Today (May 8th, 2009) I'm Wearing...

Saturday Night Sushi Dinner with friends :)

Did some day shopping today with my girls Chelsie and Emily and made two successful purchases at Forever 21. I opted to wear my new dress out to dinner. It was a little chilly out but (Pshawh) when has that ever stopped me :P

 

This Tye-Dye Zipper T-back dress was only $19.80 and these Linen shorts were only $15.80 and also came in khaki!

I'm sort of a fan of the new Tye-dye trend that's becoming huge this Spring and this pattern was so versatile that it could easily see it transitioning from office (picture it...with a crisp cardigan and a sassy pair of flats) to cocktail hour ( toss on a pair of nude heels and a blazer and voila!).

Shorts are an idea I am acclimating myself slowly to- I had made a previous vow to myself in years past that during the warm Spring/Summer months, I would enforce skirts and sundresses wholeheartedly. Yet, I have come to notice that my style has been changing in these past few months and that perhaps I was too hasty in dismissing shorts altogether. Plus, although them seem its-bitsy in the photo, they are surprisingly modest and fall at the perfect place without being too tight and or too short. I see endless possibilities before me.... ;)

The Ensemble:

• Black & White Tye-Dye Zipper T-Back Dress (Forever 21...$19.80)
• Cerulean Blue Skimmer Flats (Joyce Leslie...$15)
• Gold Cuff Neck Choker (Goodwill Thrift Shop...$4)
• 3/4 Length Jacket (Mr. Price in South Africa...less than $10 American)
