Normally I avoid white and light cream color clothes yet I am oddly attracted to the colors because these shades are so cool and clean. For some unknown reason, don't you think white and cream have a way of making a gal look slight horizontally challenged? *So unforgiving..... Once I tried a set of white Juicy tracksuit to only to insult myself after I pulled the bottom on. Trust me, it was not a pretty sight and Savvy Sis was on the floor laughing. I found this cream color cotton dress over the weekend and decided I should wear it before putting summer things away.
I love the cross detail in the back. What I am wearing:
-cream color James Perse ultra soft cotton dress. He is one of my favorite designers when I look for comfort and style. I just adore the softness of this dress even if it is quite unforgiving after a big meal.
-Gucci sunnies --- I adore pink sunnies so BF says I look at the world through rose color glasses.
-Dark beige Tod's wrap around sandals --- Savvy Sis has the flat version here, she calls them her all terrain sandals.
On a side note, after months of debate and encouragement from perfect strangers and friends, I am going to set up a new jewelry business venture. It will mainly be costume jewelry pieces. I am very excited but at the same time that means I will be working all the time. I am working on the site now and looks forward to feedback from my bloggie friends. Stay tune!!!
My closet is full of blacks coz im such a klutz when it comes to dirt (it just luvs to stick to me, so black seems less noticeable on dirt ;p). White clothes are what I always dream of putting on sigh~ u look gr8 in this! xoxo elle
ReplyDeleteI love that dress on you! I'm too afraid of spilling something on a white outfit - even though I'm not usually a messy person!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the jewelry! I'm excited to see what you create.
Ooh you look lovely and the necklace (did you make it?) gives the outfit a nice feminine punch.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the jewelry launch - can't wait to see!

I avoid wearing light colors cause I'm messy and wouldn't be able to keep them clean. lol I think you look good in this dress. It is super cute. I lvoe the sandles too.
ReplyDeleteCome see my Halloween Spooktacular. Going on now at my blog!
I think it's a lovely dress. I, however, have this obsession with pairing cognac riding boots with all white dresses - I just love the way it looks; so that would be my footwear of choice for such a frock.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on starting a jewelry business. You are going to be monstrously successful - I've loved everything you've created thus far! :)

ReplyDeleteVery cute!! And I feel the same way about white & cremes!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks wonderful on you. that fabric looks so soft.
ReplyDeleteand can't wait to hear more about and SEE the new site!
Yes, white tracksuits suck, but I don't think white dresses are as unflattering.. I own several and they all look pretty decent on me (I hope, at least!).
ReplyDeleteYou look great in your dress though - nothing unforgiving about that one.
I think the same thing when it comes to light colors! I think whites/creams have to be cut in a certain way to counteract the "short effect." I had wanted white skinnies for awhile, but after trying some on, I realized it made me look about 3 feet tall. But I bought some white trouser pants and I look perfectly normal in them. Weird! I think you still look tall and lean in that white summer dress, though! Very breezy and casual chic!
ReplyDeletethe dress is gorgeous on you! :) x
ReplyDeleteI DON'T LIKE THAT DRESS THAT MUCH, BUT WHITE COMBINES PERFECTLY WITH YOU.. YOU SHOULD EXPLORE WHITE THE BETTER ;)

I used to be a cream color addict, but back then I was blond and I was wearing a lot of make up. Now in my natural colors (very close to yours) I find my self washed out in cream, unless I wear a scarf or some other accessories in bright colors...
ReplyDeleteStark white looks great on me, and I'm sure on you too.
Cream and white usually make me look thinner too.
Hi sweetie. Thanks for dropping by my blog and for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it. - You look lovely in white!

I once bought a white Juicy track outfit. OMG. I don't know what possessed me, but I think the wore it like...twice.
ReplyDeleteYay on the jewelry venture! Can't wait to see the new website!
I don't think you look horizontally challenged in the least. I love how the dress hits that sweet spot that's both comfortable and stylish. Looks like a keeper!
ReplyDeleteyour design looks great. all your jewelery design that you post in this site, they are great.
ReplyDeletebtw, i love your white dress.
I'm sure that in *some* cases, cream can be challenging. Not here. You look dreamy and wonderful! I love this dress on you.
