Little Red Dress



Have you ever worn a bright red dress before?  I recently wore one for the first time to my best friend from West Point’s wedding in Boston, and let me tell you, it was such a blast to wear!!  I normally stick to more subdued colors for dresses (unless it’s pink, obviously), but when I saw this dress at H&M I had to have it.  I tend to shy away from things that scream “look at me!” but the fit was perfect, the lace detail was lady-like, and it was under $40…so I pretty much had no choice but to buy it.

I paired it with some leopard accents, a white coat, camel colored suede heels, subtle spotted tights (because it was freeeeeezing), and my new favorite Art Deco Starburst Chloe and Isabel earrings.   Best part is that the earrings look fancy but are only $38!  Check out my post here to see my other favorite pieces from Chloe and Isabel.

    As a fellow Army gal, it's so nice to see the flip side of wearing ACUs. You look amazing and chic!
