Mrs. Pomeranz 50s Style Tulip Print Dress with Nude Peeptoe Heels

By
Happy happy Friday everyone! Since graduation was last week I figured it was time to share my graduation outfit with you guys. I wore the Mrs. Pomeranz tulip print dress I won from Calivintage a while back. It was such a pretty dress I decided to save it for a special occasion. (Plus I received it right when fall was rolling around and it's not exactly a fall/winter dress.)

I love the watercolor print and the perfectly matching red belt that came with it. The material feels nice and light for spring but high-quality. I got a lot of compliments on the dress throughout the day. I will say that the seam underneath my arm started coming apart and one of the loops on the buttons down the back came un-looped. They're easy fixes but were kind of disappointing when I hadn't even worn the dress more than 4 hours. The designs of these dresses are perfectly retro and gorgeous though.

I'll be sharing some other pictures from this day later on, but I wanted to highlight my dress in this post! You can check out the red lace Shabby Apple dress I wore two years ago for my undergrad graduation in this post.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Absolutely gorgeous dress! The multicolour buttons on the back are such a nice touch (as is the matching belt.. not enough dresses these days come with belts, I reckon!).

Sucks about the faults, you'd think retro-styled dresses would be a little more hardy than the usual stuff you can find in shops! Ah well, at least nothing major happened.

Very, very pretty! Bummer about the quality problems, though. That makes me side-eye a company really hard. I would be pissed if I bought a dress and that happened =/

I love the buttons down the back, shame they cam undone but at least you can fix them.

Good choice for graduation, I went for a classic navy colour, a little boring but I'm not big of dressy dresses.

This is undoubtedly my favourite look for yours. The dress is super stunning beyond any possible words. The print is incredible and the detailing of the individual coloured buttons at the back couldn't be more perfect.

Read your title as "with Nude People" and got weirdly excited, then suuuper dissapointed when no nekkie people were in these pictures. ;) bahahah, totally kidding!

Aaaah, that skirt is magical, Jamie! Seriously it's so puffy and magical and I love how there's red from your hair, then belt, then on that skirt. It's a nice trio of balance. :)

Botanical Fun

These pictures are from my outing to The State Botanical Garden of Georgia, which just so happens to be conveniently located about 8 minutes from my apartment. There were still a nice amount of flowers blooming so it was really pretty. I decided I needed to get more wears out of my pretty Steal the Game Show dress from Modcloth so I took some inspiration from other bloggers and wore it as a skirt! I actually really liked how this outfit turned out. Plus it was easy to walk around in all day because I wore nice, comfy Keds. dress (worn as a skirt): Modcloth.com blouse, belt, bag: thrifted cardigan: ann taylor loft; thrifted shoes: keds sunglasses: kohls earrings: forever 21 I quite enjoyed my brightly colored nails. They're China Glaze Papaya Punch with an accent nail of Electrify from the Capitol Colours collection. I've been loving having the whole Capitol Colours collection. Especially since it's Hunger Games themed. If there...

Work Outfit: Light Blue Jersey Knit Dress and White Block Heels

By

I'm a big fan of what I call "pajama dresses," which are really just jersey knit skater dresses . They're comfortable enough to sleep in, yet can look 100% put-together if styled nicely. That's exactly what I did with this light blue dress California-based shop Tobi sent me to style. (Someone even asked me why I was dressed so nice at the dog park! I told them I just came from work, of course.) For the debut of my newest pajama dress, I added my silvery beaded Stella and Dot necklace and a pair of white block heel sandals from Forever 21. I actually bought the shoes back in December on sale and had to wait for it to warm up to finally wear them. Happily, they're comfortable enough to walk back and forth to work, which is really all I can ask in a pair of cheap shoes.  daydreaming skater dress : c/o tobi | shoes : forever 21 | necklace: stella & dot | sunglasses: forever 21 Check out more from Tobi:  shorts  |  jewelry  |  casual dresses ...

Leather Scalloped Skirt, Polka Dots, & Orange Tights

Happy weekend everyone! I just had the most lazy weird Friday ever, so I'm updating later than usual. I basically slept on and off since class got done at noon. I know, I'm pretty exciting. This outfit was fun today though! I wore my leather skirt that we recently DIY scallop hemmed. I may post a little tutorial of sorts on how to do that, but it's pretty self explanatory. I like that the skirt is a little shorter now. It still squeezes my insides right at the waist, but it's more comfortable now that I'm having a few skinny months. Leather just doesn't have any give! Oh well, it looks cool. skirt, top, shoes: thrifted | tights, earrings, hair bow: forever21.com  I got to pull out my bag of long-sleeved tops and sweaters and such today. It's finally cool in the morning so the extra arm covering was welcome. Plus it was almost like Christmas getting to pull out my warm-weather-only clothes after all this time!  I always love when I real...
