Marianne: Hear Me Out.
Oh, y'all. Don't give up on me, because here I am wearing yet another shirtdress. I am powerless to their charms, they are inexpensive, nursing-friendly, and comfortable. But hey, this one is a snake print! I know, you hear snake print dress and your mind goes to...no. And NO! And OMG NOOOOO (that one is only $7 and looks it). But hear me out, isn't this kind of great?
Note to self: remove the hair tie from your wrist before taking photos. SIGH. Anyway, this dress has a sheer outer layer and a built-in slip, and I am pretty much in love. I took a close up so you could see the subtle grey snake print (which I think is a lot more chic than a more bold print like this). Also, good hair day (and hot pink lips!):
The shoes are old Chie Mihara by way of eBay, but you can find similar colors or a pretty close suede/buckle detail (or these if you want a lower heel) this fall. I won't bother talking about the bag since I have carried it every day since I bought it. That's the sign of a good investment, wouldn't you say?
So what do you think? Would you rock the snakeskin? Or do I look one step away from an '80's hair band video?

I tried on that dress at ON on Friday and I just couldn't decide. The size I tried on was maybe just a tad too small? Also, it felt just a teeny bit short on me (my legs aren't as great as yours), but I could maybe imagine it with boots. I just wasn't sure it was super flattering on me. It looks great on you, though! Kind of making me rethink it.
ReplyDeleteI wore it this weekend with grey tights and brown boots and liked it even more! I was between sizes but sized up to keep it from pulling when I sat down.
DeleteI love it! It's super flattering, and the subtle print works!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress, but love the shoes even more! Dets?
ReplyDeleteThey are Chie Mihara, at least a couple of years old. I bought them off of eBay and they didn't come with a box, so I don't know the style name. I'm sorry I'm not more help!
DeleteOMG THOSE SHOES. I need.
ReplyDeleteLove the dress and shoes!
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are to die for...to ebay I go!
