Hi loves,
Isn’t this dress the prefect dress for fall? If you remember my Bella V try on session, you probably know my obsession with this dress. Let’s be real, its everything and more!! When we brought this dress to our store, I never thought it will fit my short frame. Happy to report it fits like a glove. There is no way my petite frame is going to prevent me from rocking a midi dress 😉
I’m sure you’re probably tired hearing me talk about wrap style pieces… but it seems like everything I’ve been getting lately is wrap inspired. So its kinda impossible I don’t raved about it. I’ll try to keep it simple. The wrap detail makes this dress super sophisticated with a little sexiness to the mix.
Of course plaid is a huge print that everyone loves for fall, but this dress is a little more special with the embroidery details. Adds enough spark to take this dress to the next level. I love the colors in the embroidered with hints of blush and blue. I needed to add some pink tones to this look to make the embroidered details pop more. Since fall can be very unpredictable in the northeast a leather jacket seemed ideal for this look. It creates a nice feminine, edgy look. Unfortunately, my jacket is old, but I’ve linked similar ones down below. I added open toe heels to help balance this perfect dress. A great style tip for petite ladies rocking a midi style dress, always add an open toe shoe. Helps your legs appear longer and doesn’t overwhelm your frame! I went with my favorite sunnies and a blush bag to finish this look.
What is your prefect dress for fall?
What are your weekend plans? There was so much happening this week I am ready for the weekend. It started with me feeling like crap after some sinus issues. All I wanted was to crawl in my bed. For those mamas out there I’m sure you can relate to the chaos that happens when we don’t feel good… life still goes on. We don’t technically punch out or get sick days. So I’m exhausted! Looking forward to sleeping in tonight. Have a great weekend babes,

This dress was made for you! You look beautiful and I love the embroidery on it. It’s the little details, right?! I hope you feel better soon. I thought I had allergies past two weeks. I never used to but where we live most people develop them so I figured ok, just allergies. Nope, I got walking pneumonia and it’s just tough trying to get it together while also being super! Lol So I am with you. Get better and I’ll do the same. Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

what a great dress and this week we match as I am wearing the pants to your dress. Great taste I guess
I just talked about how well you wear wrap tops on the blog today. I love this style on you so keep showing it. The embroidery detail didn’t pop for me right away but it’s absolutely gorgeous and gives this dress a classy and feminine side. Have a great weekend and hopefully you are feeling better.
