STRIPED TIE WAIST DRESS FOR SUMMER

Good morning ladies. I said, GOOD MORNING, LADIES!!! Do you remember going to school and the teacher repeating himself so that you would answer him? That is how I sometimes feel when I hop on the blog. I want to say, “hello…are you there?” I am just like all of you who are on FaceBook. You know what I mean; you post a picture, and then you check back regularly to see if anyone “liked” or commented on your post. That is how I am with the blog too.
Yesterday I posted an outfit that only got two comments. That, of course, makes me think that you didn’t like the look. Maybe you were raised with the saying, “if you don’t have something nice to say, then don’t say anything at all.” Lol! I guess that silence speaks volumes. Hahaha! So, I decided to give you an outfit today that you would feel compelled to comment on. Let’s see how many comments I can get.
So, let’s start with the colorful pink cardigan. I found three of these on sale for 9.99 at Old Navy about a month ago. The cardigan is long-sleeved, so that is probably why it was on sale. Long sleeves do not bother me since I can quickly push them up to make a 3/4 sleeve look. I took advantage of the sale and bought a blue one and a white one. It is still on sale, not as much as when I bought it, but it is still a great price. Here is the link.
Don’t go looking for this cute silver necklace in Plunder Designs. This was a necklace that I bought from Chloe & Isabel at least two years ago. The confetti earrings were a part of last months Plunder Posse set, but I wanted to show you how to incorporate a printed earring into an outfit with stripes.

I love how neutral these shoes are when you wear them. They almost look like you are walking around bare-footed. Lol! These are by BP, and I bought them when I went on my 1,000 Nordstrom shopping spree. These were less than 60.00, so they didn’t take up much of my money. Lol! Here is the link to these block heeled sandals, and then there are a few more below that you might like.

This striped dress is adorable! I love the stripes, and I love how the neckline is a crossover wrap style. It was a tad bit low for me, so I easily added a lace camisole under the dress for a little more modesty. I like the tie at the waist, even though I am not a fan of drawing attention to the area where I have the most problem. I think that all of the stripes end of creating a camouflage of some sort, and it doesn’t look that bad, especially if you add a cardigan as I did. The waist might be cinched, but the bottom half flares out to create a nice hourglass look. The best part about the dress is that it is an extra 60% off!!! Here is the link.
I thought that you might want to see an up-close photo of the tie.
Well, was I right? Is this outfit comment-worthy??? I hope so because it is depressing putting your picture out on the internet for the entire world to see and only getting two comments. Lol!
