{c/o Sugarlips Dress, Old Navy Denim Jacket, Nine West Sandals, Bulova Watch, H&M Ring, Forever 21 Bangles, Sterling Silver Necklace (similar here and here}

When the lovely folks over Sugarlips sent me this dress, I immediately fell in love with its delicate butterfly print.  It sort of reminds me of the pretty patterns you find on fancy china… which is ironic considering Eric and I pigged out at Hill Country (where they serve your food on butcher paper and give you a roll of paper towel to wipe yourself off) the day I wore this dress.  I typically wouldn’t wear a white dress to a BBQ joint, but sometimes I like living on the edge (I know… I’m such a daredevil).

{Zara Blazer, Milly Dress & Givenchy Sandals via Century 21}

If this dress looks familiar, it’s because I featured a sneak peek from my recent trek into Century 21. I’ve worn it twice already, and I can pretty much guarantee that it’ll be on heavy rotation this season. It’s one of those dresses you can just throw on with a pair of heels (and maybe a little cardigan or blazer for the office), and GO! I’m also giving it bonus points for having pockets and for the fact that I only paid about 25% of the original retail price.

Closet Confection: Party {On My} Dress

It was pouring rain the day I bought this dress, and I ducked for cover inside an H&M store to wait out the storm. The sky started to clear up, and I was on my way out (empty-handed) when I spotted this dress hanging by its lonesome on the rack. As it turns out, there was only one left in the entire store, and it just so happened to be in my size. Who was I to tempt fate?
