What I’m Wearing: Silk & Embellishments


There’s something about putting on a silk dress that makes my heart happy. It just feels good. And when you feel good you look good. And when the dress is as pretty as this Calypso silk dress, well then I call that lucky.

It has the prettiest bead embellishments on the front and down the sides.

And these J.Crew Janey flats are a favorite in my closet. Don’t you love that little gold heel? I wear them with so much. They come in a zillion different colors and patterns, but really, I counted 19 different variations. That’s awesome.

I’m looking forward to pairing this dress with my Rosmore Booties this fall, too! Woop woop.
