Floating

Floating Roses print from last year was one of my favorites. I got the Winsome dress first and, after debating a lot, I added the skirt. I love them both. I usually try to choose only one item in a unique print. I find that if I buy more than one, I still end up wearing one and neglecting the others.

I wore the dress for Christmas Eve dinner last year and then for Valentines Day date (see here). I think I will wear it again this year to one of the Holiday's parties. I love the fact that the print is bright and definitely reads red but it is not a solid which makes it easier to wear it, more casual and less sexy.

I wore the skirt several times, mostly with black (see here) but I wanted to try something different. I thought the polka dot boy shirt will be perfect with it. Everything else stayed black to ground the two patterns.

I was working from home that day and I wanted a casual vibe, so I untucked and tied the shirt and wore my motorcycle Ryder boots. If I was going to the office and wanted a more conservative look, I would tuck the shirt in and swap the Ryder boots for black Valentinas.

I felt perfectly appropriate for dropping my daughter off at school and running some errands in the morning.

I also tried it with a gray sweatshirt and tights for even more casual option. This outfit was super comfortable and I actually worked in it all day at home without feeling a need to change into a pair of jeans or cords.

The weather was beautiful that day and I wanted to capture some of that afternoon sun in the pictures so I bribed my daughter into snapping some more.

I usually regret buying multiples in the same print, but this time I am glad I got both the skirt and the dress.
