I should not be allow to eBay after certain hours. I’m not even kidding. I mean, this dress probably isn’t the *worst* thing that could have ended up in my mailbox, but it’s also not exactly something that *needed* to end up in my mailbox. It is quite pretty, though. I’ll give my late-night-zombie self a partial pass. I adore the print, although I could have done without the ruching at the waist. Sigh.
The biggest problem I have with this dress is finding something to wear it with. You would think it would be easy. Black, after all, is always a safe bet. Somehow, none of my eleventy million blazers looks smashing with the dress; they look ok, but … meh. The dress absolutely needs a topper, by the way, because the back is completely sheer. Oh, did I forget to mention that? #latenightzombieebayingatitsfinest
I ended up picking this old Nougat cardigan because the colour is pretty and goes well with the dress, and the rest of it is … unobjectionable as far as a style pairing goes. The shoes might push the whole thing into “gamine” territory (those bows!) but, dang it, I don’t wear them often enough so they had to stay. And the bag … oh, the bag. I still love it so. I wish it was more practical, but it’s one damn fine-looking bag.
I love this on you! I adore those shoes; look so dainty. What’s it about the bag that’s impractical? Maybe you’ve said before, but I can’t recall. The dress and sweater look great together!
It doesn’t have a long strap, which I prefer day-to-day. Also, I love the opening clasp for its aesthetic, but it’s a PITA to open and close when you’re on the go.
I love this outfit ! Also , I totally get the eBay obsession. That said , after spotting them on you I bought the mag bag and the poppy moulinette seours skirt on eBay ( took me a long time to hunt them down). They are both gorgeous pieces . Thanks 😃
Those are definitely keepers in my book. I’m glad you loved them.
Clearly we need to see the back of the dress!
And did I mention before that this hair length is the BEST on you? Because I really feel like it is.
Thank you! I think with an extra couple of inches, it would be perfect. I miss being able to pull it back.
I can’t show you the back of the dress because you would see my bra, haha. I don’t own any nice bralettes, which would be the only possibly cute option. Going with pasties or bra-less is not an option 😉
