Scalloped Edges

March 13th, 2013

J.Crew Dress, Club Monaco Jacket, Celine Sunglasses, Vintage Chanel Purse, Steve Madden Booties

I’m not usually a big fan of shift dresses. They’re practical, but they usually end up resembling shapeless bags on me. This one felt different. I’m a sucker for anything with scalloped edges and I love that they run along both the hemline and the sleeves. Its simplicity makes it an ideal canvas for accessorizing, but it can just as easily stand on its own with only a black moto jacket and booties.

    The color is perfect for spring and summer! Love the juxtaposition of the girly & delicate dress against the industrial & urban background.

    WONDERFUL color. I love it. I think that and the mint theme I currently have going on would work well together:

    I have to say, I like this outfit and I love scalloped edges as well. The dress looks good on you in the first pic, but it does start to resemble a ill fitted sack in the others. Maybe a belt would have helped.

    What a beautiful look and color on you. I also used this great color in my look today.

    I’m a sucker for scalloped edges as well, and this dress is perfect! I’m not a big fan of shifts, either, they simply aren’t flattering on me, but maybe I should give this one a try :) It has such a lovely color!

    Yes! I saw this dress in the store (it also comes in navy) and had a fit. It is so simple, yet interesting. You can dress it up for a nice dinner or down for a casual event. Genius design.

    And that color looks great on you!

    Perfect simple dress; the scallop edges give it just enough detail. The colour is lovely on you, too.
