Terror on the High Seas



What I'm wearing:
*anthropologie High Seas Dress (similar here and here)
*anthropologie Tangled Treasure Sandals
*Louis Vuitton Monogram Speedy 35 Bag (similar here)



Oh yes, I succumbed to the High Seas dress (see my original review here). I've been eyeing it for awhile, decided that it wasn't worth full price, then it went on sale, sold out of my size online, couldn't find it in the stores that I checked. When I was in Las Vegas, I decided to do a quick look around the anthropologie store and found this in the sale section in my size! I tried it on again, and I knew I had to buy it. Surprisingly this was my only clothing purchase from my trip. There is tons of shopping in Las Vegas, but nothing I can't get in Atlanta or New York. It was fun to window shop though.

At first I thought this would be too memorable of a dress to wear often. It is very bright, but I love bright!  And of course I love anything nautical themed. It is definitely a dress I can wear all summer. Super comfortable and crisp even in the humidity. I love the interesting cut of the back of the dress as well. This dress already got worn the next day after I bought it!



I think it's funny that I took photos on the "Brooklyn Bridge" at the New York New York Hotel & Casino that we stayed in! Went from NYC to a little mini version of NYC. I thought it was a cute theme.

  2. Aw, I'm glad someone bought and loves to wear that dress. I so wanted it, but it just didn't get along with me. You look great in it!

    NY, NY is one of my fave casinos on the strip - totally kitschy, but that's what I love about it!
