If I told you that the most expensive item in this outfit was the necklace, would you believe me?
Given my thrifty-deal-hunting-tendencies, you probably would.
Yup, this $6.80 necklace was more expensive than the dress ($3) and the shoes ($4.39).
I am so glad I had Em take pictures of this outfit for me. I originally wore this to an engagement party for my husband’s cousin. We were so rushed that day (isn’t that another theme in my life?) and I didn’t have time to take pictures. I love this dress. The fabric is thick yet comfortable, and I like the sparkly details on the hem. I feel feminine and classy.
The ironic thing is that I’ll be missing Em’s next Blogger’s Day Out to do something so not sparkly. My family will be camping with our boys’ cub scout pack. So, yeah … pretty much the exact opposite of getting glammed up to take pictures.
But, honestly? I’ll take a roasted marshmallow over sparkles any day. #keepinitreal
