral blazer outfit. Help me win by loving my look here! By the way, you can vote each day too. Please go vote :)
I don't see anything wrong with this outfit! I think it looks pretty. Maybe with a belt you could give it a little bit of a boost? :)

Super cute outfit, I love the blazer and dress together! And I feel the same way about A LOT of my outfits. I swear the mirror told me it was cute and then the pictures later, I'm like BAH this does not work and I look like a hot mess. But SERIOUSLY this is a cute outfit, I LOVE IT! And I think it photographs well :)
ReplyDeleteThat's the biggest issue I hear from fashion bloggers, that their outfit doesn't photograph well and now that I've started to do more fashion blogging, I get it. But I can only allow how something photographs make up like 10% of what I think of the outfit. This outfit looks amazing on you! It's so adorable! And you said you liked it all day, so you must have felt good about it - let that be your deciding factor instead! Also just got a chance to see your bridal shoots and OMG how BEAUTIFUL! <3

ReplyDeleteAre you serious? I love this outfit! I understand the feeling of outfits not photographing well. I hate when I take pictures after the day is done and see them only to have that "you mean I looked like *that* ALL day long?!" feeling. I think the way you styled it is just perfect- a pretty necklace, and a colorful cardi. I'd try it with a blazer, too. I'm not sure what the strap situation is, but you might be able to experiment with layering a shirt underneath? Or a scarf! Ah, the possibilities are endless :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm following you on bloglovin now :)
DeleteLove this outfit.. What about a cropped cardigan? Unless your like me, I hate those things! A belt around the dress and cardigan would be cute too! Can't wait to see how you style it next! :)
ReplyDeletei love the target dress! and that colorful layer on top! so cute

I just found your blog on Pinterest, and I'm SO GLAD. One, we have the same name :) Two, you love Lauren Conrad's clothing line (your coral blazer is fabulous). Three, you own the flats I wanted soooo badly from Marshall's, but they weren't in my size :(
