Flower Power

Dress - c/o Lovelywholesale.com / Belt - Old Navy (old) / Sandals - Nine West (old, similar here and here) / Necklace - unknown (gifted)

I pulled this dress out of the box, and Jeff said I was going to look like a total flower child.  I don't usually go for flow-y dresses like this that lack a lot of shape.  A dress without a defined waist falls straight down from my chest, which makes me look huge.  I decided to give this fun dress a try anyway because I loved the sleeves and the floral pattern, and went with the old standby of belting it.  For curvier girls, I've found that wider belts work better on dresses like this because they add more definition.  Dresses with structure tend to look better with skinnier belts since there is already a defined waistline built in, and a wider belt may change the shape of the dress.

Chambray & Floral

Chambray - Target / Skirt - Daisy Fuentes for Kohl's (super old) / Booties - Steve Madden (old, similar) / Belt - Target (somehow even older) / Necklace - Stella & Dot / Bracelet - LC Lauren Conrad (similar)

This skirt is one of those things that's been in my closet forever.  I often forget it exists, but whenever I find it again I remember how much I love it.  I actually used to have a shirt in the same print and would occasionally wear them together - yikes!  I last wore it with stripes last spring.  With the warmish weather we had last weekend (ahem, 50 degrees) I was dying to wear something springy, and the florals were calling my name.

I'm starting to get really excited for this weekend because my mom and sister are coming into the city for more wedding dress shopping!  I'm crossing my fingers I can find the one this time.  Unfortunately I'm also having flash backs to prom dress shopping, which took trips to about seventeen different stores before settling on one I didn't really love.  No settling this time!

Ensemble: Almost Anniversary

This is what I wanted to wear for my anniversary with the boo last week:

Dress - LC by Lauren Conrad (old, similar here) / Shoes - Nine West (old, similar here) / Bracelets - Loft (old, similar here)

Unfortunately it ended up being cold and rainy that day, so I ended up rocking a sweater dress and tights instead.  Sorry chiffron, I promise your day will come!

To celebrate, we went out for Japanese and then went to see Book of Mormon.  You know, something super romantical.  Book of Mormon was amazing!!  It was literally the most entertaining show I've ever been to.  Seriously.  "I Believe" has been stuck in my head all week, and I keep giggling to myself about it.  Have you seen it?

Right now I'm loving everything floral and bright.  Florals?  For spring?  I know, I know, I'm an innovator.
