What I'm Wearing: A Free Dress

Hello lovely people! I've been far too absent lately. I mean to change that and get consistent again. Yesterday marked the beginning of a long and busy wedding season which means lots and lots of showers. Yesterday was my sister-in-laws bridal shower, so we made the 2 hour drive to get to it and it was absolutely lovely.

 I decided to wear this dress I won from work. There was a contest that whoever sold the most dresses in the store that week would win a free dress of their choice. Naturally, my competitive side took over and I ended up selling the most - a free dress was on the line after all. I had my eye on this fun hi-lo dress for awhile and when I tried it on I knew I had to have it. I love all of the colors in it.
Makes me a happy gal.

Dress: c/o maurices, Shoes: Anne Klein via Von Maur, Necklace: Arden B (gift)

What do you think of this look?

    I don't blame you. I would've done the same to get that dress! It looks stunning on you!

    As for wedding season, I feel like I'm attending shower after shower--and they are all from family members (second cousin twice removed and things like that), so I'm sort of forced to go.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Your comments always make me giddy like a school girl on a sugar high. Leave your link so I can creep on you. The good kind of creeping. Not the kind where I hang your pictures in my room or anything. (awkward shuffle)

Fashionably yours,
