The Cabana dress

Sunnies: Vince Camuto | Necklace: Express (option) | Bag: Tory Burch (similar) | Dress: LOFT | Bracelets: H&M (gifted) | Sandals: DV Dolce Vita (also in snake embossed!)

Happy hump day! This post will be short and sweet, much like this dress! This was yet another purchase from a recent LOFT sale. I couldn't resist the stripes, and I was craving a gauzy summer dress. It's definitely very voluminous - more than I'm usually comfortable wearing, even after I've tied it a bit in the back. However, it doesn't bother me, and I actually think it's quite appropriate for the style of this dress. Perhaps it's because I'm picturing myself sipping a pina colada wearing this dress walking barefoot in the sand somewhere. I suppose that's why LOFT called it the Cabana dress.


SHOP THE LOOK:

  2. Ooh, fun! I am looking below this post and can see your flatlay with this dress vs. your real life version! Bonus material! It is a great, easy-breezy summer dress. Love those sandals and that cuff, too!

    1. I'm surprised how much I like this dress, to be quite honest. It must be the stripes. But I'm not usually a fan of gauzy nor tents! Never say never, I guess!

  5. I love that dress! I'm glad you bought it! I saw a similar one at Forever 21 yesterday and tried it on and looked like a cow in it. Yours fits perfectly! I may need to try Loft instead!
