I’m all about oranges, corals, and neons this summer. Can’t seem to get enough (as evidenced here and here, and oh yeah, here). Keeping with the theme, I picked this dress up at The Garment District a few weeks back. The super simple cut with a drawstring waist, floaty fabric that doesn’t cling (or wrinkle) in the heat, and a freshly-squeezed orange color make it easy to wear when the temperatures are spiking 90º+ in Kansas City. (Also, welcome back, big hair!)
To complete the look: a pair of strappy white sandals, my favorite necklace of all time, and a few bangles. I don’t know about you, but my heavy statement necklaces and stacks of bracelets get put on the back burner when it’s fry-an-egg-on-any-surface hot outside.
Kansas City girls, have you checked out KC Garment District? Great selection, much of which is totally reasonably priced (I think I paid $60 or so for the dress above, for example), and an awesome atmosphere (they have a BAR in the center). They’re at 13th and Main downtown; you should drop by!
Cheers to Thursday, ladies ‘n gents. Hope you have a lovely weekend ahead!
Linking up today with Vodka Infused Lemonade, Stylin in St. Louis, I’m Perfectly Human + Soul & Spirit, VMG206, Midwest Bloggers, and Style Elixir.
you look beach-ready in this dress! i really need to get a bit more adventurous with my colors. also, we are total hair twins! not color-wise, but definitely waves and volume wise, haha

I definitely can’t be bothered with layers upon layers of jewels when it’s stinking hot out! I don’t know how some people mange a stack of bracelets when I want to throw mine out hahaha! Seriously loving your fabulous big hair!

Ha totally agree, in fact clothing in general should be optional when it’s fry-an-egg-on-any-surface hot! 😛 Love that necklace too girly!

Your white Zara sandals are so stylish, I love how thin the straps are!! Your pedicure is so bright and colourful, I’ve seen people opting for darker pedicures lately so this is super refreshing to see! Have a great weekend! 🙂

So gorgeous! Love this dress on you!! I wish we had a store in Jackson with a bar in the middle (although that would lead to drunk binge shopping which is never a good thing). Have a fab weekend love!

Fab color, fab dress! I love flowy dresses in the summer and I agree about heavy jewelry. I often skip it all together in hot weather! Except earrings, I always wear earrings!
