Little Yellow Dress

June 24, 2013

Ever since I discovered that the drop waist actually worked for my body, I’ve been casually keeping my eye out for a dressier version of the silhouette. This recent consignment shop find was a clear winner: I love that while the fabric is clearly on the formal side, the easy, looser cut relaxes the vibe. It’s also truly the prettiest shade of yellow I’ve ever seen… and has me quite convinced that everyone should own a Little Yellow Dress.

    Gorgeous! Yellow is such a flattering color on you (and not at all on me!) Love the little red bag you paired it with – keeps things simple and classy! Gorgeous as always Jen!

    Looks amazing on you. I’ll have to take your word for it. I will never try the cut on me–I’m not brave enough. Plus, my boobs usually make it look like I’m wearing a gigantic sack.

    The dress is stunning and it’s even more special that you found it at a consignment shop! The drop waist silhouette is super flattering on you and I love how you pumped up the yellow with red.
