This Spring I’ve been eyeing several flirty feminine dresses all with a common theme: a lovely floral pattern on a lush green backdrop. What’s more, they are all comfortable and flattering. I’ve already become the proud owner of two of these dresses and I have my sights set on another. After all, I did just re-examine my wardrobe through the lens of The KonMari Method and pare down my belongings to just a few of my very favorites. It’s time to repopulate my closet with a few special items that truly represent my style.
This silky maxi dress from ModCloth is to die for. The wrap around tie-waist is super flattering, as are those fluttery sleeves and v- shaped neckline. The full-length maxi-ness of it means that you can wear it without fear of flashing random passersby, even whilst bending down to pick up a baby or two.
On the shorter side, this long-sleeved cinched waist number from Old Navy cost me a mere $20 on sale and I couldn’t be more thrilled with it. The fabric looks high quality and the tailoring is flattering too. My only regret is that they were sold out of the “Tall” option in my size, so I had to resort to regular sizing on this dress. Thankfully it was still plenty long enough even on my 5’10 frame. The muted green color and small floral pattern are so soft and beautiful, that I can’t help but feel pretty when I wear this dress.
I’ve paired both dresses here with my favorite clogs of all time: these wine colored Sweedish kicks. I purchased mine in size 11 straight from the MIA shoes website but they are also available up to size 10 from Nordstrom and Zappos. Heed my warning though! They absolutely run one size too small. I’m almost always a size 10 and I had to order up to size 11.
