Benefit blush (one of my favorites)
This is the dress I was hoping would be great for a friend's upcoming wedding. However, the material is super flimsy and one false move and my lady bits will be on display. Not exactly appropriate for a wedding. Hell, not exactly appropriate anywhere! I'm very modest as you ladies may know, and I just can't imagine wearing this on its own. It's such a shame because it's beautiful! The soft layers flow around the body in a very feminine way. The color itself is extremely vibrant, and you know cobalt is my absolute favorite shade. I think I'll stick to wearing it like a tunic though, or perhaps over a bathing suit in the Summer by the pool. It's quite revealing, and I'm just not prepared to reveal. I don't regret buying it because it takes me out of my comfort zone. And, it was on sale :)
So gorgeous! I love the drape of this tunic (too funny about the risk of the lady bits on display LOL!) I think it works beautifully as a tunic and will look great as a swimsuit cover-up - you can't go wrong with this beautiful color! Also - your lipstick is the perfect shade - glad you put the products you used in the description <3

Thank you Zeba! I think this dress and color would look amazing on you! I suppose I could really try wearing it as a dress one day...maybe when it's the dead of Summer and there is absolutely no wind ;)
DeleteI highly am recommending the lip products to anyone and everyone I can! Not because I am paid to say that either ;) They truly are gorgeous.
I lobe the material, color, and draping like you mentioned. I am always sucked in my a good sale! I think this color is so pretty on you and am pretty confident you could rock it sans jeans. That being said, I totally think you should do what you feel comfortable with, and I love it with the jeans! I have a similar tunic top that is too short for a dress, and I paired with with denim shorts last summer because I wasn't sure what else to do.

Thank you Amy Ann. I do think I could probably wear it sans jeans as you mention, but I think I need to find the right event. Maybe a date night with my husband at a lounge-type place. Somewhere where I can just sit still LOL. It really is beautiful. I just wish the layers in front weren't so revealing and flimsy. But we shall see!
Deleteawww man too bad because it is such a pretty dress, before reading the post I was already thinking how cute it would be with sandals :)

Awww they would look GREAT with sandals! You are so right Rachelle. Thank you for the idea. I do see it as a cover-up on top of a bathing suit but I'm sure if I dressed it down with beaded sandals and a fun tote it would be perfect. I'll try it and when I do, I'll be sure to document it. I thought it was too short when I first tried it on but it's really not. It's just very thin material.
DeleteI agree with Zeba about your lip color. I think it's my favorite that you wear (is it the same as what you were wearing in the face selfie on insta not long ago??) and I feel like it might work on me. Might have to check that out! I adore that dress and the color. Definitely use it as a swim cover up at the beach! I also agree with Rachelle that it just looks made for sandals. If you're wearing a swimsuit underneath it's okay if a little breeze comes by right? LOL.

Yeah I didn't realize how thin the fabric is! In the picture online, the girl is wearing full in strappy heels so I thought it would be more of a party dress. Oh well! I do still really like it and I will definitely try it out with sandals. And yes, the lip products are the ones I wore on Instagram:)
DeleteMy OCD is kicking in: full on, not full in ;)
DeleteLove how you still found such an amazing way to wear the dress. The color look so pretty on you!
ReplyDeleteBummer it didn't work out as a dress, but I'm happy you aren't giving up on it - the color is gorgeous! And I love your delicate necklace.
