Happy Fashion Friday!
It's been a good, but rainy week in the mountains. I've almost been glad because it's given me a chance to catch up on rest from last week. I hope you had a nice week too.
Today's Fashion Friday is actually the dress I got in Austin. I really wanted a light and summery boho dress shaped like this, but tried on approximately 1002 and they all looked like tents on me. I had practically given up when I found this one!
I liked the way it has the trendy shape, but it's not too huge.
From my years of picking out clothes for TV, I normally gravitate towards more saturated colors. I know they photograph better, but it's nice to mix it up and have something fun like this. In fact I'd say this dress is the polar opposite from my TV news dress collection. 🙂
I paired the dress with this super fun tassel necklace I got at a boutique in Asheville and a bracelet Marilyn got me for my birthday a few years ago.
For the shoes, I wore my Jack Rogers again. I have been living in them this summer. I'm going to have to wear a different pair for Fashion Friday though just to mix it up.
I hope you all have a beautiful weekend!

Absolutely love this! Perfect for summer, and it will also look great with tights and a cardi in fall.

I hadn't thought about that yet! Great idea! It would totally work with my cowboy boots too.

Cute dress! That style is hard to find that doesn't make a person look too big- nice choice! Have a great weekend!
