work appropriate with a bright summer blazer
[dress: Free People, heels: Vince Camuto, blazer: Ann Taylor, earrings: BP Nordstrom, necklace: boutique, ring: Guess]
For me, the reason this fabulous dress works is because of its length. I love how it's not too short and it has a high neckline. Yes, it is body-hugging, but with these other more conservative elements, I find it quite classy and, when a blazer is added, even work appropriate. The closed-toe nude pumps help as well in conveying that traditional look. It's all about proportions and only showing off so much. Also, the floral print works so well with this dress because it adds an overall sweetness to the whole look. Instead of a classic string of pearls, I opted for something more modern with a hint of sparkle, and that element creates more of an edge with this dress. Overall, this is an ensemble that I absolutely love and feel very confident in! Nothing's better than that!
Pretty dress, it looks so perfectly polished with the blazer!
