Black lace





Sunnies: Gucci | Earrings: Express | Necklace: Premier (option) | Bag: Gucci | Dress: J Crew Factory | Bracelets: Express | Sandals: JCrew (option, option)

I love an easy dress in the summer. This one is perfect - so low maintenance, an easy shape, and the lace makes it special. I always have to toughen up lace, so I added the stud sandals.

Speaking of these stud sandals - the first time Rachelle over at Pink Sole won my heart over was because of these sandals. She does awesome Designer Dupe posts, and she had posted these sandals as a dupe of some Isabel Marant sandals - see her original post here. These sandals were originally $298, but I was able to snag them taxed and shipped for $126. And I never would have even known they existed had they not been for Rachelle. Reason #723876236 why I love blogging! <3

  2. aahh you look so pretty in that little dress, I just got something similar from J,Crew(by the way they have an even better sale in stores) and I might wear these sandals with them. I need to start doing these designer dupes again, they require some research :) Hey can you please convince Gina to start an IG account.

  4. My plans are backfiring! Rachelle was supposed to tell YOU that she likes cobbler, not to tell you to tell me to join IG!!! HAHAHA. In other news, yes, blogging really is awesome for finding the BEST pieces for your wardrobe. Sometimes at the best prices...sometimes not. But still, I dress better because of it. :) Those sandals are killer, and so is the black lace dress. You have procured such a fabulous wardrobe!

    1. I always have to pair girly with edgy! And I hadn't worn these stud sandals this season yet so it seemed like a natural fit! This shade of brown looks great with black!
      Thank you!
