As the weather starts to warm, I'm able to open up a little more of my wardrobe for the Fashion Challenge. However, not all my dresses are work appropriate, and I really debated wearing this one today. I at least have a little white sweater I can wear over it while in the office.
The dress in question is the Marc by Marc Jacobs Jacquard Ruched Dress in Navy. The style is at least a year old, so I was only able to find it online at this obscure site. I also found a version of the dress as a top on ebay.
I love the color of this dress, described as "admiral blue." It is really more of a blue-purple -- not exactly navy, but close. If you look closely at the material, you can also see stars and polka dots etched into the material. It's really a very feminine, cute dress.
I paired the dress with my L.A.M.B. Gorgeous Peep-Toe Pumps in Bronze because I like the gold/blue color combination.
Last night was fairly quiet in our household, although I did not manage to go to bed as early as I originally planned. I do feel like I finally got a good night's sleep, so maybe I am starting to get used to the time change after all. It has also been fabulous to have so many hours of daylight left at the end of the day.
I am also starting to look forward to the weekend, when my sister, Gail, will be in town. The three sisters plan to have a girls night on Saturday night, so I can't wait! Too bad it's only Wednesday...
