Turquoise Chevron Dress. . . It's a mini!



Everly Turquoise Chevron Dress, Piperlime.com ($64)

It has been a long weekend!  Once again my husband had to work today, but not before we got to go to brunch with another couple.  I’ve had this dress for a few weeks and was excited to have an opportunity to wear it.  When I saw it on Piperlime.com, I thought it would be a cute dress for work, but when it arrived and I tried it on, it was abundantly clear that I would NOT be wearing this to work!  It was much shorter than I was expecting.  I loved the turquoise and the chevron print, so I decided to keep it, even though I haven’t worn a hem line this short since college! 

The dress is by Everly and I got the Size Small.  It fit nicely every where, but I would definitely not mind if it were a couple of inches longer!  As a frame of reference, I’m 5’8” the dress fell at least 4 inches above my knees.  I tried not to be self conscious in the dress, otherwise it’s not worth wearing, but I definitely made sure I sat down very carefully and found myself smoothing out the sides to make sure it didn’t ride up! 

I paired the dress with a mustard yellow platform wedge by Madden Girl and a Yellow and green necklace from the Shops at 5807 and yellow blown glass earrings.  Oh, I almost forgot, my favorite fashion accessory; my faux pony tail!  I call her "Audrey" and I love her!  I lost so much hair after having my son, that I finally bought a litte pony tail to wear on the weekends until my hair returns back to normal.
