But it could be so simple....






What I'm wearing:
anthropologie dress
Appepazza Peep-toed Slingbacks

The weather is absolutely fantastic in Atlanta today!! High of 61 degrees today! This is unbelievable, and I am ecstatic. I originally planned a different outfit (complete with tights) but decided that I was going to take advantage of this warm weather! I know it's going to get chillier when it gets dark but I don't care. So sick of cold weather.

I decided to keep it super simple today. Just a dress and a pair of shoes. And bare legs (!!!!) As you can see from this past entries, I am a huge fan of accessorizing, but I decided to go for a minimalist look this time around. I love this dress, especially the low back and how it ties in the back.



I usually don't post try-on photos, but I really wanted to share this one! My sister & I came across this gem a few weeks ago, I was hesitant about it at first but she was convinced it was great. Boy was she right! I was supposed to pack it in my suitcase when we drove to NYC but I forgot. So I still have it with me, so you get to see me try it on and wish that I had a fabulous spring garden party to attend so I could wear this somewhere. The best part is is that the dress is from H&M! It has a great fit and is made of the most gorgeous fabric, and it has pockets! I love the full skirt and could just see Blair Waldorf rocking it one day.

  1. Your OOTD is gorgeous... simple and chic. I am in love with that H&M dress. I saw it in the store yesterday, but didn't even allow myself to try it on. I have nowhere to wear it!

  2. I *LOVE* that Anthro dress. Why don't I remember it? And that H&M one is pretty. It looks very vintage. That print is adorable.

    You've got a great figure, Rosa. I hope you don't mind me saying that!

  3. I saw that dress in H&M yesterday- it's so beautiful. It literally stopped me in my tracks. I was quite amazed at the gerneral floral stock- 50s housewive heaven. :)
    You look so pretty in it.
