{lookbook} the not cute, cute dress.

I have ONE MONTH until my one year blogging anniversary (technically it would be August 18th) and I'm planning something huge for all of you loyal readers.  I'm curious as to how many new readers I can reach between now and then, so I'd love you forever if you'd send my blog link to anyone you think might enjoy it. Let's get this party started!






What I'm Wearing:
Dress: K-Mart (here) 
Shoes: Charlotte Russe (similar) 
Bag: Charming Charlie (similar) 
Accessories: Necklace: c/o InPink (here) Watch: Kohls (very old) Ring: ModToast 


I love this dress.  The Fiance does not.  It's times like these that I wonder if he's blind.  Though I will give it to him when he says that it's too big.  Yes, perhaps I should've bought the extra small.  But I don't do silly things like check size charts or wear clothes that fit me.  That sounds like something a real fashion blogger would do.

Whaaat? Definitely cute. Your fiance is mad.
I love the over-sized clutch too. How much of a pain is it to carry around?

haha. You do have a habit of loving clothes two sizes to big. But that is one of those special "Sarah-only" quirks that people love.

Just like dino-nuggets and tater tots, obviously!

I LOVE the dress!! I am actually looking for something for a wedding and my 10 year class reunion in a couple weeks, good to know I don't have to go to the big city to find something! Kmart is really stepping up:)

The belt was a nice touch to make it more form fitting. I'm surprised the fiance didn't like it once you had added the belt! It's a stunning dress! And your blogging anniversary is my wedding day! Ah!

so far, as far as i can tell, he has always been wrong about what is cute on you and what isn't. you look adorable in this dress and i don't think it's ugly at all!

Haha. You're funny! I like loose dresses like that. I can wear them with a belt to look more polished and without for a comfy, laud-back look. The best of both worlds! - Carla

Boy will be boy. Whenever I ask my husband for his opinion on an outfit and he doesn't the outfit, he would say " Why are you asking me, I don't know anything about fashion." SMH BTW the dress is adorable on you.

Bravoe Runway said...

Why does he not like this dress? I like it, the colours are great, the pattern is very in trend right now, and the belt looks great with it, and the shoes. Whatever, guys are silly sometimes.

Amy said...

It's not awful, but not my fav. :)

simplyvonne said...

Lindsay from Black + Blonde One said...

Dude. Is fiance blind? SO CUTE!

Rhe Christine said...

Well as it looks from here the fit looks good. It's got a short dress flowy feel going on. I don't think not looks inordinately big. Might have to hustle myself over to Kmart ;)

Tara Marie said...

Its not too big. Tell him he's silly. Maybe he wants you to wear something tight instead ;)

Tiffany said...

Well, if you ever decide that you want to get rid of that dress, I'll take it off your hands! lol Seriously, it's SO cute! I mean, if you're giving stuff away, I'll take your smokin' hot shoes, too. =)

Brooke @ Inside-Out Design said...

I love the dress!! I actually think it's cute that it's slightly loose; I've been doing a similar look with looser tops belted in the middle. And oh.my.goodness. THE SHOES! I wan't to run straight to Charlotte Russe right this freaking second and buy them!!

Grace said...

The fiance clearrrly is mistaken! This dress is stunning on you! Happy almost one blogging year!
