Ruffles and Roses


Dress: Topshop, tights: Forever 21, ballet flats: Coach, necklace: Forever 21, sunglasses: Oliver Peoples.

As I mentioned here I've been trying to incorporate more muted, soft colours into my wardrobe. I realized that I have a tendency to gravitate toward prints and bright colours, but after seeing other bloggers rocking outfits in shades of peach, soft pink and cream, I've decided to give it a try.

I couldn't be happier with this Topshop ruffle shift dress. I find it to be really comfortable and figure-flattering at the same time, and the tiered ruffles make it so feminine. I'm definitely going to be looking for more dresses in this shape for fall.

    I really like the muted color of this dress, and the patterned tights! Plus your outfit complements your environment, which I always find fascinating in blog photos. Have a great weekend!

    I'm like you - always heading towards the prints and the bold. I've made the same resolve to use more neutral and more muted colours, we'll see how that goes!

    You look very romantic!
