First, choose your type of floral/summery dress you'd like to wear. I choose this one:
Floral Daze Silk Dress
This dress although bright as hell, has an amazing A line to it which already sets it apart from the strapped dresses.
Second, depending on the weather, I'd go with a light leather jacket, blazer, or vest to go on top. I choose these:
Denim Naval Blazer
Cozy Faux Leather Jacket
Satin Grosgrain Belted Vest (use without belt)
Third, pick out a pair of dark colored heels preferably black or dark blue OR neutral works too. I choose any of these:
Wedge Platform
Natalia Peeptoe Pumps
Workman Peeptoe Bootie
Mistress Buckled Stiletto Heels
Opened Toe Oxford Heels
Fourth, ice the cake off with some BLING! Bangles/rings can definitely accent the entire outfit whereas a heavy necklace and crazy earrings makes it too busy and cluttered. When wearing a busy dress choose a simple necklace to enhance the look.
When wearing an ensemble like this during the day, neutral colored makeup adds a sophistication to the look as a whole as well as wearing your hair up in a bun or a ponytail. For nighttime use, keep the neutral makeup except rock it with a pink or red lip and wear your hair down. Put your outfits together and show me how you made this look your own! Can't wait to see what you've got!
