Something a little boring for my usual flamboyant tastes, but I found this little dress stashed away in the back of the wardrobe and realised I had never worn it. Purchased for a bargain price of $20 a couple of years ago on Etsy. The shoes were the only pair I own in a plain neutral color and were purchased recently for $6 from Brands Exclusive.
I felt a little drab, but was surprised that I got more outfit compliments than usual.
Maybe boring becomes me? How horrifying!!
Once again, my hair flower is made by Uncle Fezter Flowers. Have you checked out his store yet?

I have a theory on that! I do think that look works for you, but I don't think that's why you got all the compliments.
ReplyDeletePeople notice changes- so when you dress differently than you normally do, people are more prone to pay attention to what you're wearing. So they give compliments, since it looks good. I think it's the same reason everyone gets compliments on their new haircuts. You feel different, so you carry yourself differently, so people notice.
That's true! Thanks so much for your comment x
DeleteI understand you point, but no wonder you got a lot of compliments, you look great in that dress! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think anything with that many rhinestones can truly qualify as boring! It's certainly a very flattering silhouette on you. And I love the flower you've paired it with.
ReplyDeleteYes, the flower was a good match!
DeleteI don't think that looks boring at all! It's super cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura!

Thanks Eva-Lynn!
DeleteYou look gorgeous! It's a wonderful suit.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mariela x
DeleteYou need a pair of wild yellow shoes, they will do the trick. You look slim and lovely, do use it more often. :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, yellow shoes would be Fab! But that would mean buying MORE shoes.....I may end up divorced!
DeleteYou truly make everything you wear look exciting, stylish and so immensely pretty. I really don't think you have a single boring gene in your whole body (and, I'd venture to say, or a single boring garment in your whole wardrobe), dear gal.

It's way too boring to actually be boring. ;)
DeleteYou look fantastic in everything, that's why you got compliments. I don't think you could be boring if you tried!
ReplyDeleteThanks Viktoria! I try very hard!
DeleteI don't think it's boring at all, I really love the simplicity of it :)
