Hey loves! I’m back from my staycation! 😀 Exhausted from all the activities we did but it was so worth it! 😀
Anyway, I love love loooove this maxi. I picked it up during the awesome 60% off sale that City Chic had and had the inner skirt shortened a little as the length was just a bit too long for me. It has satin ribbons that you can tie together to create a draped skirt but I prefer it down. 😀 Toned down the dressiness of the look with the army jacket and tangled/chain-y/mixed up necklaces. 😀
Also, finally unpacked my beloved Aggie wedges from Topshop. Love them so much I can hardly bear to wear them! I tend to do that with items I love–I’ll keep something in its packaging or wear it less because I don’t want to break/stain/scratch it. Anyone else do this?! My friends think I’m a little neurotic for it. LOL
Yours, Etc.

P.S. Thanks for all the amazing comments on my last outfit post–I read every single one and can’t tell you how much I appreciate them! ♥ you guys!

    You may well be Princess Allison (or even Queen Allison) in these pictures because you absolutely rule with style! This entire outfit is amazing along with the many accessories. I have always loved maxi dresses. Never a problem with them, and this one is surely lovely. The necklaces are truly charming, and I will grant you that the jacket adds some toughness.

    Anyhow, this is wonderful!

    I shrieked a little when I saw this outfit, it's so FABULOUS!! I like that you paired up the jacket as a tough element and the necklace for sparkles.

    Love this outfit! The dress and shoes are to die for.

    The sheer maxi is beautiful. I really wish City Chic would carry everything in their full range of sizes but it looks like they are phasing out the larger ones…
