Happy Monday! I’m back in Florida and I had a great long weekend in DC. It was so much cooler there and that was refreshing. I really need to make an effort to go away more often. My weekend was also very chill at times, I even had the time to do some reading which is very relaxing to me. Thanks to my preparedness all my posts for this week are scheduled, so that’s one less thing I need to worry about. I do however need to get my diet back on track, because it was a little crazy these past few days.
Now about this dress, honestly I want to buy it in all the colors and prints possible (black, white, pink, print). Here I am wearing it in a petite 2 and it fits like a dream. The best thing about this dress is that it can easily be dressed down with a denim jacket and sandals or dressed up with heels and a pretty cross-body bag. I am totally planning on wearing it to work as well, all I need is a blazer and cute flats.
My “Pick of the week” is this adorable tasseled stripe maxi dress from Loft. I’ve seen it in stores but I didn’t have the time to try it on. In person it is gorgeous, I’m 5’4 so I will probably try it in petite to avoid getting it hemmed.

Oh now that’s a dress I’d love to have, what a beautiful garment. Nicely worn.
Looks beautiful! Is the top part see through? Will I have to wear a strapless bra?
the eyelet part is see through, I did wear mine with a strapless
