Clearly, I am all about the feminine silhouettes and neutral palettes lately. This shirt dress is no excuse. I had been eyeing it for a while and decided to just get it. When I tried it on, it was love at first… fit? It’s so comfortable, flattering and has the perfect colors incorporated into its pattern! I decided to bring out the turquoise by wearing my necklace that I haven’t yet worn on TFD! Mind you, I’ve worn it all of the time… yet, have failed to actually photograph its beauty. I thought this was the best necklace for the perfect shirt dress because it really added a more casual, trendy feel to it.
I decided to keep the pink palette throughout and wore my favorite (and most comfortable) pink pumps that go with just about everything in my closet. These are great pumps to invest in. They’re extremely comfortable and also come in black and brown. I personally love the blush color because I feel as if it goes with a lot and will always add a feminine touch to any outfit that I decide to wear with them. I just loved how they looked with my shirt dress, and I can’t wait to wear this combo again! Oh, and just for reference, I’m wearing a size small in the dress! I’m hoping it will look even better on when I finally decide to lay out in the sun and get a tan… one day. As soon as finals are over!
Now, let’s talk about this cross body. I first tried it on while I was shopping at Nordstrom. It’s surprisingly large inside, super comfortable, and matched with a lot. I love how it incorporates modern trends, such as the tassel, but keeps it classy with a beautiful fog color. It also matched with my nails… haha! A strange, but great coincidence. I highly recommend it. Especially for the upcoming summer season!

Hi Lauren,
Gorgeous as always!! I’ve been eying this dress for quite some time. I was curious if it was see-through and it required a slip of some sort?
Love reading your blog every morning!
xoxo
Hi! Thank you so much, Chelsea! You’re so sweet. 🙂 I actually didn’t find it see-through at all. These photos were taken in daylight (which usually will show anything underneath that’s see-through) and I wore no slip! I never even knew it had see-through reviews, haha! I absolutely love it and highly recommend it. 🙂 It’s a classic dress and I promise… not see-through! xo
Hi Lauren,
I love your entire outfit. That was a great idea to add this necklace to your outfit! 🙂 It really stands out and completes the outfit. Love your style!

Love this dress! It looks like you were able to steam the wrinkles out perfectly! I bought a little handheld steamer at BBB which works for now, so I’m praying it doesn’t break anytime soon <3

This shirt dress looks so great on you! I’ve never worn a shirt dress before, but I’m always curious to see how people dress them up. I think this is my favorite out of all the ones I’ve seen. It’s just so feminine and perfect for spring.
Wow! That’s a huge compliment. Thank you SO much!!!
