Little Lace Dress

Backless dresses are one of my favorite summertime staples. They keep you cool in the summer sun and offer an added touch of sex appeal to an otherwise sweet and typical look. If you feel comfortable and daring enough you can rock a backless dress bra-free or opt for a sticky bra from Target like I do. Sticky bras and pasties are great because they can make you feel more secure and protected in such a revealing outfit.

It was important for me to keep this look more on the casual side. The backless dress already showed quite a bit of skin and I didn't want the look to become too sexy or overdone for the daytime. I dressed down my white lace backless dress with a pair of chunky blue booties paired with a matching blue floppy hat and my indigo blue Celine Mini Luggage Bag.

My Celine bag is still one of my favorite designer purchases to date. I carry this purse all the time and it matches with way more than I could have ever imagined. It has the neutrality of blue jeans but offers a playful pop of color when paired with other neutrals.

Sometimes in the summer heat it becomes hard to find a balance between wanting to wear as little clothing as possible and wanting to be presentable. I think that this backless lace dress is a great option for such occasions. The loose and flowy fabric breathes while exposing just enough skin to be sexy yet still maintain a level of class.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today! I hope that you all are having a fabulous Valentine's Day full of love, happiness and lots and lots of chocolate. Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse to over indulge on chocolate to the point of almost puking and/or hating yourself. I try to avoid this scenario every year but like clock work I always manage to eat just one cupcake or one truffle too many! Some people never learn, do they?

Anyways, today I am bringing you this lovely outfit that I quite obviously planned for Valentine's Day. The kid in me has always wanted to do a shoot with balloons and viola! Cupid ain't got nothin' on me. I'm definitely feeling the love today. I'm also feeling pretty and chic in my white a-line dress.

The back of this dress is my favorite. I absolutely  love open backs or unexpected back details because it adds so much character to the outfit. It is always a plus when you can make a fabulous statement entering and exiting a room.

Classic Black and White Dress

A-line dresses and skirts are one my favorite silhouettes at the moment. As I get older my style is evolving from the skin tight everything that I wore as a teenager. Nowadays, I prefer the fit and flare style of an A-line dress because I think it is sexy yet still classy. Although this shape has been around since the early 1900's the actual A-line term was coined in 1955 as the name for Christian Dior's Spring Collection. This silhouette has been rather popular ever since except for a brief time period in the 80's. It is safe to say that A-line styles are here to stay... and even if they do go out of style they will just as quickly make a come back. So I don't feel bad about all the A-line dresses and skirts that I've been buying lately. After all, I can hold onto them for years.
