I've been waiting for the right moment to wear this black shirt dress. I picked it up at the beginning of the summer knowing that it would be the perfect transitional dress. No, not a summer-to-fall transitional dress, but a 'normal clothes' to 'maternity clothes' dress. I can still cram myself into my jeans but it is starting to get uncomfortable. This dress was a life saver.
I also thought this magazine clutch (thanks to Outrage Fashion) would work perfectly with this dress. The high-low hem and rolled back sleeves of the dress give it an effortless feel while the clutch adds a touch of cool to the look. And I can't believe I found these heels again. Stacked up high on a shelf next to my wedding shoes sat these red sandals that I have had for years. I love when I find something old again that feels new and fresh when added to my current wardrobe.
There is still time to enter the giveaway for a $40 electronic Forever 21 gift card here. Have a great day!

Amy! My favorite combo is a black dress and red heels! I wish I could dig up red heels like that in my closet!! Love this look Amy! You are beautiful! P.S. What an awesome clutch:))!
ReplyDeleteYay glad you found the right moment. It's a gorgeous dress. I like the heels too. I think a belt would also do this dress well, though your version's lovely as well.
