WIW: Feeling Retro

It's all about the maxi dress this week! And this striped number I picked up at the Old Navy Blogger Night gives off a great retro vibe. Playing on that retro feel, I paired this dress with a gold turban headband from Jameson Monroe. There are so many great turban headbands available right now, but this gold one just grabbed my attention.

Beyond the fun 70's vibe this dress gives off, it's fast becoming a quick go-to piece when I'm in a hurry or too busy to put together an outfit. This week has been an absolutely crazy one with, Big Sis starting preschool, a trip to Disneyland, playdates, and dance class too. So there's nothing better then a great maxi dress that looks stylish without trying. And the swing fit of this maxi in particular leaves so much room for movement and feels so soft and airy which with the latest heat wave is totally necessary.

WIW: Take A Bow

As you already know I'm a sucker for a cute back. So when this adorable bow back maxi dress appeared on Very Jane I immediately ordered it. And thank goodness I did because this dress sold like hot cakes. 

I love shirts and dresses that have a little back detail because you can get away with showing some skin there without looking scandalous. And how cute is this mint bow!? I made sure to match my mint bow with my mint Steve Madden gladiator sandals. My sister kept telling me this was very Dr. Seuss of me.

It pops up there every so often and in various colors too.

Took my bow back out for some mexican food. Yum! Can't beat that on a hot day.

A little stop into the Sweet Shoppe is always necessary when in Old Town. So much candy, I could barely contain myself.
