The Find: A Pretty Dress of Summer

Jun 13, 2022

I do a lot of window shopping for this blog.  And one of the things that I am always on the lookout for is what I like to call the “throw on” dress — a dress you can put on with no effort and look stunning in.  This is one of those dresses.

I adore the floral print on this Velvet Heart dress.  It has a cute puff sleeve that isn’t so voluminous it will overwhelm your frame.  And the flouncy skirt is a fun look for summer.

I would wear this dress to brunch, on a relaxed date (with flat sandals), or to a lunch with friends.  It’s the kind of dress that I would put on when I was running late to look like I had all the time in the world to get ready.

The Velvet Heart brand also makes this print in a drop waist dress.  And this chambray utility dress would be a great dress for casual Friday or a fun trip (wear it with cute sneakers).

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
