Purple People Eater

Outfit Details: Dress: Urban Outfitters; Cardigan: Wet Seal; Belt: JCPenny; Necklace: Forever 21; Shoes: Missoni for Target

As a slightly over five foot girl, I generally avoid anything floor length. Most floor length items tend to drag the ground, making me look even shorter. Which is why I was utterly positive that maxi dresses was a trend I would not be able to pull off… until I saw this dress. I absolutely fell in love with it, and upon reading the reviews I was delighted. It turns out that it was perfect for short girls like me– this ankle grazing garment on most people was floor length on height challenged people! Needless to say, I snapped it up.

I think my favorite part is that the lower half of the maxi is sheer (well technically the whole thing is sheer, that’s why there’s a slip). This purple cardigan seems to go with everything and I threw it on top, while belting the garment to hide the strings that tie at the waist.

Nail Polish: Fiji by Essie, Konad Stamping Polish in White

As an attempt at accessorizing (not one of my strong suits) I added this necklace that I got from Forever 21.  And of course, since I managed to snag the Missoni for Target flats they were a perfect way for some subtle print mixing. I had decided on a delicate but pretty manicure Sunday night, and took the time to stamp little bows on my nails. It’s definitely a subtle look that will go with everything.

  1. Ah you’re so lucky to grab those flats. I like how you added floral/watercolor (whatever that print is) print, and on a MAXI DRESS no less. Major admiration points there. Also Konad stamping is so fun. I need to do it sometime.

    • Aww thank you! :)

      As for the shoes–It really was pure luck! A combo of living in a small town and having an uncommon shoe size.

      I try to Konad Stamp about once a week. :) I try to do my nails once a week. ;)

  2. sooo adorable!! and I’m so jealous you were able to snag a pair of the missoni flats. i wanted them but they were already sold out by 7am when i got online :( … that’s okay though… my blue missoni maxi dress is arriving today!

  3. this is like my favorite post ever due to stevie looking hilarious in the one picture — it even funnier that your holding her back and she’s like “i wanna be a start too! ” :D and nice sweater + love the floral pattern :]
