I had two things working against me when I wore this dress: static cling and wind. Together they are a powerful duo, ready to destroy any hope of a dress looking like it did on the hanger. Let’s just pretend the lumps from static cling and the wind blown look is on purpose — lumpy: it’s the new black.
When I bought these amazingly annoying colored shoes last year on clearance, I had no idea I’d wear them as much as I have. I thought I might as well try them, because any trend is okay to try for $20. (You heard that right, I’ll do anything for $20.) Bright is always in style, at least in my book it is.

I was going to get those sunglasses and I asked my husband if I looked like a real housewife of BH, he said no, so I didnt get them. Haha! I got the traditional ones but may go back for the coral ones. You look fab!!!!!
So either it's a sign or something, but I've been eyeing that dress and here you are wearing it so perfectly. If you didn't mention the static cling, I don't think I would have even noticed one bit!

Beautiful. And those are the perfect shoes to wear with that dress!
I love this color combination and look – I just did a post about it the other day. (BTW, I never even noticed the static.) I love satin materials – but why do they have to cling (embarrassingly).

I love this whole outfit, but the sunglasses totally make it.
I don't think you look lumpy – you look amazing!!! If you do look lumpy, then yes, it certainly is the new black. Stunning dear. Certainly a show stopper 😉

Those heels are amazing, oh yes they are! That's a gorgeous color of dress too, even though it was clingy like a two year old.
No question about it, neon is a neutral!
Hi Kendi, longtime follower, first time commenter here. I'm so excited to take part in your 30×30 remix. Such an amazing way to get creative with our closets and do more with what we already have! I'd love for you to check out my blog as I take on your challenge. Thank you for all your inspiration. Cheers, Brianna thefancyb.blogspot.com
You got quite thee shopping addiction. I used to shop like crazy too and i regret it now. The high is great, but the obsession is not. Have your husband hide your credit cards and try to go a month at a time to break the impulse to shop. It is hard but i did it. Love purple and yellow together.
love the color of that dress!
xxoo,
