I’m here today with another What I Wore post! I’m really excited about this post because I absolutely LOVE this dress. When I saw it I said “I’m buying it, I don’t care if they have my size or not, I’ll find a way to get in it.” I went into my “crazy woman shopper” mode. I calmly walked over to the rack of dresses and searched for my size and there it was *insert cheesy smiling face here*. I love the look of mixing prints when done correctly. I struggle mixing prints myself and so I look for pieces that took care of that job for me. I never want to look like I tried to hard when it comes to my style and so most of the time I stick to what I know, so when I saw this dressed my mixed print prayers were answered.
The print is very bold and the orange is the perfect pop of color and is paired perfectly with the hint of blue/green in the dress as well. I paired with the dress that I got from Strawberry with my cream and black ankle strap sandals from Marc Fisher and a grey Rowling handbag from Just Fab.
This week we are taking on the floral trend which in my opinion will always be around. I’m kind of a newbie when it comes to wearing florals because for so many years I hated it. Growing up all saw offered to plus size women were ugly, garish floral print clothes . I was completely turned off by florals until I came upon this awesome Simply Be maxi dress (worn as a skirt for my post today!) a year ago . This dress has single-handedly changed my perception of floral print forever. I learned that I could wear a beautiful vibrant print without feeling like a huge flower.
Ooh, I like this dress! Those shoes are sexy too.
Haha thanks! I think they are Mark Fisher.
