Dress (under $100!) // Earrings // Flats (budget-friendly pair here) // Sunglasses // Purse (similar) // Bracelet
Have you ever experienced the feeling of when you see something and now within an instant that you need it. That was the feeling I had when I saw this rickrack shirtdress a few weeks ago during the Shopbop sale.
Okay, so it may be a dress for us shorties, because I’m only 5’3 and still find it to be a little short, but y’all if you want a chic dress that will receive all the compliments, this is totally it!
Plus even more points for the drop waist, because I’ve figured out this dress cut is super flattering and forgiving. Oh and did I mention it’s under $100? Have I sold you on it yet?
There’s something about the rickrack shirtdress embellishment that reminds me of a sophisticated take on a dress I had as a little girl. Rickrack just brings a smile to my face quite frankly.
The weather was beyond gorgeous in Houston yesterday and has me so thrilled for spring. I actually wore this rickrack shirtdress with a pair of heels (this pair) for dinner in New Orleans. I thought it would look even more short with heels, but my mom assured me it did not. I’ll take that mom seal of approval!
Have any fun weekend plans? We don’t and I am beyond thrilled. Just trying to finish up my taxes today so I can relax on Saturday and Sunday. Hope you have a great end to your week!
That’s a beautiful dress! I love the colours and the fit, it’s really pretty.
I love the embroidery on this! Especially with the detail around the cuffs. You are adorable!
I am beyond obsessed with this dress! It’s seriously one of the cutest I’ve ever seen.
