As I mentioned in this blog post, I had a few dress options for the rehearsal dinner in Saint Lucia and ended up going with this maxi dress. I love it because it's actually something you can dress up or down depending on the occasion and is the most perfect summer dress out there.
This is prime time J. Crew and I know I will own this dress for years to come. It's one of those dresses I see myself wearing as a mom to summer cookouts just to show how fabulous I can be. I know it's such a weird thing to think about, but that's my life.
I know a lot of friends who got this dress and had it hemmed (it is VERY long) but I actually found the perfect shoes to wear with it (these) that as you can see from the above, made it the perfect length. For reference, I'm 5' 6" and wearing a size six. The dress also has pockets and adjustable straps in the back that you tie which help make the dress fit better!
It was perfect for the night as well as being a great repellent for bugs near my legs. I'm so happy I went with this dress (and pulled the trigger on it). It's just so perfect!!!
P.S. This is TOTALLY off topic but I'm about to Spring clean a few bigger ticket items and I thought I would offer it to loyal readers first (ones that actually read here). I'm selling:
