My last purchases for awhile... Two-Wheeler & Arribada Current Dress Review

As I stated a few days ago, I'm going on a no-buy. But I didn't start it until after I ordered the Two-Wheeler Dress from anthropologie. I love shirtdresses, and I love whimsical prints. This shirtdress has bicycles all over it, how darling is that? And I loved the vibrant blue color. Unfortunately, the color isn't at all that vibrant in real life. Still a pretty blue, but not the blue that was seen in this photo.

Here's what it looked like in real life, on me.

I paired it with my red Loeffler Randall button flats, but I felt kind of frumpy in flats. But since I loved the print so much, I decided to give it another try. If I were to actually wear this dress out, I'd pair it with the Looping Lanes Belt and some yellow peep toes. 

Sizing wise I felt like this was true to size. I took the same size as my Reed Shirtdress, but this dress definitely feels a bit bigger. It also has a bit of elastic in the back so it can be a bit flexible sizing wise. For ladies with larger upper arms (like myself), the short sleeves on this dress can be a little tight. I can see myself reaching for this dress a lot this summer, it's lightweight and super fun to wear.

With my Two-Wheeler dress I also ordered the Arribada Current Dress. I am such a sucker for a turtle print. (See my other turtle dress here). I tried this on in store the other day but decided not to buy it. But I kept thinking about it so I caved. I thought that it had a great fit, and I love the green color.

I think it would be a great dress than can be dressed up or down this spring/summer. I love that it's a dress I can wear a regular bra with (it even has those snaps you can snap your bra strap into). The material is lightweight and lovely, and I love the way it drapes in the front. I had a hard time tying the sash properly, so I just turned it around and tied it in the back in a bow. 

So there we have it. I am really excited for warmer weather to come back and stay for good. Can't wait to wear these dresses out and about.

Also just wanted to say that if any of you guys don't yet have a steamer, I'd definitely recommend this one from Rowenta. It's pretty compact (fits under my bathroom sink) and very easy to use. Both of these dresses came out of the box with fold marks, it took under a couple of minutes to get all the wrinkles out. 

*My sister picked up a couple of great pieces from the H&M Garden Collection, we are going to try to do a joint review soon. So make sure to check back for that!
