If you’ve been following my blog for a while, I’m sure you’ve been able to tell that I don’t wear bold colors too often. Over the years, my style has changed and I’ve transitioned into creating a wardrobe with more neutral pieces that can easily be mixed and matched. I defiantly don’t have anything yellow (unless you count my prom dress lol) and nothing pleated like this either (it always makes me look overweight) so why was I drawn to this dress?
When I purchased it, I thought for sure that I would try it on at home, absolutely hate it and return it – yet the complete opposite happened. I fell in love with it! It’s surpassingly a flattering dress, hides my food baby after a big dinner, and love the way it swings as I walk around. It’s currently on sale at Zara for $40 and one of my best purchases of the summer. So far, I’ve worn it on the cruise, in Vegas and also to the office. Just make sure to wear wedges with it if you’re petite like me since it hits right on the knee and can look a bit boxy and overwhelming.
What are some of your unexpected purchases for the summer?
