The Simple LBD

The older I get, or I really should say, the more mature I get (lol) the more simple I get. Less is more you could say! I remember hearing my mom say that she just wanted to be comfortable when she dresses, and I never thought that I could ever give up a cute pair of shoes, or a cute top, or whatever….in order to be comfortable! I always go for cuteness over comfort. But I can feel that shifting a bit! THIS dress can do both of those though. CUTE and COMFY and can look so different depending on what you wear with it. It’s from Covered Perfectly. During the summer I LOVE wearing dresses over anything else. This one was so fun to wear with my VINCE tennies and a woven JCrew belt tied around the waist. I bloused the dress to shorten it a bit, and added some fun jewelry and that’s about it. A hat would have been adorable too! But then what about wearing it in a dressier way? Easy as ever! Heels, or long cardigan over the top, a leather jacket, blazer, or  for another casual look throw on a baggy crew neck sweater! So good going in to fall with some booties! THIS is such a great dress to pack in your bag for many looks while out traveling! You will definitely get some mileage out of this dress!!!

I’ve linked for you here a similar sort of belt that would be so cute for this dress  (in two colors) and so many other things! Also, I get emails daily about what kind of hair products I use. I’ve linked them here for those that are interested. I’ve been using the paste and wax  mixed together, for a while now. They give me just the right amount of texture without feeling sticky! The spray is awesome for a lighter hold!

    1. Hi Tamme, thank you so much for your comment! It’s interesting how sometimes we lose touch with fashion the older we get. Whether it’s interest, time, health, or really not knowing what to do, we sure are missing out on a lot of fun!
