It's so easy to get dressed in the summer isn't it? A cute little dress and you are set!
What I'm Wearing:Dress: BCBG
Belt: Nordstrom
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
Hair and makeup was bare and unfussy that day. I just didn't feel like getting all made up, which is a rare day for me. I love to do my hair and makeup but that day I just wanted to put on a dress and be done. Also because the sun is too high in the morning, we have started to take pictures after work so this is what I look like after a long day of work. Not as perky as I am in the mornings. :)
I did clip my hair back with a pretty purple bow that I got from Hot Topic. Yes! Hot Topic! A few weeks ago we were out at dinner and I was telling my husband that I needed to get my sister a tiara for her bachelorette party. I had no idea where to go when he was like, "How about Hot Topic?" and he pointed to it right across the street from where we were eating. I was skeptical, why would they have a tiara? But we walked in and checked out the hair accessories and there it was a rack full of tiaras! I picked out a pretty pink one for her and then noticed all the cute hair bows they had so picked out these two.

ReplyDeletelove this look. that purple bow is too cute! i'm so jealous of the nice summery days seattle has been getting lately...i hope summer comes to the east coast soon.
ReplyDeleteadorabella.
ReplyDeleteFabulous look! I've found that those little girl Etsy shops have cute hair clips too!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this. I love cinching dresses with cute belts to add more shape and cuuuurves =)
ReplyDeleteSo cute!! I have been pleasantly surprised with Hot Topic's hair accessories every once in awhile. Love the bows and the dress is precious. Looks like Seattle has been a lot sunnier than Chicago lately... shouldn't this be opposite?? Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteADORABLE! ...a huge fan of little belts! love this on your :)
ReplyDeleteYou look AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteBelt always adds up either shape or sassy-ness for the whole look, I tend to add belts with anything flow-y.
The hair clips are so cute!
I LOVE BCBG!!! But I couldn't imagine the dress without the belt you chose!!! Really flattering!
ReplyDeleteHope all is well!!!

(Oh, and you look fabulous...)
You look soooo cute!! Love the belt and love the hair bows! Its so fun when you happen upon an unexpected little somethin somethin! I wish I knew how to get your feet to grow...NO...the Loubies to shrink.
ReplyDeleteI love you girl! Thanks for always having my back!
OH and that's you AFTER WORK? Gorgesous, I'm Jels. I look horrific until I'm in my comfy pants with a glass of wine. I hope your eye is better?! xoxo
Gorgeous, I meant. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteClassy dress. U look so amazing!
ReplyDeleteXoXO
I love the outfit, you look great!
ReplyDeleteYou look totally cute.
ReplyDeleteThat dress looks really light for a tweed...great for summer. It would look cute with a skinny red belt too. Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I'm a new reader to your blog and just wanted to say how fantastic it is.
ReplyDeletelove the outfit, so cute and classy!
ReplyDeletejust wanted to tell you i bought 4 of those jcrew tissue tees and LOVE them! i want to get more!
Kelly- thank you girl! i owe you an email! will catch up with you tonight :)
ReplyDeletechyyfire - thanks for your suggestion! the problem is that my foot just slides forward so that my heel doesn't even touch the back, so heel grips don't work either.
L.A. Daze - thank you so much for your comment! I hope it's not your last :) will check out your blog as soon as I get a chance!
Onada - thank you! who doesn't love the Loubies right? ;) haha
Chessa - you are always too kind. :)
Kristin - thank you! I have looked at some of those Etsy shops, I wonder how big the clips are tho? my hair is so thick I think little girl clips would hold about 3 strands of my hair!
Lily G. yes, belts are the best!
Nikki - I think we've been lucky with the weather the past few weeks! It's a bit overcast today though.
Maegan - thanks!
ReplyDeleteMrs. Zeus - sassy-ness is a must! hehe
Kelley - BCBG makes the best little dresses don't they?
Liz - I think I always look better after a glass of wine too. ;)
janettaylor, Heidi, WendyB - thank you ladies!
the new black - I need a thin red belt! I have a thick one, but thin would be really cute!
The Professional Bridesmaid - thank you for visiting! hope you come back! :)
eri - Yay! glad you like the tees as much as me!
you look sooooo adorable!!! hot topic? who knew!!! actually, I'll bet you could have found a really cute patch there too lol!
ReplyDeleteI really, really love the dress...the neckline is so fab! I have a pair or two of shoes that I need foot petals in too...hate that!
xo
oooooooooh Tiffany...thank you for posting the giveaway!!!! xo
ReplyDeletecan I use that adorable little graphic you made?!
love you tons..A
I adore the whole outfit.
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous!
that dress is fantastic! I love the addition of a metallic belt! I've been needing one for a while; I think it adds a nice touch to cardigans and dresses and helps make everything look a lot more pulled together.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I have to agree with you on the skinny metallic belts.. I own one and it's practically being worn out because I use it so much :D
ReplyDeleteI love this "boring" outfit! BCBG rarely fails.
ReplyDeleteAdorable!You look so good in dresses!I'm sure lots will want to buy these amazing louboutin if you don't want them!
ReplyDeleteAww you look sooo cute (as usual!) Love the dress & accessories. The bow clips are the perfect touch!
ReplyDeletelove the dress and with those shoes of course!
ReplyDeleteyou are looking sexy and sweet and fabulous!
ReplyDeleteand when shoes are not fitting right they drive me bonkers! b a h!
i really like this dress. i'm in the market for more 'girly' pieces [dresses & such] and i'm constantly reminded of you....using you for some inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteHot Topic? No way! You look adorable as always!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress on you! :] It's 10x beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I just hate that too! I ALWAYS find a pair of the most gorgeous pair of shoes but they are either too BIG or too SMALL. x_x
I'm going through almost the same exact thing! I have these sandals from Urban Outfitters that I've only worn a couple of times and they are super-tight on me feet now, so I'm trying to sell them. :]
And the bows are super-cute, also! (:
I was actually surprised to hear you got them from Hot Topic; I'd never had the guts to walk inside those stores; the people who work there just always scared me a little. :]
xooooxoxo
great outfit-- my sister always have shoe fit trouble (she swears her foot is a 6 3/4 size) and she has a lot of lock making big shoes a bit snugger with dr scholl's gel heel pads, not sure what the actual name of the product is, but do check it out before you part ways with such lovely shoes!
ReplyDeleteyou look so cute!!!! love the grey with the royal blue bow on your hair and of course the fab shoes!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! I'm always looking for dressier office options that are still cute and professional. And Hot Topic--who knew?
ReplyDeleteOh I have the shoe problem too! It's frustrating - I swear that my feet shrink in winter too...I've resorted to putting full insoles in =(
ReplyDeleteI love the dress, it's suitable for work yet still a fresh (and very flattering) change from the suits!
what is this Revitalash you speak of?!?!? ....it's really working? I must check it out! ...also that atlantis pendant lamp below is blowing my mind!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the dress! YOU ARE ADORABLE!! ahh and those HAIRCLIPS!! HOW FABULOUS!!
ReplyDeleteOh the bows are very cute, though I personally probably wouldn't wear one. BUT you look great with them SRSLY. <3
ReplyDeleteyou look absolultely adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love this look! You look simply adorable and I'm loving the Louboutins!
ReplyDeleteThis dress is super cute on you. I love how the little bow completes the outfit.
ReplyDeleteAw so cute! Sometimes simple is best :)
