grechen outfit july 15 2009

Obviously I haven’t done anything with my hair yet, it’s still a mess. Actually here, it was still drying and disheveled.

This DarylK dress is about 5 years old, and it’s one of my favorite dresses. I wore it a lot when I first got it, then not so much the last couple of years. I love that the waist is elasticized, but the pleating around it tends to add bulk to my middle and hips (right where I don’t need any), so I end up not wearing it all that much. It’s also very thin and transparent, so I always have to wear a slip with it, something I’m not crazy about in 90 degree heat. But…I am still trying to resurrect old favorites from my closet and thought I’d give it another run!

Oh, and I know it’s not technically a LBD, but it’s MY version of a LBD – casual & easy.

What I’m wearing:

DarylK dress
Swedish Hasbeens sandals

Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Bag in tangerine

i have a calypso dress that’s very similar – easy, breezy, and perfect for all summer occasions. i think the punchy color of your bag makes the overall look playful and fun.
