No-Stress Dress


Dress: Forever 21
Cardigan: Nordstrom Rack
Tights: Urban Outfitters
Shoes: thrifted

I’m trying, probably unwisely, to squeeze in writing this blog post between a day spent Christmas shopping with Jasen and an evening having dinner with my mom and seeing my youngest brother in a play. Technically I should be headed out the door on my way to meet my mom right about now, but...here’s what I’m wearing today.

I’ve had this dress for years, and it’s one of those things I just throw on when I want to be comfortable yet still look somewhat put together. The polka dots are kind of faded, but I like how it’s short and swingy and pretty loose at the waist — perfect for a day spent running around town and eating way too much!

    I love it...it's really pretty and feminine. The tights work great with it too...they give it a bit of a grungy edge :) Enjoy the rest of your very Christmassy sounding day!

    Hi! My name is Natasha and I'm a (fairly) new follower! Actually, I've been following for a bit but it has taken me this long to finally comment!
    I really like your style! Do you only wear skirts?

    I like how you've called this your No-Stress Dress. I might have to adopt that term! It's a very sweet dress and the colors look really good with your green cardigan. And, how fun are your tights!

    Really cute dress. I love the mix of green and blue in this outfit and your tights are pretty fantastic. Dresses are the best choice when you need something quick and easy to wear.
