Hello Lovelies! Sorry I went MIA! Life got a little out of control, and the last thing on my To-Do List was the blog. I didn’t finish my list. It was go, go, go, and then I got to enjoy an extended weekend with my girlfriends. Best time ever! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and a great start to the week!
If you follow me on Instagram, you saw the preview of this outfit with my arm party. I wore this to a Dwell with Dignity (DwD) event a few weeks ago. My bangs have been driving me crazy so I’m wearing my hair in what I call a “doggie do”. It reminds me of a dog hairstyle after visiting the groomers – I’m just missing the small bow! LOL!
Was it supposed to worn this way??
The dress and white necklace are new-to-me finds from the one of my favorite consignment boutiques, Feminine Fashions. It was less than $20! I was so excited about the dress and thought it was perfect for the DwD event! When I got home, I told the hubby that I got some funny looks. I started laughing when I looked in the mirror… maybe I wore the dress BACKWARD?? I switched it around and asked Mr. S what he thought. We both laughed because we couldn’t tell! Anyhow, I think I wore it correctly to the event. YOU be the judge!

Gorgeous dress, perfect outfit for the event :) I like it with the slit at the front! One of those items you can wear forward or backwards :)

You find the cutest stuff at consignment and thrift stores! And you have the vision to take something, have it tailored, and turned into a great modern piece! Such great style, Sam.

Love the dress both ways but I can completely see why you’d be confused! I love your hair that way – love the soft waves and the bangs pulled back.
Such a beautiful dress!! I think you rock it both ways!!

That print is beautiful! I wouldn’t have thought it was backwards…it looks good both ways, I think :)
Interesting dress and print! Strangely it looks good both ways pretty multi functional that one :)

I’m loving this dress both ways, it’s such a pretty spring piece! Tucker really knocked it out of the park with their patterns this spring. Love your arm party too :)

LOL at the “doggie do”…I totally see it since you mentioned it, haha. ;-)

You can tell him that wearing dresses backwards is the new trend ;)
p.s I have a post about how to style bangs when you don’t want to wear them down… that’s one of the downsides of bangs… some days they don’t cooperate!
