i seriously swooned over this dress in the fall anthro catalog. i love the colors and the abstract print reminds a little of monet's water lillies. it finally went on sale and it was mine! once it finally arrived and i tried it on i didn't love it immediately. it was a little long and the gathering at the top hit me in a funny and not particularly flattering place. i made a quick fix by twisting the straps under my bra straps to raise the top up to where it looks best on me. i'll have to take it to have it hemmed and the straps shortened but i'm now in love with it. embracing my new love of the colored tights i couldn't wait to wear these textured tights from hue. i spent a little more on these then i usually do on tights but they look great and i think it's a worthy investment. i paired the look with my favorite boyfriend cardigan from target. i really like the mix of the floral pattern with the stripes. this is the perfect outfit for a beautiful fall day.
