This past Friday I attended a friends wedding. I'm a girl, so of course I've been thinking about what I could wear to the wedding for months. A chance to dress up a little fancier than normal is too exciting, right?! I think so at least. Anyways, with the wedding being in October, I knew I wanted to wear a longsleeve dress (even though it was fairly warm so I didn't need sleeves at all). Specifically one with a floral print. I searched the internez up and down, and for probably 2 months I kept coming back to this dress. The style was perfect and the floral was perfect. But if you know me or have followed this blog for any length of time (or even just have read my blog title ;) you know that I'm not one to just order a dress for 40 bucks! Finally a couple weeks ago I decided to take the plunge. I allowed myself to splurge for this beat. I even paid extra for shipping to make sure it was here in a decent time. I'm so happy I did, because I'm seriously IN LOVE with this dress! It's soooo me. I can't wait for something else to come up so I can wear it again. I may even try to dress it down with my cognac boots... how do you think I should style it next?
Danielle, that dress is adorable!! I'm going to a wedding this weekend and when I was looking for a dress, I wanted something with love sleeves but I couldn't find anything :( you look awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt would be absolutely perfect for fall with boots, maybe even boots and leggings when it gets really cool. The floral is a great fall floral and you look fabulous with it!
ReplyDeletethis dress is gorgeous!!! totally worth the splurge, I think!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore this dress! It's so great when you're happy with your splurges! I would think you could pair this with a utility jacket?! I've been looking for a dress with sleeves for months, too, but have yet to find one I loooove.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty dress and you totally deserve a splurge once in a while. This would look great dress down with a denim jacket and boots like you mentioned.

I love this dress, Danielle! What a beautiful print, and it looks amazing on you! I love the idea of dressing it down with cognac boots. I bet it would look cute with a denim jacket over it...or a vest of some sort??
