Todays outfit - guess what!?! My dress that I ordered last Tuesday from ModCloth arrived on my doorstep yesterday afternoon. I had to give it a twirl and test it out. I must say - I am in love!! I wanted to try something fun with my hair for this look so I used Kate from Scathingly Billiant's (love her blog!) simple bouffant updo tutorial. I still need to work on perfecting it. I had to use a butterfly clip (yes the one with glitter and wings) from the 5th grade to help hold it up. I need to invest in some more bobby pins, haha.
My first official ModCloth purchase (other than stylish surprises) and I am hooked. I love the cute collar, lace, and mint green color. All of my favorite things in one dress!!! Also - the dress is great for twirling :]
Outfit Details: Dress - Jade with Love Dress, ModCloth | Cameo - thrifted | Belt - Dorothy Perkins | Purse - Urban Outfitters| Wedges - Payless | Pea-pod - my mom's friend from work.
Like the SweetPea-pod? My moms friend from work sewed it for us. It is from a baby carrier pattern and works so well for pea. Haha. She will let us do anything. I put her in it and she is happy as a clam :]
Have a good day everyone!

ReplyDeleteThanks lady!!
DeleteI love the dress, the color really suits you! Modcloth is just not even fair, I spend so many hours browsing the site and bookmarking dresses and stuff I want but I've yet to buy anything from them. I would squeal like there was no tomorrow receiving a modcloth package. I love your updo and that picture of you and your doggie is all sorts of adorables.

LOL! She definitely looks so happy to be swaddled in that thing! How adorable. :))
ReplyDeleteAllison, you look ridic' in this dress...like, ridiculously charming and beautiful! I lovelovelove it! And I can't even imagine it on anyone else now. I also noticed your little cameo brooch (or is it a necklace?)! I'd love to see a closeup of it. It goes so well with the dress either way.
I hope you and Pea get to make it to the ballgame and I hope she wins that cute contest.
P.s. I remember butterfly clips and started to giggle when I read that line. heheh
Allison, this dress is AMAZING! :) You look so good and I love the way your hair is as well. BTW, you WON the $200 DITTO GIVEAWAY :D :D :D
ReplyDeleteOh and I forgot to say that I STILL have those silly floppy butterfly clips with all the glitter. My love of glitter has never faltered in all my life so I keep them around ;)
DeleteI love this dress, outfit, hair, everything so much I could squeal!
ReplyDeleteIf it helps, I have a whole pot of butterfly clips in a drawer at home. =)
