The last time I wore this dress was almost one year ago here! I'm glad I decided to read it again before writing this post, because I was about to talk about the same things I did then - that I've had it forever, that I love it, that it's awesome quality for being Forever 21.
Today's styling is obviously not a huge change from what you saw before, but this time, I did decide to wear a denim vest over it. Inevitably the denim plus floral combo makes me feel like I should be running through a prairie with wild flowers all around me, but sometimes you just have to go with it! It's one of my favorite maxis and I don't see myself letting go of it any time soon!

Love the jean jacket - I have been on the hunt for a sleeveless one myself!

Thanks! The cut of the one is perfect and it has a bit of stretch to it too which helps from keeping it too boxy! I love it! Hope you find your perfect one!
DeleteLove this boho chic look! You're rocking it girl!

Thank you! So comfy! But still fun!
DeleteLOL @ "running through a prairie with wildflowers." I feel that way in any kind of denim jacket and I even struggle with wearing a chambray shirt. IF this look is prairie girl, it's the very polished, sophisticated kind. Not the Laura Ingalls kind.

This morning getting ready, I thought to myself that I most absolutely wore this (just not a maxi) in the 90s. And it made me miss Contempo and 5-7-9. Haha! But funny- back in the day, I totally still shopped at Express! It was my gateway to youuuu!!
DeleteAh this is so cute!! Love everything and how you put it together.
ReplyDeletexo, Lee
Well thank you! Its easy breezy!
DeleteLove this F21 dress!! It is so pretty and I love the boho vibe to it! Just saw another pretty maxi at F21 & passed on it but now I'm wishing I got it!

F21 is so hit and miss from me. But I feel like if you find the *perfect* piece, it can last forever! Go back and get it!
DeleteWow, I'm surprised it's from f21! Love the boho feel :)

Thanks so much, girl! I appreciate it!
DeleteForever 21 has some of the best summer dresses. I love the mix of floral prints and love the denim jacket. I would never think "prairie girl" or as Gina says, "Laura Ingalls" (Oh my gosh, I loved that show!)
ReplyDeleteHaha! That's awesome! I remember watching it, but not any particular details! Great Tracy fun fact!
DeleteLooking good, doll! :) Happy Thursday!

You're just the best - thanks!
DeleteI love everything...the dress, the shoes, even the accessories. Just beautiful. By added the vest, you made this outfit totally different.
ReplyDeleteKreyola Jounerys
Thanks so much for the encouragement!
DeleteI am wearing a maxi today as well, and was debating if I should take pictures in it, because it's so simple, I am definitely lacking in the shoe department, but maybe I'll copy your style and add a vest for the rest of the day and take some pics. Another "how to style what I already own" pin worthy outfit, love it
ReplyDeleteNatalia
But i do struggle with "simplicity" in the summer. In the winter, you can layer to add interest, which is more difficult (and uncomfy) to do in the summer. But there are some dresses that are just as beautiful and interesting on its own! Yours could be one of these so don't discount it!
DeleteLove the boho look of this maxi dress with the denim vest! Those wedges are super cute too!

This reminded me that I need a denim vest. I love pairing them with maxis as well you look so cute.
ReplyDeleteThis one has a little stretch in it which helps for comfort and also keeps it from looking overly boxy. Recommend!
DeleteHope you find your perfect one!
Beautiful maxi dress on you!
ReplyDeleteI always love adding a touch of edge to feminine pieces, which is why I chose the chevron necklace!
ReplyDeleteIn love with those wedges and necklace! I thought it was the coveted Madewell necklace for a minute there... may need to run to Express to get my hands on this one :)
