Keeping the Clouds Away

It's a sunny, low-humidity day in Atlanta, and I am celebrating in this bright yellow dress from Karen Millen. You can't help but have an upbeat disposition in such a bright color!

The Dress

Karen Millen Yellow Lace-Up Cotton Dress


I used to shy away from wearing yellow, because I felt like it wasn't a good match with my olive (Italian) skin. I definitely have yellow undertones, so I have always worried that wearing yellow would make me look like I had jaundice. Maybe my little bit of a tan helps the ensemble work. I just love the vibrant hue, and the dress overall is so cute, with tiny cutouts and a multi-colored band at the waist.

Where to Buy

Bloomindale's was carrying the dress, but it's sold out online. You can try calling a store to see if they still have any dresses in stock. I did that once and scored a great deal on a Karen Millen dress that was no longer available online. The Karen Millen website also has select sizes still available.

Size Up in Karen Millen

Karen Millen is a British brand, so remember to go one size up when trying on or purchasing clothing. The dress I have on is a US size six, and I am usually a size four in fit and flare dresses.

The Shoes

Shoes: Schutz Meera Beaded Sandals

You can still buy the sandals online at Amazon and Saks. They are super cute sandals: white overall with orange and yellow beads. They should go perfectly with any of the orange and yellow dresses in my closet.


As Seen On TV

Ginger Zee recently wore the dress on Good Morning America! Both she and Amy Robach just adore this brand and wear it quite frequently (at least lately).
