THE LADY IN RED
I am so sorry about the quality of these pictures. I can tell you that Charleston is very humid! Everyone was talking about how their hair was going crazy with the weather. Well, my hair seemed to do fine but my camera was not as happy. It fogged up on me and we could not get it to acclimate before the Uber driver showed up. I loved this dress and I wanted to be able to share it with you in a setting other than my front porch. It is too pretty and fancy to just be photographed on the porch. Lol!
I got TONS of compliments on this dress when I wore it to the Gala. When you attend a Gala with about 100 beautiful women in their 30’s it is hard to compete with them. Especially when the event you are attending is skincare related, you know everyone there had flawless skin and thick long lashes. Lol! I ordered this Donna Morgan dress online from TJ Maxx and it fit perfectly. I normally wear a size 10 in everything except when it comes to dresses. I almost always buy a size larger in dresses, I have no idea why, so this is a size 12. It is a crepe dress with attached bows. It also has the shoulder straps that can be removed if you want, they just snap to the dress. I wore the straps because I didn’t have to worry about the dress dropping down while we were dancing. Yes, I said dancing.
I did wear some bling bracelets. The Georgia and the Laurel bracelets are on my left arm. These are elastic bracelets so they are very comfortable and easy to put on and get off. You might also notice that I have on a glow-in-the-dark bracelet that everyone was supposed to wear to go to the Gala. I at least got one that matched. Haha! One the right arm I have on several Alex and Ani bracelets and the Chalon and the Hugo bracelets. They are 9″ bangles that have a magnetic closure.
I love these beautiful Varsha sandals c/o Nina Shoes. These sandals are perfect for an evening out on the town. They are classy and edgy at the same time. The navy satin and rhinestones really add some “sass” to the dress. I do love my “sass.” Lol!!! These are on sale right now for $20.00 off so grab them while you can.
I am almost at 6000 email subscribers! I really appreciate it when you sign up for these emails since that is something that brands and advertisers look for. I know that you may access me from another way like FaceBook or Instagram but “brands” like to see a large email subscription list. So, I am asking you to sign up if you don’t mind, it would really help me. The comment section is at the end of the post, so keep scrolling. I look forward to reading all the comments, they make my day. Be sure to follow me on Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

you look amazing in this red dress, date night
Beautiful as always. Love the red dress. I do the same thing in dresses, I always have to get a size or 2 larger. Hmmm.
