Maybe I’m crossing the line into Easter parade float decor with this white fringed waffle knit dresss, but I don’t even care. It’s fun and interesting but still clean, and there’s a fringe feature– a huge trend for spring + summer. (Takes me back to my Jem and the Hologram days, where we would slice up our over-sized neon t-shirts and fringe out the sleeves.) The dress strikes the right combo of boxy cut + short hemline, which means the legs are officially out for the new season.
No worries about that ol’ no-white-before-Memorial-Day rule; the material here is heavy enough (ie, not chiffon or linen) that the dress plays for mid-March. Plus, rules are meant to be broken anyway, right?
My lovely friends at The Garment District let me wear this bright number as part of the events for Kansas City Fashion Week. They always find me the latest ‘n greatest; thanks girls!

I love this dress on you! Plus, it has such a great boho feel to it. Perfect for this time of year. Now, if the weather would just cooperate. xo, Amanda
Love this sheath dress on you. Very chic. Also right on trend the the fringe craze. Not to mention the waffle texture is really nice. Gives it something a little different than the average dress.
