Since December 2013, this dress has been collecting dust in the back of my closet, patiently awaiting the day I would finally wear it.
If I were asked to describe my style, it would be contemporary chic, not boho Barbie. Though this dress is something I likely won't be seen in throughout my everyday life, the delicate lace stitching and lilac coloring make it a beautiful garment nonetheless.
Manufactured by Free People, the dress has that familiar hippy, bohemian vibe that People always tries to achieve in its clothing, making it an enchanting and whimsical wear.
When trying to pair shoes with this dress, the only image that came to mind was wedges. I knew the shoes had to be springy and could not be black, which is why I was relieved to find the pair I'm wearing. Because the cream color matches perfectly with the dress's mesh neck and shoulder design and the wedges have a traditional cork wedge, the shoes are the ideal fit for the ensemble.
The only thing missing is a floral headband.
