Happy Wednesday! How’re you doing? I’m doing so much better this week than I was last week. The sun has been out and the temps have been near 60º. It’s like a heat wave! I know, so why didn’t I take my pictures outside? Because, well, it wasn’t that warm on the day I wore this outfit.
I have a love~hate relationship with this dress. I absolutely adore it because the hubs picked it out for me. And if you’ve ever met him, you’ll know that he’s a strict black, white, and khaki kinda guy, so picking out a navy dress with multicolored horses on it? Just beyond! But I also hate it because part of me feels like I’m way too old to wear novelty prints. Especially novelty prints on a short{er} dress.
I think the tights help to extend the length just enough that I won’t cause a scandal and the shooties {don’t you love that word?} keep me from looking like I’m trying too hard. I grew up in the age of “the higher the hem, the lower the heel.” And I still abide by that rule.
Another fashion rule I believe in is: A white smile is never out of style! If you believe that too, register here to win a professional teeth whitening kit from SmileBrilliant.
Do you ever feel conflicted over hemlines? How do you deal?
